Artist's Comments

This is the first page I colored in issue 26 of Marvel Knights' Captain America. The pencils are by Chris Bachalo and inks by Tim Townsend. I did a few things I don't normally do on this one. First off I went out and took photos of the sky to find a nice subtle backdrop for this pic. Chris likes to use photos in his colors, so I thought I'd keep with it. Another thing is that Chris only drew about 4 bombs in this pic, so the small ones at the top of the page were from me. I just duplicate the ones there and scaled them down.

Nifty lil'tricks there - I guess you do need to use a few to finish pages as quickly as possible with the same level of quality. The sky is blended in well, doesn't look out of place at all and the textures on the bombs are groovy - nicely done.

course, that would be why you get paid the big comic book bucks...

Love the way you used somber, dullish colors in this. They're quieter reds and blues to go with the browns, but still so vibrant somehow! Amazing!

Damn, if I were only this good! xp

I like the combo of smooth color with the newsprint style bombs... great sky too!

This piece rocks. Great golden age looking Captain America. The use of colour and textures is what really sets this off.

IT'S CAP!
Wonderful job, i LOVE the muted tones in this one, really gives it an older look. This is just a wonderful pic. Wonderful work!

Fav someone... Anyone, or at the very least comment. There really is nothing like knowing someone is looking, or likes what you've done. If it's me, I'll try and return whatever I can.
