Just a few panels from the Berserk manga I colored years ago with copics. I still like them enough to post somewhere besides my mostly defunct Berserk tumblr.
This last one looks strange because I used a posterization effect, otherwise the coloring is "real".
It vexes me to no end that they've made it difficult to make decent looking image posts here, as in, to align them side-by-side it's nearly impossible. Visually I will loathe how this blog will look, but I must keep struggling.
I have a lot more, I am not sure where they are unfortunately! It's so disappointing to lose digital files over multiple computers. I have the original colorings somewhere, but again, I don't know where some went.
This next one is massive irl (for me, at least- it's probably the largest thing I ever colored). I printed the manga panel onto art paper, I -think- it's 12"x18". I photographed it at multiple times during the coloring process.
This was a really fun project tho, and ultimately I like the process coloring more than the end result. The whole thing took many many hours and I colored the hair pretty impulsively (if that's not obvious lmao). I added black outlines with a brush pen & white stray hairs with a gel pen at the end. Glitter on the lips ofc. This was scary to work on tbh!! It was so beautiful and magnificent and huge irl that I was scared to completely butcher it. I still have it, but I don't know what to do with it.
This goes without saying but all the manga panels on this page were drawn by Kentaro Miura, may he rest in peace. Sorely missed.
🫵 you did such an amazing job on these, especially without colored versions to go off of!!!
