More comic book experiments



I've been playing around more with inks. Bought myself a crowquill pen and some nibs. It gives surprisingly good line control. The solid blacks are filled in with japanese brushpen and then the pictures are scanned and coloured in Photoshop. I also used photoref more than I normally do. This allowed me to focus more on style rather than the design of the characters.

  1. Very nice work. Especially the 2 last ones, love the inking and the palette.
    Amin shouldn't get involved with General Voltan, nothing good will come out of it.

  3. Awesome stuff, love that last one! You seem to have nailed the methods of dropping whole areas of the painting into black and it works great here.

  4. Lovely work! The last image in particular really works well - reminds me a little of the Tintin books!
