Silk wanna do a cage match, colorisation match, i wanna be the king of colorisation.
here are the rules
The image can be a colored original, but then you gotta out it in grayscale, and use DIFERENT COLORS than the original.
the pic have to include 1 or more motorized non-organic things (cars. planes, computers[they have CPU wich counts as a motor]) but apart from that anything does.
submissions by wednsday.

Come on then, accept, or are you afraid of a 15 year old kid who just learned coloring???

EDIT:
oh yeah, the MAIN part of image gotta be the motorized part, like an airplane whit pilote, but not a guy and far away in the background a car or sumthin.

TCD it is standard practice for a colourisation is to start with a black and white image not a coloured image.

That and asking politely is the way to go about it not making childish threats.

It also sounds as though you have something lined up and ready to go which is off putting.

1: i do not have anything ready now
2:yes i know usingBW images is standard BUT its rather hard to find a good pic of a motorized vehicle or anything not colorized, i have found one before, and thats uploaded in the gallery, personally i like using BW images from start, but put it there, incase i find something i would like to see whit other colors, but if silk is nok whit it, we can remove that lol.

TCD...first, you can never enter a colorized image here at Pixel Addiction that starts out as a color original (unless you are the photographer). Desaturating a color image and then colorizing it is against copyright laws. You may colorize images that started out as black and white...but NEVER images that were color and then changed to grayscale, unless you have written permission from the photographer/copyright holder of the image.

As for accepting a head to head with you, I would accept your challenge, but honestly I don't have the time for a head to head right now. My suggestion is you either a) challenge someone else, or b) use the time between now and when I do have time to accept your challenge, to practice your colorization skills. Remember that details in an image are extremely important. Pay close attention to masking, and making sure that your colors don't bleed outside of the lines of the image.

If I can help you with your colorizing, I'd be more than happy to do that....and thank you for the challenge, TCD. :)
