I'm not even sure if Photoshop is all that great for coloring stuff. I have no concept of what's actually out there. Image Like I said, for me, it's familiar, so it saves me the trouble of having to learn something new to do something as unimportant as coloring in line drawings for, like, avatars and stuff.

Well, okay. In some cases, they're actually MY drawings (e.g., Akira-san), so maybe I'd benefit from learning to use software that's actually, y'know, tailored specifically for that sort of thing.

But tutorials, you ask? Doesn't Photoshop come with those? I recall learning most of what I know just by "f*cking around", but that's not very efficient time-wise. Image I have to take off soon*, but if there's still a need later, I'll take a look around for "something good". I ought to repost some of the horrifying results of that coloration method, too. (Shinji with wrench, two-faced Sachiel-Gendo, etc.)

* I'm actually going to go h00r myself to a library so I can get out of the house! zOMG!!!!111one

Actually, it turns out that is the Chinese scanlation of the Japanese original.
Well then, it seems that my command of it is even worse than I thought, if I'm mistaking Chinese for it Image

Nice art/find. I would expect that under the armor would look a tad better.

I think she looks better then some of her offical depictions (within the animation)
But then, I like drawing Evas like Reichu does. Image

Well, people, it's finished. An estimate of 8 hours of on and off work over the past few days, the coloring is finished.

Here you are.

Very nice- only complaint is that the edges of people's hair looks weird for some reason.

And why, for the love of Lilith, is Mana's hair purple?

Why's her hair purple? because I reembered her hair being purple, which appears to be false now. Should have looked at a reference like I did with Megumi, it would seem. o_@

Well, just because things have been really boring for the past couple of days, I guess I'll start unleashing some g00d33z. I got the first six Collector's Discs recently*, and these are chock-full of beautious, high-res images. You see some of them scattered over the Internets, oftentimes in crappy-tized form. But who needs those when you can have the originals, my precious?

Shin-seiki posted the first disc a while back. I don't know how many people got it, but I'll start with Disc 2, just because. I'll be dishing it in four installments of ~12.5 MB each. Here's the first one. "Use GetRight or DIE!"

http://www.evageeks.org/temp/col-disc-2_part1.zip

* I think the 7th is for teh 3\/1|_ Iron Maiden game.

His web space is limited, so it probably isn't online anymore. Once I cover Discs 2 through 6, I'll do 1. No worries.
