This shot by njsabs2323 was so enchanting. It certainly deserved the blue ribbon. Colorizing B&W is a hobby of mine, so I thought I would play with it. I used some of the colors that were described, and just made up the rest.

I, like others, would love to see the actual color version. I can't imagine it would improve on the B&W version njsabs2323 submitted to the Mask Challenge.

For what its worth, I used 5 colors, Green for the silk and feathers and her eyes, Blue for the feathers, pink for her lips, sort of a redish for her hair, and a flesh tone for her skin and the mask. I simply painted over the areas in the color blending mode.

If it is possible that you could have missed the original, you will find it here:


I hope you enjoy, and to njsabs2323, I hope you forgive.

Ok, this is completely freaky.
I've been playing with hand-coloring lately and saw a shot similar to this somewhere on the web and was playing with
njsabs2323's picture as well, then saw you your version on the recently commented on page.

Twilight zone material here...

This work is wonderful, by both artists. I loved the black and white version, and the colorized verson is stunning.

Hi,

I love the compliment, but the original image is not mine... I could only hope to be able to create such an image. I am very glad you like the work.

This is just mind boggling! How long did it take you to hand color this?? It's really amazing!
