SKETCHES!! MORE!!!
Added 2021-11-12 22:55:04 +0000 UTCHere are some sketch pages I was scribbling on a few weeks ago. This was at the time I was specifically really leaning into that Frendenβs Inker super hard. Lotta Frank Miller and Jose MuΓ±oz vibes here. Also, my friend had told me about making it so that the pencil tool ONLY read as black, thus excising all the gray from it, and giving it a much different texture, and so all of the graphic-looking shading you see was done that way!
I honestly really like this stuff, and would be down to do like a super contrasty comic in this style, if I could figure out the whole thing. I think itβs easy to get caught up in gray areas tho with that pencil tool. And I also feel like a comic with these vibes would lean super heavily in all different kinds of aesthetic directions - from like really cartoony to really dark and serious; I think thatβs cool, but I would definitely need to formulate a story for which that would make sense!
Fun little notes: top left of the first page was a quick redraw of a MuΓ±oz character from Alack Sinner to see if I could get the quality of his linework (which I believe I did!); top left on the second page is a redraw of a Breccia character from The Eternaut 1969 - I donβt think it looks as close as the MuΓ±oz, but I think it does the job okay; and the top left on the third page is Gertrude, but with a much larger, Frank Miller-esque chin (hers is usually almost non-existent, depending on the angle lol) - honestly, she looks really dominating and really hot like DANG. Haha
Hope yβall enjoy these! I have some new pieces I will be doing posts for shortly, when I have the motivation :D Thanks so much for your patronage!
