Initial D manga in color| Initial D World | |
IDW Facebook Fanpage  Group: Staff Posts: 383 Member No.: 37,931 Joined: Sep 27th 2011 Location: Initial D World | For many Initial D fans that read the manga or just manga in general will notice one obvious thing, there are no colors. Of course, the majority of manga are drawn in black and white even to this day. Even though it devoid of any colors, it somehow can still vividly depict the story effectively, sometimes even better than if it were drawn in colors. The reason for that is because there are no better painter in this world than our imagination. The manga may be colorless, but our mind constantly fill them with colors as we read them. To me, even full panel color manga can't replace what our mind can do. Zach McElroy (kyonpalm), an avid Initial D fan, started a thread on the forums a few years back dedicated to coloring Initial D manga. He claims to have hundreds of these!

I really love doing these but I stopped because it's too time-consuming a process to me. It's been over four years since that thread was started. It feels kinda weird that it's just recently being shared and stuff. |

Also, I know I've told you this many times. But that Jade color on Iketani's car is AMAZING! Seriously man, if you have new ones then bump that thread! You might just get me to post there too.
