Coloring Commission - CallMePo - Desscribe - Swashing Her Buckle



Here we have a coloring commission made to me by Desscribe of a lineart they made to CallMePo

Original lineart shown here:  Swashing Her Buckle

When I saw it, I knew it was going to be a fun one to color.  I even had a few ideas for a background.  One of the ideas that I had for a background was that it would be the interior of a spaceship a bit like one of the previous coloring commissions that Desscribe had asked of me.  Or another possibility that I had in mind was something akin to Boris Vallejo’s work where the two of them would be standing on a rock and the beautiful glory of space with twinkling stars and swirling nebula gas clouds would be behind them.

Unfortunately, due to budget constraints, Desscribe could only commission me to color the two people in this picture.  The people, by the way, are Corsair and Katherine Summers: the parents of Scott and Alex Summers (Cyclops and Havoc of the X-men Comics).  So, thanks to Desscribe providing some scans of the comics where the two characters had made their appearance I had something to go on as far as coloring goes.

After it was done, all I needed to do was just put in a simple shadow and that was it.  Desscribe was happy with it so that means I did quite well.  Though I do hope that I get an opportunity to put in a background sometime in the future.
