Well, I gave it a shot. Used the cast pictures from O&M for the colors. Constructive criticism = very good.

Hehe, a lot better than what *I* churned out. I dont get how to get rid of errant pixels in the strips though, but oh well. Very nice. Only things that bug ME is that it looks like you missed a fill in the third panel, right under Millies ear, and the last speechbubble is a little dark.<br><br>*edit*<br><br><br>Nice job, overly dark objects make me sad since my eyesight isn't exactly perfect X_x

The one effect I really like is the grey coloring of Millie's speech bubble in the 4th panel; great effect!

Wow, you have natural talent at this, you should get in contact with Caigan, I'm sure he could use your help in coloring all the O&M strips.

Good work. <i>Especially</i> on the gradients. I always have trouble making those look good...

Perhaps you should send him a PM yourself to save some time... I know he usually puts new comics up frequently enough. And I believe it's just him doing the coloring, I don't see why he wouldn't accept your help, you definately have House Rules quality talent.

Only half an hour for a strip...? I'm guessing even Caigan would be impressed with that work.

Well, I have photoshop, so it's relatively easy. Just a case of setting the layers to Multiply, etc.<br><br>I have too much time on my hands / mess around in Photoshop way too much. Heh.

I'm not even using layers. Whats so great about them anyway? I'm just straight coloring. Making use of the tools like the paintcan to fill in colors. Most of my work on it so far has been in uber zoomed in mode messing around pixle by pixle.
