Steven Colbert is making me terrified of bears.

For real... I've been having irrational nightmares about bears. Its silly. I'll chalk it up to late night Colbert Report and moonshine ;)
Hey! You know a good trick for figuring out your perfect color scheme? (Aside from scanning it into your computer and coloring it on Photoshop ;) Throw your line work on a copy machine and lighten the shit out of the image before you hit copy. Print out a bazillion of 'em! (Maybe even smaller versions to pump out some fast thumbnail versions before getting too involved with the process.) After you've finally figured out exactly what your palate craves by practicing on your copies, THEN you can throw on your white gloves and obsess over one beautiful, finished, non-smudgy, totally ready for jesus's approval, pristine, piece. ;)
