I recently sold a cartoon for greeting card usage that has been published previously in Reader’s Digest.
Of course the card will be in color, but the size I usually work in for the Digest is much smaller than the final greeting card, so I had to do the color again from scratch.
Just for fun, I made sure I didn’t look at the original Digest color (finished 11/14/04 according to the file info), just to see how different the greeting card version (finished today) might be.
Turns out I’m just not that creative when it comes to color (click to enlarge)…

I like it. Congrats on re-selling the cartoon. Do you color your cartoons by hand, or on the computer?
I do it all on the computer anymore. That little Wacom tablet gets a workout.
