Chapter 1, Page 5

This is hands-down my favorite page of the bunch, entirely because of that top panel. In fact, that one image is the culmination of my entire artistic career. Well, I'm sure that was an exaggeration, but I will not retract the statement. I also think that panel was the biggest challenge of that page. For instance, that was the first nude male I'd drawn in a long time, but I think I he turned out quite glorious. Plus the ":/" face. Sorry about all that. Anyway, I used pretty much the same brushes and inks for this page as the rest. I think I also started going kinda crazy with the white lines in the black areas at this point. Well, that's about it for this installment.

Chapter 1, Page 4

Well, I'm not sure what to say about this page. By this time I had pretty much decided how I was going to work on the comic-- mostly with a number 2 white sable brush, using a number 4 to fill in areas. And there's dialogue now, oh my! It feels like kind of a lot after the last three pages, but it'll be staying there. I actually am doing all the lettering by hand, God help me. I minimized the possibility for huge mistakes by writing the lettering on a separate sheet of paper (just regular computer paper), with my #2 white sable brush, then scanning the lettering and laying it on the page via photoshop. Everyone around me said I was crazy to do the lettering with a brush, but look at me now! Kehkehkehkehkeh!

Well look at that. I actually found something to say about the page.
