When we started the comic strip, we wanted to capture the old newspaper feel of the comics we read growing up so we decided against color. However, after a few weeks we changed our mind and started coloring them, at first with flats but later added shadows as well. The reason we moved away from black and white was to visually give our strip a more modern feel. For us, while black and white did achieve the look of the old newspaper prints, we felt it ultimately made the comic feel less modern so we went back and colored the previous strips and have been coloring them since.
