2009-10-03 4:20pm Are you hand drawing those lines? Jeez that must take FOREVER!!!
Even with the Photoshop pen tool this would still take a very long time. You must have the patience of Job.
I can't wait to see how you end up coloring this. Any chance you'd consider recording your actions as you color it? There's some free software that records everything you're doing on your PC to a video file. I used it recently to make a giantess collaging tutorial. I'd love to watch you work.

2009-10-04 12:16am Thanks! I'm not really sure how I'm going to color this yet - which is a good reason to maybe not screen cap it. With how slow I am, I'd probable end up building a 2 gig video file. :)

2009-10-04 1:02pm Well, you could always just edit out the slow parts, and even speed up the mundane parts. That's what I did with my video. The 35 minute video ended up being about 260 MB in .wmv format in 640 X 480 resolution. Then I converted it to . .flv Flash file using "Super" and it was about 110 MB with very little quality loss.
No biggie if you can't do it. I know from experience it takes a lot of time. I'm just always up for learning from people who are better than I am.
On the off chance you're interested in seeing how my video turned out, you can download it here:

I'm thinking about doing something similar as a coloring tutorial. Apparently several people like what I do enough to want to learn how it's done.
