So I colored a thing

[splinteredstar]

Line art belongs to Hirano, coloring is mine.

I was struck with the urge to color Alucard's hat and do it all in noir lighting and shit. So I printed off a bit of a page and colored it fairly quickly, in the span of about four hours (rather than my normal time of a couple of days to a week). Though it is a fairly simple construction. Turned out fairly well, though I swore at the skin tone for about an hour and eventually just smeared black all over it.

The glasses turned out the best, I think.

Wow... eerie looking. I like the dark red with all the black.

Yeah, like I said I was going for the noir highlighting effect. Was ruined slightly by the shading already there though. Might try it again with just line art sometime
