Here is where I am now. Made a lot of progress but the whisky is catching up with me pretty quick. More later.

Making progress on the page 14 colors. I'm pretty excited by how the first scorpion is coming along:

Page 14 inks

I got the inks done on page 14 last night but the scan came out a bit funky. I think it's a solid page and I did pencils and inks in one week. Ok that isn't exactly fast but it is faster than I have been working. My goal is to finish the colors before Friday.

Here's the full scan:

page 14

scanned in the board in 6 pieces and pieced it together and it looks ok. I was worried that the inside edges would look bad. anyway, more tomorrow.

Made some decent progress on page 14. Solid layout. Made a first pass at the composition and started adding details. Unfortunately I had ran out of bristol board so I dug out some super-thick illustration board Bruce and I were experimenting with a few years ago. It's 20x14, has a smooth hard surface and it's great to pencil on. I imagine it will be even better to ink on however it is about 1/8th on an inch thick! So Now that I have made some decent progress I am worried about scanning this beast in. Here it is on my drawing board.



And some of the detail. (Nate cowering at the appearance of the men in lab coats!)

missing time, weddings and crashed computers

Missed a couple days at the end of last week trying to get some stuff done for my sister-in-law's wedding in South Carolina last weekend. Now I'm back. Fixed my computer (again) and am ready to get back to work. hopefully I can get a page colored by monday.

Almost done with this. got a little to do on the back grounds, panel 1 and some clean up but this is pretty much it. some work to do over the weekend and then on to page 9.

Back into colors now. Kevin has to add the words, then this should go up over at Legendsofsuperwrestle.net pretty soon. WE are trying to get a page a week up for the next couple weeks. I am already a few days behind on that but this was a good page for shaking the rust off. Let me know what you think.
