Usagi & Horse...In color!

Post by Blambot »

Found time to color the b/w art I posted yesterday. Here it is!

(Tom Luth's work on GROO/USAGI has always been my main inspiration for coloring. I like working in flats with just basic highlights...)

It is not easy to improve on excellence, but you have managed to do it.

Looks fantastic!

I love the style, Usagi and the horse seem like they've been unwillingly paired up for adventure LOL

Frankly I just love the entire thing. The expressions say it all, on both Usagi and the horse.
