Micron

More inking with Micron markers. Trying to find the right line wheight.

Micron

I had problems inking in Photoshop so now I try a new approach. I'm converting my pencils to non photo blue and printing them out. This segment is inked with micron markers. Paper is standard copying paper so it bleeds a bit. Lives up the lines I think. Compare with the same frame two posts down.

I found an excellent tutorial on how to convert pencils to blue here.

Tools

Trying some new stuff. Pencilling in Photoshop then printout, ink with markers, scanning inks, clean up and adding some color.

New/old frame.

Drawing some random tools.

Layout

The plan was to start with the first 12 pages but I got carried away and made a new layout for pages 1-17. I hope this will add clarity to the story. Meanwhile Stefan is rewriting some of the text.

Back in the studio.

Taking up the work with Dogs after a long brake. Feels good to be back. I'm trying a new approach to layout starting with the first 12 pages. The plan is to find a little ruffer line and drawing style. The the reasons for this is among others to be able to create a page easy to read and of course efficiency. Tried to use Manga Studio for layouts but for now the learning curve for a new app is too steep. Photoshop works fine.
