Coloring by hand is definintly time consuming...but patience is important in order to improve.
I always thought your digital coloring was excellent. The color schemes and compositions worked well in the Blue Balance, Solar Sniper, and Red Rhythm character drawings.
Landscapes...those are pretty difficult. I can bearly place characters in a room.

Hurgurg I hate those drawings now.
Eko looked awkward and not as sleek as he should (and the so-called buildings were stupid). Lake's colourscheme was entirely improvised and it didn't come out as colourful and vibrant as I prefer it now. I wasn't used to drawing Kafka at all yet and attempted a sort of pose I had never really done before, and it looked awkward.
Plus they were all done in GIMP with overly thick lines. Not to mention I can simply draw them better now. Might try revisions of those concepts though. Maybe with some other characters too.

GIMP is good, all things considered, but I just really love the polygonal lasso, and find that while it's generally possible to get to the same ends in both programs (as long as you aren't going really extreme), GIMP's just more difficult to use for complex stuff.

I only use GIMP for avatars and signatures, never for drawings. Too complex, plus I prefer coloring my drawings with colored pencils.

I don't even own a solid set of coloured pencils. When I get a box of them, I buy it noncritically, and often deal with them being really skritchy (if anyone gets what I mean), nigh impossible to sharpen, and with a poor colour selection.
I've never been able to shade with the damn things either. When making one shade darker than another shade, it involves colouring solidly for the darker shade, and the light shading being ugly colour scribbles intermittently strewn over an evidently white surface.

By the way screw the landscape I'll do that later. I feel like drawing something else.

I like Gimp, despite having to learn special techniques to take advantage of it's full potential. I have never had Photoshop and don't ever intend to buy it(400 dollars my ass), but I'm sure it's easier and faster to use than Gimp.
