Let's really get this here comic book community going here, yeah?! On the off chance you are new to me and my work, I have a real treat for you.
A while back I was tasked with illustrating the first issue of the re-launch of The Tick. Sadly, many of the covers I've done for various comics I didn't have the time or foresight to take a lot of ptogress shots of. This one however, I did!
I have a folder fulla progress shots
First you start with a thumbnail sketch
at this point maybe you're thinking ( how do you figure out all the perspective and vanishing points?)
ah, that's easy!
Then I usually blow it up and light table it
Then ya just ink the bastard! I use a brush for everything...because I hate myself.
Normally I start inking by doing the short curved lines, I'm most comfortable with those so it's a good way to get into gear and see how fussy the brush is today.
and that's that. Then I scan it...realize I didn't remember to erase the darker pencil lines, erase the darker pencil lines, scan it again and give it to someone who knows how to use computers to color. and then off it goes to the publisher to mare up with logos!
