07.06.18. ...and almost a week went by...

So I did my “normal” thing (he says after only two weeks of posts...) and did not post on Friday and Saturday. Then we had a busy Monday with a hospital visit (partly planned) followed by a busy Tuesday as my son turned 4. Don’t know where Wednesday went, but here we are. 

Work has continued. I’ve lettered page 2 and 3. 


I do my lettering in Illustrator and then import it to Photoshop (usually with my son sitting on my lap watching something on my computer...). Special lettering, like sound effects and signs, I do in Photoshop. I find the text/image manipulation better there than in Illustrator, where as the continuous editing of text is way better in Illustrator. 



I have started laying out page 4-6 ( or chapter 2, page 1-3, if you wish) bit at this stage, even I am having trouble telling what’s what. When they look a little clearer, I’ll post them. 

Have a great day. (And as always, you wanna let me know how I’m doing, please post below.)

31.05.18. I’m in shock...

This was one of those pages I never thought I’d finish. Can’t show you everything, but a few detail-shots I guess would be ok.


See?!? I’m not the only one who’s shocked...

   
Ominous, isn’t it...?



The story is called Ghost Sails, remember?

30.05.18. Panel-borders?!? Where we’re going, we don’t need panel-borders...

I’ll just leave this here and let you ponder what else is out there...

29.05.18. A little magic did happen today as well.

Somehow moving at a bit of a “steady” pace. Don’t tell anyone... already shown her, but this is Felicia. Say hi everyone...or she may curse you...

27.05.18. “You did what?!?”



I did do work but between one thing and another, it was posting or sleeping the last two nights. I am enjoying doing some actual inking as oppose to just ruling backgrounds. 



Works continuing, that’s what’s important.

24.05.18. Why...

I sometimes wonder why art takes me so long. Then I decide to do a panel like this... 

...and it all becomes clear. 

That being said, I really enjoyed this panel.
