This is some art I did awhile back for this quirky comic with my bro Ethan. When ever i post stuff from one of my comics I’m really conscious of the fact that it usually come from the middle or the later pages of the book. I'm always a much better artist by the time i get to the end of a book and I'm a little embarrassed about how amateur the beginning looks comparatively. That's just how it is an artist; we're never satisfied for too long with our work.
Or maybe its just me but, i cant be the only one who feels the right?
My process stays pretty pretty consistent from piece to piece.
I start off by simply penciling the best i can. i start with a rough sketch in blue color pencil then i lightly erase it and pencil over the residual blue to get the cleanest sketch possible.
The sketch took about 4 days and it was done on 11x17 bristol board art paper
(standard for comic book portfolio's)
After the sketch is finished I take it to Staples to have it scanned on a big flat-bed scanner.
i have them make a high-res pdf file for me (300 dpi). I take that file home and work on it in Photoshop.
The rendering consist of a 18-20 layer process that takes about 10-14 hours
That’s pretty much it for this post
I’ll be posting more frequently from now on and I hope you guys stop by again
Thx for hanging out ✌️
