When I recolor these from the original line-art, the differences between my coloring style then and now is so great, so incompatible, that I say “to hell with it” and just color the comic like I would now. The one concession to the original coloring I have is eyedropping the colors from the original strip to do the flats, but otherwise I just come at the coloring as I would in Dumbing of Age. Y’know, your flats, your color shadows and highlights, your color ambiance if the scene calls for it (this strip did) …
I kinda like this one. Way less of a mess than the original. I was big on airbrushing then. Yuck.
