Three Panels

Worked on a fun little three panel strip with @sizemore for Warren Ellis' Three Panel feature on his site.

Not sure if he's seen it yet, but I thought I'd post it up.

Xenomorph Lunchbreak Paint

Had a bash at drawing the alien a while ago, and really enjoyed it.
I must visit the world of Giger again.
Truly one of the finest movie monsters of all time.

Prickly Fiend

No, I don't know why he's so angry.
Maybe it's cos he doesn't have any pants that fit?

Big Fat Robot

A friend of mine wrote something that spoke of large, terraforming robots, so I took my damn pencils, and I drew one.
BRRRRRRUMMMMMMMMMMMMM....

Deep Black Sea

Photoshopped sketch inspired by a story idea my mate threw at me the other day.
More shall be revealed in time, I guess.

Digital Inking

I'm attempting to put together a comic at the moment, and I've been having a pop at the digital inking process. I've never been able to find a good balance with the Wacom that would give me the quality of line I'd like to achieve.
In my mind, I'd always seen the inking process on this project being done by hand, but before I gave up on the digital version, I thought I'd give it a try.
The results were a little frustrating.
When the computer wasn't crashing, I was able to get quite a nice line quality, but the biggest annoyance was a very simple one - I couldn't turn the screen like I can a sketchbook.
It seems mad that such a simple element could cloud my decision as to how to progress, and no doubt there are many people who could instruct me in the ways of digital art, but for the time being, I think the next step is to try it the old fashioned way....

In the meantime, here's today's progress.

Step 1: Pencils


Step 2: Ink



Step 3: Shading



Step 4: Colours



Step 5: Finishing touches

Merica in your pocket

Howdy.
On request, I have knocked up some Merica goodies from the sketches in the credits of Precision.
Please help yourself to some iPhone wallpapers and a desktop wallpaper featuring the girl herself.
I realise I'm not exactly covering everyone's requirements by pandering to the iCommunity, but if anyone would like something knocking together, I'm happy to have a bash at it.

Dig in.
