These witch hunts are shameless.
Wow, it is really awesome ... besides everything i've written for the b/w version the colors give the whole image much more impact. What is really outstanding is the fire, especially how it affects the coloring of the skin and cloth (the more reddish/orange highlingts on the edges of her skin and cloth).
And her hair is beautiful as ever, and you've added the freckels and stake ... what is also very interesting how it works in connection to the more happy and peaceful first one. Even though she looks a little different it is still very clearly the same character, but the scene and also the complete color give it the direct opposit effect. Instead a blue sky and green grass there is now only fire and grey smoke. Instead the blue dress she wears now a torn brown sackcloth ... the skin is much more dark and somehow dirty (not so soft like on the other) ... only her hair and eyes remain the same, but her eyes and half open mouth really express her fear and desperation perfect that they look totally different ... The only thing i could imagine to make it even more sad, would be the addition of some tears ... but even as it is now, it is already very sad (especially when looking first at the happy one and now this)
Thank you so much for this wonderful artwork
Do you know some good tutorials for coloring [Or have maybe written one on your own?]? (I wanted to try a bit coloring with my latest own sketch, but fail miserably, especially making these shading/highlights like you did on the hair is very hard for me [or i use the wrong tools/options/settings which is more likely
Two tutorials that I took ideas from and changed a bit are [link] and [link] . Though maybe at some point I can put something up about how I do it since I figured out a different way to do it.
