Re: VanderHuge Studios

Finally finished penciling* this. And I can show the whole thing because it's all mostly dialogue and doesn't show anything important. *Penciling being laying it out and drawing with light blue colored pencil. Now on to the arduous task of drawing/tracing with a real pencil. Which will hopefully have just as much detail, but with more refinement and cleaner line work. We'll see, I guess. Here's the background for panel 1. I started drawing backgrounds and gestures on transparencies then lightboxing them to save the paper's lifespan. I'm using super cheap comic boards and they don't take too kindly to erasing and erasing and erasing. This saves me from making holes and helps reduce clutter from panels so I can draw people and objects without worrying about accidentally erasing important lines of the background, or vice versa.

I actually used them a second time because they're pretty well known and I correctly assumed that this really was some sort of one in a million fluke. And it was, the second order was a good batch. Next thing I post will probly be the second, unrelated, correctly printed
