Whew...
This was perhaps the most difficult (image-wise) page of the story to get through...
With the unsettling imagery and multiple effects, this page was really a true test of my newfound coloring skills.
It was hard to keep the color simple but interesting while trying not to over-accentuate the brutality of the action on display...
I'm happy with the results... but I'm still sure that I will be tweaking the image further as I push forward and better master the tools at my disposal.
The next page contains the last two video panels in the story... but I've got a good handle on them now so I'm not as concerned as I was when I began this sequence. Also, the following story sequence contains one of the most violent panels in the entire tale... but because those involved are less than savory characters, it doesn't bother me nearly as much these past panels where an innocent girl is terribly violated and I can really get into the intensity of the image.
Heading into the final stretch soon... but still have a looong way to go before I can begin to relax...
