Digital Inks & Colors

For this piece, I used Photoshop to digitally ink and color the character. I began by vectoring out the original lines and shapes, giving them a more solid, flat look. This technique allows the figure to stand out with a sharper silhouette and defined flow. The black-and-white version was completed after the colored version, by simply converting the palette to create a monotone effect—emulating how it might appear on inked comic pages.

I explored two color variations here:

• Phoenix Variation (Version 1) – with classic reds and greens
• Dark Phoenix Variation (Version 2) – a richer, moodier version inspired by alternate arcs
