Coloring Commission - CallMePo - Daphne



In a more recent coloring commission from Desscribe, they sent me another art piece drawn by CallMePo of a character from a very obscure comic strip done in Made Magazine called "Hoohah".  The style of which was very reminiscent of Robert Crumb.  If you don't know who they are, I would recommend looking them up or check out the autobiographical movie "Crumb" or even check out the movie "American Splendor" that delves into the writer Harvey Peekar who was the writer of the underground comic and Robert Crumb was the artist for it for a time. 

As for the comic for which this piece is derived, it involves a small ghost story in which Daphne and a rather fear prone man find themselves out of gas on a road and a seemingly abandoned house. 

It was asked of me to create a piece in which it was on a scary background, but that seemed pretty simple to do compared to the folded frills of Daphne's top.  Coming to that part and coloring it I coudln't help but feel a great swell of pity for CallMePo when he drew that.  If you think drawing that part, imagine trying to color it with all those curves and bends and trying to imagine where the light is hitting it. 

Afterwards, it was a simply matter of laying down the wood floor pattern and the walls. 

Thank you to CallMePo and Desscribe for allowing me to color this piece. 

If you're interested in this art piece and want to see more please consider commissioning me to color a line art or become a patron at my Patreon

Note:  All characters depicted here are 18 years of age or older.
