HoboSong vs. GbyP: Colorize That H2H-2 - Winner is... - GbyP - 05-07-2010 05:39 AM
Hobosong! - Congratulations for winning your 1st H2H!! Good luck in your next challenge.
Although there is still an hour or so left, since I never even came close to tying, I concede now.
**************************************************************************************************************************************
Welcome to the Misfit Squirrel Colorization H2H Series B-league - Colorize That!
This contest features Fark's latest uber colorization artist & a confused old man who fiercely guards his technicolor lawn:
HoboSong and GbyP
Colorization requires much dedication and focused contemplation... but we are going to zoom through it anyway (or so we think).
Submission deadline is Friday May 14 7am Eastern.
Voting will be open shortly thereafter and last ~3 days.
The winner will be decreed Sunday May 16th ~9pm Eastern.
Care of the wonderful world of Shorpy, HoboSong found this Sleeping Beauty:

Hello. You may notice that we are lacking a picture. We need a picture.
So if you have a groovy B&W you would like us to colorize, post it in this thread and I'll move it up there and credit you O Generous One (whoever you may be).
Thank you!

Hello.
My name is HoboSong.
I offer you this as penance.

Brilliant - I accidentally deleted the wrong post...
Believe it or not libranoelrose, we already colorized this image on Mr Squirrel's site... Here.
It's a great pic, but I've seen it and colorized it. Sorry. But I really did appreciate your effort.
I was really hoping that someone would have offered us a pic by now... kinda sad here. Pic found. Search over.

Very nice HoboSong!
We had agreed to post Sunday, but HoboSong was able to finish much sooner. Unfortunately, because this is his 1st H2H and more unfortunately I forgot that this was his 1st H2H, we didn't discuss what to do if one person finishes sooner than expected and so he posted. And I haven't even started. My bad.
The norm in H2Hs is to have at least 3-4 days to work on then post a submission. I might be able to work on my submission late Tues or Weds; I'll try to post by Weds PM but I'll have a better fix by Tues PM.
Stay tuned.

Well I'm even more of a slacker because I won't be able to post until Friday at the earliest. I have 2 job interviews Thursday and I want to focus on prep for those today.
I figure as long as I sign up for contests, this will ensure real-life conflicts - good conflicts - like job interviews. Priorities.

Good luck on them. I've found that pleading the 5th doesnt work well in job interviews, YMMV

Voted...and think yours looks great. I really like the foreground stuff, I struggled with that part.

EDIT: Grumbly grumble... can't have no fun... :panda:
Yeah that foreground was interesting; I flipped and rotated the pic about 8 different ways. I headed in the direction you took, but then a diary and pencil magically appeared. Now I'm thinking it was a mirage... stupid mirages. My wallpaper is more greenish-yellow than I remember too... the print is too distinct + got washed out on the side with the window.
Good grief. I'm getting dumberer with age. I should just grab some cardboard and go beg on the corner.

Ok well I made this at work today and had an AWESOME comment all tricked out and clever to go with it that I can't remember. I guess this is all I got now. Which will show that I'm not actually as bored currently as I was at work, which later turned into a million mph day. hmmph.

I made a MSpaint ballot tracker because I was spending a long time thinking stuff then forgetting it. Excellent job to both ye fellers though... and GbyP I agree with some of your overly harsh self assessment, but personally liked the definition provided with the books, diary, and pen. I guess you're debating if it's "allowed' to shop an image swap in a colorize contest? Why not? The only area I wasn't a fan on either one, not that I could even think of approaching what you 2 did, was the window cloth whatever you call them thingys. Curtain, yeah that's the ticket, the window curtain, but I did like your transparency there GbyP.
