Color Contest

Here's another Shayla.  Executor82, pardon me for breaking your rules, but this one picture was a lot of work.

No problem. This one looks great!  

[larewen_evenstar]

I'm gonna try alielle or Fatora. If I get the time.

I'm also going to have to go with number 2! ^_^

OK, I was just kinda fooling around, but here's mine. And, here's the original: http://www.el-hazardonline.net/cgi-bin/register/eholmemberfile.cgi?getfile=images_4/358.JPG;type=jpeg

4. (w00t! What happened to the lighting?)

I thought this WAS the original until I looked at link.  

I do believe that #1 was very cool.  I did look like a really bad-ass Iffy from Wanderers, like she might have looked when she finally got down to business with the Eye of God.  No more Ms. Nice Iffy.  

Thanks, Gary.

I'll start slowly by only changing Shaylas hair!

So which color would suite her best?

8.

I liked #2 quite a bit.  It looked quite natural on her.  I liked #8 also despite Rob's comment about it appearing too close to the original.  That's part of why I like it.  It's not quite the same but close, something that might have resulted from different "lighting."  Almost makes the frame seem more closer to real life with the #8 coloring.

executor82:  Shayla #8 (dark red) and the ever-popular #2 (black).

Saucer:  Ifurita #2 (red).

Here's another Shayla.  Executor82, pardon me for breaking your rules, but this one picture was a lot of work.

Great Priestess Urd:

ROTFLMAO!  Damn straight, Adock!  Loved it!  

Good job, man.  Although it did get me thinking "damn it's been awhile since he's updated Mara's Worst Nightmare or HnA"...

I didn't see the bit about Urd. No offence, but I don't think white hair suits Shayla. But it does remind me slightly of Urd.

Thanks Mark. Yes, it does sort of combine "the best of the two." ^^: Although I do love Iffy's original hair color the best. It's rare to find a chara with hair that particular shade of blue, and curly at that!

With the dark hair though, she reminds me of the "mysterious third Ifurita" we see in the fold out poster that included with the El Hazard Anthology Comic.

[larewen_evenstar]

I've done both Alielle and Fatora. But I've done one of Diva, but I'm not gonna post the one of Diva, because I want someone else to have the chance to colour Her.

[executor82]

And the winner is....

black-haired Shayla and Ifurita!!

And a special award for Shayla-Urd! created by MrWhat!!  

New artwork in progress and coming soon

4.

Okay, which one? And, can I post my Fatora one, or does someone else wanna do Fatora?

I don't know where the original went, sorry.

[Captain Southbird (EHOL Creator)]

Actually, those all look pretty neat; I'll just go with brown hair because it's weirdly regular. ;p

[executor82]

I like the red one and the green one. But in the end I think that I would choose #3.

[larewen_evenstar]

Personally, I'd choose 1 or 2.

[MrWhat]

Lar:  Alielle #1 (brown).  Agree with Rob, for the same reason  

[Spanner]

I gotta go with brown-haired Alielle. It just seems to go well with her eyes.

Of course, her eyes in this picture are a slightly different shade from Alielle's usual. Normally, they're much more purple. ^_^ I'd probably have to say that the red hair goes better with Alielle's normal eye color.
