Terrapin Bound vs Ban Sidhe: Colorize This! H2H-1 WINNER IS - GbyP - 05-05-2010 07:00 PM

Ban Sidhe - congratulations!!!

********************************************************************************​*****************************************************************

Welcome to the Misfit Squirrel Inaugural Colorization H2H Series - Colorize This!

This contest features two of Fark's best colorization artists: Terrapin Bound and Ban Sidhe

Colorization requires much dedication and focused contemplation... the zen masters have requested a May 23rd submission deadline*... the contestants can decide a time.
Voting will be open shortly thereafter and last 3 days.
The winner will be decreed May 26th.

Oh, and here's a picture too:

And here's a link to a bigger version (do the right-clickie thing)

I thought about using a pic from my own collection but they are all shades of green, blue, and gray. Beautiful places, but not exciting colorization fodder. This is free stock fyi.

Good Luck Misfits!


* Submission date changed from 5/16 to 5/23 per contestants request.
If you wish to participate in this H2H series, indicate in this thread. Thanks!

Looking forward to this, BS. I just warmed up with a Shorpy over at Fark, and the juices are flowin' again...

Cool! I haven't been able to colorize anything for a while now, so I'm looking forward to this one.

I LOVE the distortion of the pool for this project! Great pic!

But no people!

If the image is too challenging, you and TB decide on a pic and replace the image I provided. All I ask is to email me so I can swap out the image.
Thanks.

Nah...I'm good. It's just time-consuming. And keeping that pool leaf-free during the Fall must be a nightmare.

Now you tell me.

OK...I've tried three times to insert a link to a larger version of the pic using the usual HTML code to open in a new window, but it's not working. So here's a regular old non-popping link: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v31/jenniferjo/villapool_lrg_jjw.jpg">http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v31/j ... rg_jjw.jpg</a><!-- m -->. Sorry...

oh, wow... This is beautiful ban_sidhe, Great job! I am really floored by you folk that colorize so well (and often SO fast!). I just noticed - It's funny how they made the columns different between sides, isn't it? Really strange... It just occurred to me that one day when I need to decorate a room, I can just take a B&W pic of it and have a colorize this type contest to see the best color usages! I suppose in such a case there would have to be a cash prize though. Just my $0.06 - no! that's my thoughts worth not a prize! I'm not THAT cheap! Icon_albino

Ban, that is absolutely stunning! It really looks great!

I can't colorize in B & W to save my life, so I'm getting a kick out of....

That's incredible, ban_sidhe. Really looks great, one of the best Ive ever seen.

Edit: Found time to finish.

Voted for yours, BS. Would vote for it again if I could, awesome job.

Terrapin Bound: I just sent a vote your way. Lovely work!
It amuses me that we ended up using so many of the same colors. We could swap some layers between yours and mine and no one would be the wiser!

I tried pastels, but it was a dead end...the subject matter simply screamed out for earth tones!
