Zombie Farm colo

Description

My submission for : #PremiumMembers' current contest.
I chose *JadeDragonne's lineart because out of those I could pick one hers seemed most fun to colour.

I spent about 10 friggin hours on it, especially on the sky. x.x
It was worth it, though, I am rather pleased with the result and very happy about my scanner actually having made the digital version look almost exactly like the original. :)
I used some crazy colour-combinations in this picture, most notable of which is the shirt: basic colour is light green, shadows indigo, blended with bright grey.
The ground must have more than seven colours. Green tones, brown, purple, blue, several grey tones...otherwise it would have looked boring.

My favourite parts are the hair (I simply love colouring hair :) ) and the house in the background with its eerie green light. :)

The moon was a bit tough because it had these outlines while at the same time being the light source...but I think the light shading (pun, lol.) looks quite okay.

Given the short amount of time the contestants were given it looks quite nice, I spent most time drawing during university lessons. XD

There were many other things I wanted to say about it, but I forgot them. XD
So...I hope you like it, too.
Advice is appreciated! :)


P.S.: Sorry for mistakes in this text. I'm pretty tired. =.=

Wow, was für eine geniale Idee. Und die Umsetzung ist erstklassig. So schön finster und dennoch buntl. Und die Idee, die Zombies mit Blut zu gießen ist ja mal voll episch. Ich seh es zwar grad nur in Kleib auf dem Handy, aber ich werde es definitiv nochmal in groß auf dem PC ansehen, wenn ich zu Hause bin.
Ich sehe, die lange Arbeit hat sich gelohnt. Wirklich ein toller Gesamteindruck!
