Finished a page that I started last year to test a gel pen brush in CSP, it’s not bad, just felt like penciling for a bit too.
A fun wee spread from my A5 sketchbook, I flatted it really quickly in CSP with the intention of trying out some colouring techniques sometime.
Started off the month by messing around with this skull from May 2022 in clip studio.
Can’t remember who recommended the [AA] Gel Pen on twitter but I’m loving the line, reminds me of MUJI Gel Ink pens.
Some pencils and a bonus skull that didn’t make it onto last months page.
I’ve been slowly adding to this page in clip studio during breaks at work. Mostly drawn using the default g-pen with some texture/tone here and there.
A quick page for #BatmanDay sketched in Procreate. Someday I’ll draw a grumpy Jim Gordon fan comic and maybe include Bane and the Bat fella.
I left the iPad at home and took a wee sketchbook on holiday to fill a few pages. I’ve been wanting to get back to drawing on paper again and it felt pretty good to ditch the undo gesture for a bit.
Here’s the raw inks:
Picked up a new pen from empik and a copy of RELAX #38 from the airport. Really impressed with the production and large format of RELAX, astounding work from Jakub Rebelka, Philippe Cazaumayou, etc.
Declan Shalvey recently posted this panel from his creator owned comic Old Dog starting an inking challenge on twitter:
It’s been fascinating to watch the various approaches to this single panel and I couldn’t help but think of 99 ways to tell a story when I saw each new interpretation throughout the past week or so.
Anyway, it’s been getting a wee bit quiet here on the blog so thought I’d post up my attempt in pencils from a few nights ago.
Old Dog is out on Aug 31 Sept 28 and looks great so be sure to check out issue zero and subscribe to Dec’s newsletter.
Yikes, it’s the end of the month so I’m clearing out the auld iPad to free up some of those precious megabytes.
#AlienDay happened again, apparently its an annual thing.
Some more heads and a bat fella.
Just tweaking a thumbprint brush I created in CSP along with some other inking tests.
A wee 2021 sketchdump… sadly, not much time for drawing this year.
Quite a few months between these but I had fun with the Audrey II sketches… Feeeeeed me Seymour!!!
Been feeling a little aimless with my inking this last year, a little bored with the lines I’m putting down. This page was an attempt to concentrate on pencilling again, to shake the rust off.
Very quick fan art of Matt Garvey from back in October, drawn in procreate.
Some other stuff from the sketchbook…
