There are few books in my life that I can truthfully say came at the right time. Hi-Fi Color For Comics: Digital Techniques for Professional Results is that book for me.
I have been a Photoshop user for about 14 years. From the begining my purpose in using Photoshop was to color comic books. I have used it for many other thing over the years, but I keep coming back to the inevitalbe truth that all I want to do is color comic books.

This is a great book. When I wanted to learn about computer coloring back in '95, I had the pleasure of corresponding with or talking directly to two influential individuals in the industry.

I was searching for something like this for the class I teach and this fit the bill perfectly. Loved the scripts, brushes and actions on the CD!. The information on rendering is excellent.

I'm hard pressed to find anything wrong with this book. The lessons are thorough and well put together in my opinion. It's the first book that showed me what can be done in "Screen Mode" for gradients and brushes. This book also goes into steps for the fundamentals of rendering a figure or background scene(knowing the basic shapes in a scene or figure). For anyone new to coloring comics...this book will not waste your time if you give yourself time to practice.

areas of concentration are sequentially laid out.
The only problem I'm having is gettig a handle on
the "Color Holds" section of the book.
But the CD ... Read More
