Sketch done in Manga Studio 5, coloring happened in Photoshop CS6. Background and general idea lovingly borrowed from “Casino Royale”.
Please keep in mind that yes, I have read comics for the past 30 years or so, and yes, I did a lot of ink drawing (about 15 years back) but I have never done actual coloring work so far, so yes, this is quite obviously a topic I need to learn a lot more about. But considering that this was originally started as a mere scribble to try out what Manga Studio 5 can do and I never really intended for it to go anywhere… heck, I’m insanely pleased with how this turned out. ^_^
