I'd love to have a color copy of this for my Bound Collection.
I can offer 25 bucks worth of Valiant books, any takers?
I'd like it to look sharp tho of course :thumb:

Is that 100 copies of Bloodshot #1, or 250 copies of Turok #1?

So, you're talking Shadowman 1-3, XO 1 and Solar # 5?

This is what I got so far since I can't seem to decide on how the background should look (and that would end up affecting what direction I need to continue coloring the figures and stuff further).

I like the one with Erica's face in B&W. I think that leaving that part of the cover"stand as is" has a startling look which I simply LOVE.

Yeah; it's all done on Photoshop. I'm thinking of ditching the red-orange one since Solar seems to blend too much into it. Might color Erica but I want it to fit with the background somewhat.

Yea, I like the White one but maybe erica's face colored even lightly. The green around the box is kinda off too maybe try a different color like the gold for that. I think all the Character's are colored Perfect accept X-O looks a little off, great job again man :clap:

I agree... the only thing I would do to the "white" cover is put some colours around Erica's eye, like Solar has when he's "exerting" his powers.
