I've got an early start on next Sunday's Kickman page. Most of this story arc was written out about a year ago when I first contacted the Collective of Heroes creative group and asked "anyone have a sidekick I can use in a story arc where they are all playing a D&D-esque game?" Pogo, Frank (technically not a sidekick), and Minor Spoiler were all offered up as volunteers and away I went.
Here's the process pics...
Step 1: Borders. Technically, this step involves doing nothing except launching my Kick Template file.
Step 2: Copy-Paste the table from earlier in the chapter and resize for each panel.
Step 3: Copy-paste outlines of the borrowed characters from earlier in the chapter, then scribble in my characters where they need to be in the rough draft.
Step 4: Brand new ink layer over the blue virtual pencils.
Step 5: Erase the rough layer and color in everything. Actually I just now realized that I forgot to cut and paste the miniatures on the board. And I know that all of you are very concerned about the 10 dracamazon sentries guarding the entrance to the catacombs. I'll be sure to add those in before I publish the final on Sunday.
So, add in some tabletop miniatures, add the text, and done! Here's a gif for those of you that are easily mesmerized by moving pictures...
