#colorize

———————————————————————————————

Since I can't post here on Tumblr the full formatted fics, I decided to share as a stand-alone the full-size version of edited pics I include in the fics galleries.

Tec stuffs (aka Behind The Art) I merely changed colors (which isn't as quick and easy as it might sounds – it took me hours to properly have everything fixed). My intention was to turn the hair from Brian's blond to black, but how the hair in this specific art are drawn, is impossible (there are no highlights, so it would be just a block of black). To make it work I would need to hand-repaint them (which I wouldn't know where to start from, especially to fit the rest of the coloring). So I instead decided to color them purple and retroactively return to the fic to make the story work with the image. Crazy, isn't it?

Originally I wanted to use the art of James Braddock with the original Captain Britain costume as seen in Excalibur (2001) #3, and merely switch head with the one of the pic from the trade paperback (I needed the masked face). Changed my mind, but kept the color scheme.

Credits The original image is the art cover for Captain Britain: Legacy of a Legend trade paperback from 2016. Artists: Alan Davis (pencils), Mark Farmer (additional pencils and/or inks) and Robert Schwager (colors).
