I really like it. The only thing I don't like is that Caska is too dark. Other than that it is a great first picture. I like the background colors too. :serpico:

Hey, not too shabby.

I would suggest changing the background a tad (perhaps something less saturated). The gradient is overpowering your characters which can make things look flat, not to mention make the colors that are supposed to be dark (such as caskas skin) to be almost black to the eye. The good thing with recolors is that you don't have to worry about composition too much since Miura did such a good job of already making the individual panels stand out. Notice how he has no detail in the backgrounds (because the characters are all thats important).
After that you can have fun with the lighting and shading of the characters as a there really isnt much of directional light in the original ink shading.

Well, better stop before I start rambling. Cheers

I think that the colors are a little too bright and vivid. Also, I agree that the gradient is wrong for the picture. Unless that really happened. But i doubt it. Good job though!

Hey! much better this time around.
I don't know why, exactly, but I really like the green color you chose for the fire in front of Corkus, even if it is technically not the color of fire. It helps that panel stand out.
The cloudy effect works well when you've put it against the fire or in the background. However when its on the faces (in some of the shadows of Judo or Corkus), it looks weird. Same with the orange splotches you've put on some of the armor.
Also like the sky, too.

Keep it up

Good stuff. But what did those guys do to deserve death, other than not have blue hair? I want answers.
