Deadpool sample page

Aight people, here's a sample page I colored a little while back. I've seen some other posts about the book, so I assume it's safe to post now. Pencils by Mark Brooks, colors by me:

beautiful coloring, the one thing that irks me is the grid like pattern. theres no flow to it. almost like its a calendar.
:D

beautiful coloring. the drawings are dynamic, but like battlemonkey said...the windows are too symmetrical.

The one thing that I'm wondering about is the background 'action' blurs... for the most part they seem to be going against the line of action... which is exactly what they're not (if your a fan of anime, power rangers, etc.... that type of usage for this effect) supposed to do. They are, in my mind, supposed to be like motion blur / motion lines, caused by the action depicted...

The way you've used them seems to deaden the frame... and I agree with the others, the layout is a bit to "hollywood squares"... doesn't help to push the action either...

BUT... the colouring / lighting is beautiful.... really, minor points by me about the blurs... try changing them to see if you think it makes the images more dynamic...

There is a book called "Drawing Cutting Edge Comics" by Chris Hart, that book is great because it shows how the comic book pros are busting out of the standard frames/cells and making there own style.

But I love deadpool, he's one of the more dyamic comic book characters out there. Great job with the drawings.
