Chapter 1 is coming along! 8 pages penciled and inked.
For inking, I've decided to go with a brush for main characters/foregrounds, and a G-pen nib for backgrounds/details. I'm a fan of inking everything with the same tool--it looks consistent and it's faster if you don't switch tools in the middle of a page--but letting myself use a tool like the G-pen allows me to draw very fine lines and make backgrounds more detailed and delicate. I'm really happy with how the environments are turning out. Slowing down and taking the time to look up reference have also helped a lot with that.
Brilliant! So looking forward to trading you Yankee dollars for the finished work.
ReplyDeleteAnd please - take your time; I love your linework. Call me old school, but the attention you put into your detail and character animation shines like a good deed in a sorry world. Lovely, vivid...you're kicking ass like a crazy monkey..!
