Total Colosseum collabby ~minty-fivestar

Fan Art / Traditional Art / Drawings / Other

A collab pic of sorts with:

After Christine posted her inked lineart of Total Colosseum (found here: [link]), the first thing I thought was that it looked clean enough to be in a coloring book. ^^ And that sparked the idea for me to try my hand at coloring it myself! So I asked Christine if I might be allowed to try coloring her lineart for her... in colored pencil! She agreed, and here is the end result. ^_^

I really like how this turned out. It wasn't particularly hard to color, just very time-consuming, as I had to figure out the colors for all the characters at first! ^^ I basically downloaded the picture, then printed it off on one sheet of paper, as big as it would allow me to. Then, I got my colored pencils and all my reference material... and went to work! ^^ Took about a week or two to complete, coloring a couple characters a day, but I finally finished and scanned it in for all to see.

Reference materials used to color:
~ Pokémon Colosseum game guide from Nintendo
~ Issues #178-180 of Nintendo Power
~ Pokémon: Pokédex Collector’s Edition from Prima Games
~ Pokémon FireRed instruction manual
~ Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire game guide from Nintendo
~ Pokémon Colosseum for Nintendo Gamecube
~ Christine's picture "Christine's Crew" ([link]) for slight reference on her character in the right panel (the one giggling near the top with a Pichu, ^^)
~ Christine's picture "MINE not yours" ([link]) for reference on Emok (couldn't get it very well from the game)

Lots of reference! Want everything to be as accurate as possible!

Hope you like it, Christine! ^^ Thanks for letting me color it! Though I'm sure whenever you decide to color it yourself it will be even better! ^_^

If you critique, please critique on the coloring only, as the sketch and inking are not my work. The only problem I see in the picture is the pink on Meganium's flower... it's bright as can be in the original, but my scanner apparently couldn't pick up any of the color. So... ya.

Haha, me too. x) I just did the coloring; ~sweethart772002/~SweetieCz did the lineart.

The characters look very similar to art style of the original manga.

I had no idea that by clicking on the DA link on your fanfiction page that i would find out that your the person that partly made Lol my favourite pkm colosseum picture. I am mostly surprised but also hyper Lol

~minty-fivestar Jan 7, 2012

Hehe, thanks! I didn't really make the picture--the lineart was drawn by ~SweetieCz--but I did color it. I guess that's something. ^^

~Amber1142 Jan 7, 2012 Student Writer
