Artist's Comments

This is a lot like the Spock I did. I found the original black and white source art, then colored it cause I liked how it looked, I'm currently, slowly working on an entire crew in color.

Enjoy.

Here's the source poster.

This is gorgeous! How did you manage to colorize a black and white photo so perfectly?!

I'm off to take a look at your Spock one, and I'll be watching for the rest of the crew!

Thanks. It's all photoshop. I used a lot of Hue/Saturation and Selective Color filters with masks in order to achieve the colors I wanted. It provides color variation and looks more natural than multiplying or overlaying a flat color onto a b&w photo.
:iconalpha-geek:
No problem!
Oh, I see. I might try that sometime, it seems like a simple process for such an amazing finished product.

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out to even the edge of doom.

I'm usually all for black and white photos but this set for Star Trek didn't mesh well for me, especially since Kirk seemed "grittier" than the rest. And Spock is the only one in high shadow. I love that you gave these picks some color! It really made a big difference for me. Much more lively now. Not to mention, you can't use black and white when you have someone like Chris Pine with such intense blue eyes! It's just wrong... T-T *goes off to drool*
