Hey Pedro- I deleted your comment by accident while tinkering with the post. You asked about the coloring process on these.

Both of these were spontaneous ink sketches, no pencils or premeditation.

A simple photoshop trick for coloring monotone art:

-Scan the image into pshop.
-Select all and duplicate on a new layer.
-Use Hue/Saturation to colorize the new layer.
-Erase the parts of the new layer to reveal previous layer.
-Repeat from source layer to color other sections of the image.
-Season to taste.

Nice effects.

Nice. I like the effect. Gotta say though, I don't think my pshop came with any seasoning... damn! In all honesty though, I have my ups and downs with pshop. I used to be a big time ink and watercolor fella, but the scanning became too much so I moved into illustrator.

Nice stuff buddy, thanks for giving me the low down.
