If there are any One Piece Manga scenes you would like some color added to, please let me know. If you either send me a link, picture, or the chapter and page number I can get a screenshot of it. My work isn't very good yet. But it is improving. Any request would be great.
Any request or suggestions?

Ooh, Ooh! I got one!
Chapter 232, Cover Page.
[hide][/hide]
Only time I've seen Nami with a cig.
-
Thanks. I really like the way Nami was drawn there. She wasn't too skinny over big breasted.
The Jolly Roger on the suit case resembles Luffy's but has her tongue sticking out. hahaI will see what colors look best on her though. Since these clothes were never used, I can't base my colors off much. What is up with the Route 666 sign though? 666 = Evil/Satan
-
I am really glad you made a suggestion. Where did this pic come from? It is much higher quality than most images I have gotten to work with. Really makes me happy I have a image that isn't blurry.
What was Oda stating with the 666? Any theories are great.

I got the image from Cloud Manga. It has a very, very large manga selection and it's loading time between manga pages is exceptionally fast.

You just answered your own question there. Because the number 666 is commonly associated with the Devil or other demonic evil, and because the sign points down to "Route 666", Oda could be referencing the famous ACDC song "Highway to Hell"

Also, there actually was a U.S. Highway that was labeled Route 666 that ran through Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah. Because of it's name, the road was nicknamed "The Devil's Highway". Also because of the highway's number and nickname, accidents and other phenomena became repeated as legend. It was these legends and reported deaths that convinced some people that the highway was cursed. The Highway was named and known as Route 666 from it's first construction/opening in 1926 until 2003, where it was renamed U.S. Route 491.

Thanks for the answer. I am working on the OP logo and Nami's hair.
What colors were you thinking of for the clothing? Everytime I see those pants I think of the Leather or Crocodile pants worn long time ago. I am guessing a brown for the pants.Some of the oddities in that picture are funny. Nami's band-aid, Chopper Fox, Cigarette, and Hitchhiking in a time when no cars existed. Haha

I am guessing a brown for the pants.For Nami, whenever I see that Image, I picture a white shirt and darkish brown pants. The fox is red/orange. Suitcase is Steel Grey.
EDIT: You could make the fox light brown though, I'd be okay with that too.
-
What a coincidence. I was thinking of pretty much those same colors. Only difference was the suit case. Haha.
UPDATE: I will be heading to bed. Quite late where I am. Here is a progress report:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/modnation/5186081243/
The letters, and clouds are going to be touched up when I am done with the image.
This is in it's rough stages. I will fix the color accuracy on the letters later.Thanks for the great image to work with.

Thanks! It looks great so far!
and I don't mean to be critical, but you accidentally colored in the large cloud in the top left corner.
But keep up the good work!
-
I noticed the cloud before I uploaded. If you noticed I stated that the cloud has a mistake and the lettering needs shading added. The cloud was caused by an error in the threshold count while using the selection tool. Many things will be improved in the final version.
I will upload the progress pic late tonight.
-
UPDATE: I have been working on the picture and hopefully I should be able to get it done by the end of Saturday.
Today was nothing really exciting. Most of the time was spent fixing pixels around the clouds and border.
I have had to draw or touch up certain areas. Clouds and Nami's eyes weren't completely outlined.
I am not sure why Oda doesn't fully draw certain areas. I have redrawn many areas.
Nonetheless, I have gotten better at drawing and the eyes and clouds look just like the original.
Here is the progress pic.http://www.flickr.com/photos/modnation/5188352367/
Anyone that has tips on the correct color, or even a color code for skin color, please let me know.
Really appreciated. -
Thanks for the update!
It's really beautiful! The best coloring I've seen of that picture so far.
and Nami's skin color is fine as it is, I don't think you need to change it.
-
Glad you like it. I can't wait till Saturday. I should have enough time to improve the One Piece Logo, Nami's hair might get some highlights due to this scene looking like a sunny day, and all of the touchups needed. The final image will look much better than this. This image still looks a little off due to the picture only being halfway complete. I will be able to get a lot done tonight.
-
Just wanted to let you know.
I might be staying up later tonight to work on this image. If I do stay up later I will be uploading the image around 11:00 - 12:00 in my time zone. -
OK, Thanks!
-
Here is an update. It can be the final pic, unless you want any of the colors changed around. If you want the clouds darker, Nami's shirt a certain color, or any other changes, just let me know. I also did the StrawHat Jolly Roger. Tongue is pink, straw color hat, and of course the red band Luffy's hat has.
I usually work with images zoomed in around 400-800%, sometimes I will do the larger areas in 200% zoom. But if you look closely you can tell that Nami's cigarette is now red with a faint black color to it. So it looks like the cigarette is currently lit.http://www.flickr.com/photos/modnation/5191743802/
And just to let everyone know. My next image should turn out better than this one.
I was learning many new things as I went along this time. So next time I can make metal objects look more real, and overall quality of the image better. If anyone has any images they would like done, please let me know.If you want anything changed around on that Nami pic, I will be more than happy to change some things. I might mess around with Nami's shirt color. Have a backup and a version of this pic just for messing around with.
It is now 3:10 AM where I am.
-
It's so beautiful~~ :wub: :wub:
Thank You, It's perfect!
My only comment on the picture that you can change is that the metal suitcase next to Nami looks a little blurry, so If you could change that, it would be nice.
Yeah, that's about it. :happy:
-
Here is the previous coloring:

To try and alleviate the blurriness on the suitcase I colored it darker over some
of the image's previous color.http://www.flickr.com/photos/modnation/5192186269/
If you or anyone else wants another picture done, just let me know. I learned a lot while working with this image. Now that I know a little more, my next image will be better.
Just link or send an image and I will start on it. -
Here are the images organized into a set.

Ah, it's quite nice to line them all up in order and see the amount of progression you made in such a short amount of timeβ¦.

Just link or send an image and I will start on it.I think I'm done for now, 'cause that was my favorite One Piece cover page, but I'll let you know if I want another request some time in the future. For now, I'll let other people have a chance to put in requests for whatever they want colored.
Well, as a token of thanks, allow me share with you my first (and only) One Piece coloring I did. Here is my color scheme for the Caribou brothers in the anime (I used MS Paint.) I'm not planning on doing another coloring soon, because this one took forever. It was very tedious (about 3 days work).
[hide][/hide]
Thanks again. :happy:
-
Wow, for MS Paint you did a very good job.
I think this image took me 10 - 15 hours.Really fun image to do though. Since it was never featured in the anime or anything, it was really fun to see this in color.
-
I am still taking any requests. Please let me know if there is anything you want done.
-
I sure would like a version of Mihawk "strongest slash" against Whitebeard. I prefer the purple for his slash. It looked more evil and intimidating.
Thank you and take your time
-
Could you link me the panel with that image?
The higher quality, the better.
Sorry I couldn't respond sooner.But please link me an image.
-
I want the two-page spread of chapter 112 with luffy an zolo takin' ouut the BW folks.
for FREE!!!!!!!!!!!
-
That was an awesome image.
That would actually be a good image to do, because I can use the anime for a reference. My only issue is Luffy's shirt being pure black, but I should be able to go over it with white, and then color it.What do you mean for free? None of my work is worth .99 cents.
Can't wait till I do get better though.

Thanks for the reply ! There's the i^mage
!
-
Thanks for the reply and the image.
I will begin working on it tonight.http://www.flickr.com/photos/modnation/5397016222/
That is a REALLY, REALLY rough draft image from Chapter 112. While waiting on Sanji to reply, I did a rough draft of the image you wanted, BattleAxe
-
Sanji, that will be a really fun image to work on.
I will get to try some new stuff with that image.
Even in the anime, where they do very minimal shading, ice is something they do good. So I will be learning/practicing shading so I can blend multiple colors (Dark Blue, Light Blue, PURE White)
together for a nice effect. Excited to try to get to come out half decent. HAHAHAHAHA -
I apologize about the lack of updates.
I did the image multiple times, and never got a result i was happy with. I tried smudging the ice, came out horrible.
Did a fuzzy select on the slash, and then used multiply, came out different shades. Did the sky in a light blue, looked like the ocean. So many mistakes, kept restarting. To do the sky in gradient, I did the whole image in gradient, and then erased everything except the sky.But the image is not complete, but it is now on the right track. I have learned how to upscale images via Gimp, so it is now sharper when zoomed in. I have learned to use gradients, so the sky looks much better. I haven't done the other half of the image, but I will be working on it.
Here is the work in progress.

The resolution is 4000 X 3429
-
Let me know what you think.
If anybody has suggestions on the ice, or any other part of the image.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/modnation/5448410088/ -
Well, here is how it started out:
And here is what should be the finished product.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/modnation/5449284425/If there are any suggestions, feel free to make them.
I made the Moby dick brighter, because it just seems to dark in the original image. I also made the dust clouds gray now. -
Hey BattleAxe, the double spread of Luffy taking out the Baroque Works agents, did you see it in the anime? They did it just as good as the manga in the anime. And because the scene was so dark, I couldn't do much shading, so I can't really do anything better than Toei.
I can get the image from the anime, and upscale it into better quality if you'd like.
