Oh, that's awesome. How'd you get it to look all vintage-like?

November 20 2005, 01:23:24 UTC 6 years ago

It's basically just solid blocks of colour, then I applied the 'noise' filter and blurred it a little. The *really* tricky part was finding the right balance of colours and *keeping* te shading to just the linework.

Thanks dood! *glomps*

Having read the story in question... no, completely not your fault. *ahahahaha*

And I think I'm in love with/fear the things you kifed from the old-school style, because they manage to make this both more perfect and hot (natch) *and* more terrifying.

Am I really sure this *didn't* show up in one ancient panel or another? No, no I am not. EVIL BAD AUDREY.

I think it's time we accepted that Petra is our Evil Overlord.

There was only so far I was willing to take the copying of that style, because OLD SKOOL DICK IS A SCARY, SCARY MIDGET. And the scarybadwrong perspective was bad enough.

I am *deeply* flattered. I mean disturbed. I mean flattered.

It's *beautiful.*

The Golden-Age-ness of it all is absolutely stellar.

The coloring!

The bodice-ripper smooch!

Bruce's *neckcloth*. I LOVE YOU.

The *colors* of Dick's *dress.* You are *wonderful*.

*POINTS AT YOU*

This is what happens when people encourage me! And when I get the idea to smoosh French romantic and Godlen Age comic art styles together into one terrifying whole.

I never *did* get to show you that picture of Marie Antoinette, did I?

Absolutely not my fault, man.

This is absolutely lovely! I love the bodice ripper pose! It's so popculture. And if that's not a balance beam behind them, am I correct in identifying it as a horse? XD ! Ten times better if it is!!!

Well, it *looks* rather a great deal like a gymnastics horse. It is not nearly narrow enough nor, well, beam-y enough, to be a balance beam--horses have the nice rounded edges, balance beams have fairly angular edges. *grins*

Am I imagining it because the hot has fried my brain, or have you actually incorporated elements from the golden age art style?

You win!

[info]_audrey

November 20 2005, 01:36:18 UTC 6 years ago

Yep. (Or at least, I tried to as much as I could. The wonky perspective was hurting my brane!)

*bee heeee*

November 19 2005, 16:19:37 UTC 6 years ago

I don't know what's hotter.

The kiss.

The costumes.

The COLORING of the costumes.

The color scheme of the piece (!!!!eleventyone!!! GOLDEN AGE OMG)

The kiss.

What so obviously comes next.

Just.... Oh, Audrey, you have melted my brain.

[info]_audrey

November 20 2005, 02:38:05 UTC 6 years ago

*pats*

I'm just... I had to wade through so much Golden Age crack for this that I think I gave myself mild brain damage.

*bee heee*

Wow. Hot! Old skool! And man, Petra is evil (in a good way) isn't she?

[info]_audrey

November 20 2005, 02:48:30 UTC 6 years ago

Oh yes. Yes *indeedy*.

Thankyou! :D

[info]_audrey

November 20 2005, 02:54:23 UTC 6 years ago

*snerk* I have no idea why, but it did turn out rather shiny.

Thanks! :D

YIS! *win*

And thankyou *so much* for all the Golden Age scans you've been posting - they really helped rather a lot.

I... have a great and terrible fondness for that era of French clothing. Especially the breeches. :D

November 20 2005, 03:09:31 UTC 6 years ago

I'm back again (again! still! so pretty!) and I would love to make this into an icon, if you don't mind.

[info]_audrey

November 20 2005, 03:42:09 UTC 6 years ago
