ColorLab is amazing fun!
It took me a little while to figure out how aspects of ColorLab worked with solid and toned color, but once I did, it was like magic ! It is so fun to use, and I just can't stop thinking about how much I enjoy the vintage halftones in all comics, and Colorlab brings it back! I'm still learning the colors but I'm enjoy playing around with this great product!

A new perspective on colour.
I’ve been obsessed with the ColorLab comic color kit ever since I purchased it. I had never worked in layered halftones before and found it exciting and refreshing. I can’t stop drawing with them!
The results they give are fantastic adding an authentic retro look to anything you apply them too.
The accompanying colour guides, pallets and skin tone charts are beautifully put together and extremely helpful.
To top it all off, the brushes are simple to use and feel natural and fluid. I couldn’t be more stoked with my purchase. Many thanks RetroSupply. Keep up the great work

Great pack!
I just loved how real those brushes look on digital drawings. I'm still learning how to use them, but I can say that I'm addicted to them! Plus, there's the paper pack, color sheet and instructions to make your piece looks really vintage.

Best offset printing brushes ever made!
This brush set is the perfect tool to simulate the retro offset printing style! The colors and patterns really capture that authentic feel. Pair it will all the tricks of the trade and you really establish a modern version of a classic style. Being the Graphic Designer/Prepress Manager of an offset printing company it is fun to bridge the gap between actual offset printing and the digital space.

Not just great brushes!
I was hesitant at first to purchase because most sellers only provide brushes with no guidance on best uses, which is VERY important for any layered applications like half tones. However when I saw it came with a full guides, charts, and even a sample sheet… I was all in. These are fantastic brushes and great guides.

Hi Brian,

I'm glad to hear the guides were helpful. Thanks for pointing them out in the review. We spent a HUGE amount of time updating and revising the guides to make sure they eliminated as much uncertainty and common problems as possible. Thanks for your support and feedback!
