  Hey all,

I've been spending some time over at DeviantArt and found a few color jams, where artists post their line work (pencils or inks) in high res format and allow other artists to color them. This helps those interested in coloring perfect their skills and give them something nice to practice with. I figured that since there's lots of artists here and several artists who submit uncolored artworks to the various contests, that we could have a thread dedicated to those line work artists submitting their works to be colored by other artists.

Line Work Artists

  1. Submitting your line work in this thread, grants any CV artist permission to color the artwork.
  2. Only the original artist/owner can submit their line work for coloring - you cannot submit anyone else's line work.
  3. Any line work submitted is available for coloring for the duration of the thread (no time limit).
  4. It is recommended that you upload a high resolution (150, 200, 300 dpi) image using an image hosting file service (DeviantArt, Flickr, or whatever).
  5. Line work artists cannot present the colored version as their own work. They must give credit to the colorist. (They can credit themselves for line work, etc.)
  6. You may not request a specific colorist to color your line work. Please contact the colorist via PM.
  7. If you are seeking a colorist for a larger project, such as a comic book, you may submit a page here for others to color, but you may not submit multiple pages of the series. You may use this thread to review colorists, but not as a recruitment thread or as a thread to color your entire project.

Colorists
  1. Any colorist may color any line work submitted in this thread.
  2. Colorists cannot present the product as their own work. They must give credit to the line work artist. (They can credit themselves for coloring, etc.)
  3. Any artist signatures, logos, names, etc. in the line work, must be readable in the final colored product. You may add your own signature.
  4. Colorists who submit a colored artwork, should @username the original artist in the thread, so they get a notice of their artwork.
  5. You can color something that's already been colored - the point is for you to get better at coloring and use these artworks to improve yourself.
  6. There's no expiration date or contest.
  7. Please notify the line work artist with a @username, to let them know about your work.

Any artist have a drawing that we can kick-start the color jam?

Line Work Submissions:


Thanks,
Jim

@turoksonofstone:  You can't submit someone else's artwork. I can see Jack Kirby's signature on the image, along with other artist's signatures.

Understood, It's the Art from an unpublished calender from 1964, just thought I'd throw it in there. But I understand now your own art only.

@ARMIV:  Uploaded colored version to my DA account. Posted comment over at DA upload with link. Below is DA embedded.

Looking forward to seeing what others can do with the first submission. I added it to the opening thread. I'll try to add each there as a quick reference for anyone who's just finding the thread.

@Caligula:  Awesome. Thanks for the submission.

 @tonis: Yes. That was Armiv's art work. He goes by Amrock on DA. I always include "by username" as the end of the art work title on DA, just so it's obvious that it's not from me :)
 
Hopefully, we'll see a few more colorings this week from other colorists.

@Caligula: 

I'm still hoping for a few more colorists to jump into the thread, but for the time being I'll submit some of my colorings :)

Hope you like it.

@jamesewelch: killer job on Cal's Cyclops, I was loving the original but that is a REALLY nice upgrade.
Once I get some things squared away I might have a little time to do a color or two, will definitely throw my hat in then ;)

@karbacca:  Nice line work. I think I'm going to try one of those. Give me a chance to work on skin tones and hair details.

@sora_thekey: Another nice one.

Thanks for the submissions.

@karbacca:  Uploaded Nick Fury colored work.

I'm still not happy with it, but it's practice and hopefully I'll get better with hair and skin tone with some more work. I wanted to try and make Fury a bit younger, edgier looking with some highlights in his hair. Maybe what Nick Fury would look like on a teen drama type TV show :)
