page 15

mostly completed p 15 over the long weekend. This page caused me a ton of frustration for a number of reasons so I am glad the pencils are almost done.

How-to by Kazu

Here is a cool step-by-step of the process Kazu Kibuishi uses on his "Copper" strip. I especially like that he uses a "cheap flat-bed scanner" because, so do I.

page 12-13 finishes

page 12 -13 inks completed. Looking good I think. Also, I posted this to the flickr set if you want to see all 13 inked pages.

Process page 14 - rendering

Here is the second pass of pencils. I changed the gun a little in panel 5 because it looked too small in the original layout. And that's right...those are speed lines baby!

11 pages and counting

page-1, originally uploaded by MDTSHORT.

Photo set of the first 11 inked pages put up on flickr for sharing etc. I have pencils scanned for p12 (but not for 13) and am working on p 14 now. Moving right along. Anyway I was playing with various venues for posting/viewing this stuff and flickr seems pretty good. Tell me what you think - either here or there.

Process page 14 - sketch

Here is the first pass at page 14. sketch the whole thing with light pencil (2h or 4h). Making sure everything is ok before adding any lines or tone. (The big ugly gray streak in the middle is due to my small scanner.)
