[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Everyone loves a good collab!
You never know what direction your piece will go or what vision someone else may have for your art.
I've participated in like 20 of them and even created a thread specifically for them on the 606
We need something like that here so I'm starting up a thread here just for collaborations.
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]For example.
----------------------------
Really proud of this one as it's the result of a quadruple collab.
It was originally the prize for a contest I held and
was supposed to be just a pencil drawing.
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Then the winner (Goblin Queen) put it up in the collab thread on the CoH 606 forums
and 3 other artists applied their talents to it helping to make it what it is today.
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Darth Delicious was the first, she put down some flats and the lightning bolt for his iris.
Ransim then came along and added a scale pattern to him.
H3nRi then added the armor plate.
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Finally I came back in finished the coloring, darkened the whole
image into a night scene and added the lightning. This was the final result.
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Some thoughts from experience
--------------------------
1. Keep it polite: Kinda goes without saying but everyone is coming from different backgrounds and
skill levels, it's not about perfection, it's about working together and learning from each other.
2. Communication is key: If you are unsure about something, ask. Also a quick post to
announce what you are working on is helpful (i.e. "hey I'm going to ink these
lines") in case multiple projects spring up around the same piece.
3. The goal is addition not subtraction: Try to add something to the existing piece without
taking too much away. Some adjustment and tweaking should be fine but
ground up redraws or complete paint-overs are for another thread.

He has other suits though so there is some leeway if you want to go another direction with the hair/skin/eyes.
I'd fire up Icon and post all his suits here but since this is only a bust it shouldn't be a problem. [/color][/b][/size][/font]

Very nice, I like the evolution of the work!
I might have over done it with the fire... lol...
[img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/75791103/COT/Brahn-face2.jpg[/img]
So.... PLEASE don't make fun of my awfulness, but I loved both versions of Orion that LJ painted and wanted to combine the very different aesthetics into a single look.... and basically just ended up ruining some of his awesome art.....
Again, no offense intended to him, and please do check out the (unruined) originals on his thread HERE
So, this is what I came up with... keeping the George Washington coat "pattern" on a jumpsuit, and the color aesthetic of the original (put the cowl back on but also added a gold stripe down the legs)
please continue to ignore the hands....
Other than my awful abilities at art... I really like this latest mix of LJ's two great pieces...... and other than my awful abilities... any thoughts/comments on the look?

I actually have an unfinished piece of that character somewhere... done last year I think. Yipes, not even sure where to look for that... it maybe titled Untitled... I know it's only in the gray stages, doy this is gonna bug me till I find it.
GH: I gotta fix that hand, it's killing me... I'll put together your changes too. I just reread the description and totally missed the red accents and that he has gold boots.
Looks like it's revision day pour moi...
[color=#FD5185]Well, I had a go (for one hour) at it aswell, though hands are not my strong suit, so I barely touched those [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Tong.png[/img]
I took Bobby's version to work on though, to keep as much of his work as possible and my goal was to get the costume that was suggested.[/color]

I'm really liking where this is leading :D
though I definitely have to say the gold piping along the ribs definitly need to be pointy at the sternum, or it loses the "coat" vibe (or is that just me?)
also, i'm not sure which is better, the putty-grey, or black (I'm partial to grey, cause I like neutral tones, as they're atypical and thus more unique ;))
anyone have an aesthetic opinion? Is the higher contrast black a better fit... does it make a bigger statement.... or does the unusualness of the duller/faded blues and greys come across as more individual and unique...????

[color=#FD5185]Okay... *blushes* I couldn't let it go, so I worked another 20 minutes on it. Now looking at proportions and made the gold stripe pointer as you suggested, GH. Also added a few more highlights (he might be a little too muscular now though) and fixed the missing parts of the background which I accidentally caused in the previous version. And finally added both Bobby's and my signature. Eventhough I still see things that may still need some work... I'm gonna let it go *nods seriously* I'll leave that up to someone else! There's room for another signature afterall [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Big%20Smile.png[/img]. This was fun! [/color]

Any colorist want to help me come up with the color blocking for my SG?
I've got some rough pencils i've done here: http://jaybezz.deviantart.com/gallery/ but I still don't have a real plan on how to execute them in color.
I'm looking at:
Black/Rubber/Gold
Yellow/Rubber/Grey
Blue/Rubber/Silver
Blue/Silver/Rubber
Tan/Brown/White
Red/Black/Gold
I don't need ALL these combinations but this is what i'm looking at atm. Anyhow if you're into it hit me up.
Crowd Control Enthusiast
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Just to be clear Jay are you meaning any of these color combinations might work for any of the characters
in the gallery you linked to? Or do you mean you need to decide on one setup for all of them
and these are the color options you've narrowed your choices down to?[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]
Also you may just want to pick one character, your favorite design perhaps and post that here if you
want to collaborate. Seems less daunting than the hundreds of possible combinations
you have now and is more in the spirit of the thread.

[IMG]http://i480.photobucket.com/albums/rr168/Christopher_Robin/Xll_zps220e8da8.jpg[/IMG]
I have ideas in my head as to which costume piece is which color but i don't know what I like until i see it.. and to see it I need more talent and technique than I have now.
The Leg Armor and Jacket are the same color and the stripes are the same color and the emblem is the same color but I can't decide on which combo gives the "feel" that I'm going for. For instance I like black/gold but fear it may "feel" to evil. Blue and Black may not have enough contrast. Blue and Silver I like but may be too "cop like". I just don't know till I see it.
Oh and if you were to use one model it would be:

The template is:
Tights/Pads/Emblems
I've uploaded a lot of swatch samples to http://sta.sh/2165gp2kp5y0 I picked the basic color but if you play with hue (using light blue instead of navy) and it comes out great I'm grateful for it.
Fingers crossed.
Crowd Control Enthusiast
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Well here's one possibility Jay.
I chose to try Blue (for the armor) Rubber (for the undersuit)
and Silver (for the emblems). I'm guessing you meant a shade of grey when you said rubber?
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]
Still not really a fan of the crotch button, as it's been called (it's more like a below-the-navel emblem now),
I think it might go better on the chest somewhere to bring it in line with the shoulder emblems
but that is just my opinion. The rest of the suit is pretty sweet though. Nice design.

Thank you much!! I like the contrast of color but can't help but feel the colored armor makes the look more "animated" than what I'm going for. I think i'd switch out the two (The rubber where the black is in your image).. Thanks I wouldn't have known unless/until you showed me.
seriously appreach'd
I like the Yellow but it makes me think of either AIM or the All New X-Factor.. I don't want to be seen as derivative.

[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] I do not know what you mean with "animated", but do you mean you'ld like to see the colors switched? Like this?

I may not have used the exact color CR used, but I tried to keep at least his shading. [/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]It's rather difficult for any artist to create something based on a variaty of ideas and still make something the owner of the char actually likes.
You can make it easier not only by actually chosing the color(s) and make the picture in your head more clear before asking people to draw or color stuff for you [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Smile.png[/img]. Perhaps using the CoH costume creator (which you can still use [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Yay.png[/img]) may be of help with chosing colors? The exact outfit can't be created, but there are simular options.

That's GREAT DD! The white triangles would be the same as the background to make the Δ symbol but I REALLY like that!
Now what would happen if the Blue were turned Red? Yellow?
WHen I say animated, the idea of having "blue armor" seems less in the realm of realism as having "rubber or chrome colored armor". Not that Iron Man isn't realistic.. it just seemed like a cartoon/animation medium and I want to go for more realism.
PS, you guys are great for doing that for me.. i have no idea how difficult it was for you but it's amazing to see!

And... my final bit... getting the colors on the armor right (although I really like the bronze). I wanted to push a bit of ancient armor rather than just raw iron - colors still not quite there, but it's best I can do.

All looks great MN!
Firstly I'm sending these to my SG mate. He will flip his lid (http://until-delta.guildportal.com/). Amazing work there!
The Red is actually appealing to me.. but I have the fear that Red/Rubber somehow translates to "evil". Blue seems more "Lawful". Our SG organization is government but not a governing body like police.. we're sanctioned espionage.
Does the blue translate better than the red or Is that just a "me" concern?

I have to say a huge thank you MikeNovember Seriously great work.

Thanks...
Not done completely - but enough to give some ideas on colors. Not thrilled with the silver or the gold on these as they're pretty quick. I'll share out the PSDs when I'm farther along.
As for blue/red good/evil... yes, blue is a calming color - which is one of the reasons it's used for police uniforms, blues, earth tones - - are calming so are often chosen for law enforcement. Red is an aggressive color so it's often used for military dress uniforms and uniforms designed to get peoples attention.
My own thought is - let your SG members decide - and allow them to use any of the color schemes.
Your uniforms are clearly defined. Your logos are clearly visible and they're clean and organized. Most 'evil' uniforms are darker, they're often tattered, dirty, gritty. So I doubt it is a problem and allowing some color choices is a good way to improve over all moral within an SG.
At it's peak KRTS - the SG I had, had 75 active members in the primarySG, and 38 in our Secondary, with similar numbers on the villain side.
Moral was always a problem. And since we Kings Row Taxi's -- our colors were yellow and black. We looked like bumble bees no matter what we did. We kept two rules... one we didn't care what you did with your costume so long as you had a costume that had yellow and black for 'ceremony' and when we were working as an 'official sg'. Most people would wear the colors with pride and no one ever had to ask, but it was the knowledge they had choices that made it more family and less authority.
On our big anniversary - we all wore colors and announced we were going to clear the hollows completely and hold it for 3 minutes. 60+ level 50s - all in yellow spaced evenly - all across he hollows dropping AOEs. Those are the moments your SG will remember - costumes? Eh. What you do when you're in them... priceless.
In your case your SG has 'a look' so color won't affect things so much since your visual look is very distinctive. I'd have patrol colors, stealth and battle suit colors as a way to explain it.
Just a thought.
I'll grab some of the other SG members and do some stuff with them so you can see what they'd look like.

Anyone who knows Vitality knows that no matter how bad the heads upstairs sanction him for it he'll be wearing black, LOL. He's invulnerable and pretty much does what he wants.
We are not a "large" type of SG. We're a group of about 8 players who play together with basically each other (we RP with others in game but we keep our number small purposefully). Uniforms are not for all SGs but they've become apart of us. They provide recognition from afar (when you see a DE:LTA agent you know it) and a sense of belonging together. The joy of having a costume set that is available to us exclusively is SO awesome that I want to make sure to get it right. And yes we'll likely all vote on color internally. I think the nostalgia of our old Blue and Silver will win out but I want to be sure the team knows Titan City is a whole new city for us to thanklessly save, just as we did Paragon and Millennium City.
- -
Crescentwave is the combination of costume that I envisioned originally. The leg plates and jacket being the silver as well. I'm sure Matt will just LOVE seeing her as a blonde (she's a rather PROUD brunette, hair-flipping socialite so that joke landed perfectly and you didn't even know it!)
Crowd Control Enthusiast
Wish I'd known her hair color sooner - Brunette is sooo much easier to deal with than blonde. LOL
I'll fix it (see below). Easy enough to do. I'm assuming that there's one for each SG member on your deviant page? I'm trying to collect them into a group... here's the first 3 - like I said, I'll get her hair brunette tomorrow and make sure you have access to the PSD if you want when I get finished adding them all in it.

In my tabletop game worlds (on the rare occasion any player thinks to ask, or to run an analysis), the Atlantean version of orichalcum (that the Romans were just guessing at) is about a 10.5% [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminum_bronze]aluminum bronze[/url], that takes enchantments very easily, and even without enchantments has good corrosion resistance. Of course, without easy access to electricity, it takes magic to refine the bauxite ^_^

Yeah... I'll play with it some more today since I have time. (Hates having time... loves to at least be able to play with things...)
I'm going to start dropping my psd (photoshop) files into the Collab section in this shared folder - which if anyone wants to start munching on anything I've done and posted here -- feel free to do so.
Spoiler Alert: I am told I tend to have insanely large PSDs -- so please also feel free to do horribly mean things to make them smaller. If you really can't open one - let me know and I'll flatten the layers with a large mallet until you can.
I'll also drop in a copy of my ABR (brushes) which I use. I've collected a couple hundred over the years - this is just the ones I use the most. It's basically various kinds of charcoal, pencil, ink, marker, feathering / shadow and smudge textures that's kind of a swiss army knife for me . So if you're sane, load it, remove all the brushes you don't need and resave it. It's 167 mb and it's a brush file - that's the kind of thing a nutter uses. (Eyes my current brush file at work ... over 320 mb... cringes...)
Also... Anyone who wants any other patterns, styles, brushes I've used - ask me and I'll drop'em here. I've got a collection that's massive - I think I have like 200 something Styles for different typography work alone. To be honest not even I know whats in there anymore - every time I see something I like or might be able to use, I've grabbed it and tossed it in my tools folder.

Wow! Awesome job everyone!! Caemgen looks great!! :D
Wow, I don't look at these boards for a few months and just look what happens! ;)
As for the eye color, armor color and such... There really is no right or correct version. Caemgen's always been very open to interpretation, partly because he's always been a work in progress in my head and partly because artists always just seem to put their own spin on him and I've always found that cool... This four way (is that legal??) looks awesome! Thanks a bunch to you all for wanting to spend time on him!

Okay... so fixed the nose a bit and the mouth being what it was... made the face really more feminine so... changed that up a bit...

LOL... actually that's the trim area from the photoshop file.
Its a comic art template I picked up on -- deviantart -- that nicely sets up layers and everything -- including the printed trim areas.

My brush lines, etc., bleed over it - but when printed its just the area you see inside the white. I turned off the matte layer - so you got to see the bleed over. I should have cropped it appropriately but ... I'm kinda lazy on most of my stuff.
I had been doing everything on a 10x15 300 px as I understand from Marvel that's their standard. May go back to that. It's nice to have the template but as I am not really doing this for an actual comic ... it's kind of silly.

Still think this was a cool pic! If I recall right this was the 1st Collab I was part of too.

[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] I put down some basic flats on Bobby's Kirby-esque inks if someone wants to have a go at them. Links below.

[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Yeah I remember Trioxin. It was a prize for one of my contests that Ransim won that became a multi-collab.
Thanks for posting it LG and for helping out. The background was done by a forumite named Soobooku.

Sweet!
Love the Kirby inks. I've always wondered... what people would look like in a 3D Kirby world. Let's face it we all admire Jack for being a genius but there is ZERO doubt he and Steve Ditko weren't on acid half the time.
I put down some basic flats and tones to get the Masked Strike started.
Feel free to take it from here if you like.

[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Oooh! My hands are itching! *giggles* But I don't have time today... have to visit two friends who just got babies...
I won't be able to work on it until tomorrow... so I'm gonna leave it for now, see if anyone else picks it up first [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Smile.png[/img] [/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Also, great first draft on Cheat-Ra and Sherotica. Just wondering ... the lines on the female are lighter than on the other char. Was that planned?[/color][/b][/size][/font]

Wow nice work on the eyes and lips!!
Already starting to make this pic "pop".
Can't wait to see where this goes next! Best part of the Collab watching all the stages and changes.

Edit: removed out of respect.
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] That is looking good, Bobby! I love the way the jacket shines [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Yay.png[/img]. [/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]I am now a little confused though, as this was a collab-work-in-progress already... - finishing the CWIP, seems... not needed anymore...

I'm sorry Dee Dee, I didn't realize there was an order to be followed... yipes! My bad... I in fact used your flats to help me... apologies to all.
I removed my piece so as not to offend anyone.
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Oh! hahah nooo, you didn't have to take it down *giggles*. I was not offended.. just confused [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Blush.png[/img]. I do appreciate your kindness [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Yay.png[/img].[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]I don't know if there's an actual order to be followed, but it appears, to prevent artists working on a piece at the same time, the artist that is going to work on it, calls out to let the others know, so they can wait for the new update.
In this case... Lord Goat did the flats and I then picked it up, working on only the eyes, eyebrows and lips (also slightly changed features as they seemed a little 'off' to me).
I didn't know you were working on this aswell. [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Big%20Smile.png[/img].
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#FD5185][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]I now took the liberty to still add my work to yours - and worked on the goggles as I couldn't resist - [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Tong.png[/img], hope you like the result.
Oh, also added our signatures. I keep a folder where I save signatures of other artists, so I can credit properly in case of collabs [img]http://www.deedeeproductions.nl/images/DeeDee/Smilies/Yay.png[/img]. Don't have Lord Goat's one though... just added the name instead.

I actually didn't want to work on it till I saw the flats... thank you for fixing the goggles. Normally I would have altered a few things, but I didn't want to interfere with the original pencils. As for signatures, mine is in the clouds in the lower left. :D
Btw nice touch ups on the face...
Wow that collab went fast!! It looks great tho!
Not offended in any way LJ, just glad to be a part of the collab!
DD I don't have a standard Sig I use, So what you did for me is perfect! Thanks.

I know you had them in the old collab thread, I had grabbed them and was gonna give it a go but never got around to them. Just wondering if anyone every added color to them.
If not could be another cool collab.

[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] A polite heads up helps to avoid confusion but no worries guys, a
piece can have multiple endings and reworkings, it's all good.
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype] Yeah I still have the lines and no I don't think anyone colored him before
the forums went down. Thanks for asking LG and here ya go.

Oh, that so reminds me of my favorite villain character, my Ninja/Poison mastermind, Dr. Fu Manchu! He was so fun to play. I also had him as a online radio personality...I kind of sounded like a bad Kung Fu villain and the cartoon character MoJo Jo Jo. (^_^)
Heh, the Beat-Alls are just a rock band...
