Process

I start by designing the creature. 

I get a mental picture of what I want it to look like. 

Then I'm off to the races. I usually start with the head.

My pencils are really loose.

 I continue onward down the body. 

I'm using Microns to ink. 

My big secret is how I get my line quality is...

I double up on my inks. 

Now its time to scan, I do black and white 400dpi.

 Photoshop time!

I'm going for a cool color pallet. 

I flat out my color scheme.

 Add highlights and shadows.

 The image was provided by the talented photographer:

Composite into the shot... some color grading, shadows on the ground. 

Added some breath steam to show how chilly the scene was.

Buying some fancy 11x17 Bristol paper, and some new pens later this week for the big comic. You might see some pages this weekend. But till then, here is some more sketchbook nonsense.

Rough thumbnail idea.

Pencil minimal inking.

Almost there.

BAM! Color and layout!

Another Poster

All inked up.

I got rid of the Airship; I thought the idea was too overdone. So I'm going to put in a flying robot instead. I need scan this beast in now, which won't be easy cause the paper is 11x14. Sorry about the picture quality, my workplace has poor lighting.

Something to do tonight!

I love hour long lunch breaks! I'm gonna ink the living daylights out of this tonight.
