Color testing

I tried testing out coloring methods. On the first panel I coloured the environment using a textured brush I made. It makes the panel have a traditional feel to it which is really nice and pays a sort of homage to earlier comics.
The bottom panel is done using flatter colours and appears a lot cleaner, this method would rely heavily on the lineart to carry the appeal for the panel though. However the modern look is really nice and brings out the lineart more.
I will continue to find the balance in between these two aesthetics as they both bring a certain look that I really like and think would fit the narrative well.
