Thanks for posting Jeremy. That's true. This version is Kirby pencils + inks. My understanding is the original color concept art is credited as Kirby pencils, Frank Giacoia inks, and Kirby colors.

Thanks for the comment. I don't own the color version. Presently it resides with a collector in the UK.
