Context: For Editor's Day here in ATL and in Savannah I'm doing a five page flashback story to 10-9 of Ahimsa's days as a fresh faced private before he became the royal badass captain of his own task force with emotional constipation.
Futher Context: It's also my final project to Computer Coloring.
NO PRESSURE.
Considering this pretty much is the quater I have to do things three times over before getting it right and I have 20 days to get this baby done give or take a day or two it's time to kick it into high gear.
As you can see the top was a study I spit out today that was completely digital the bottom being three panels I attempted to draw and ink by hand. Isn't the style deviation rediculous? @_@ It's just something I do completely naturally. Put a stylus in my hand and I rock out, put a pencil in my hand and I'm like a five year old with crayolas. It even befuddled Nolan a bit when I showed him the side by side comparison.
Unless I'm mimicing a simple style you can pretty much kiss anything uber complicated goodbye when I'm using traditional media. It's been explained to me that my hand 'gets shy' on paper and the second I screw up that's the end of it, however when I work digital it's only a matter of deleting the layer and going again. Likewise the difference is time. Traditionally easily takes me four times as long to do anything, Digitally on the other hand is a fraction of that. The speed between the two is rediculous.
Obviously I'm going to need to get advice on how to make the Uber Pretty on my paper and not be shy about it.
Is it considered somewhat creepy if I mention how awesomely hot Ahimsa came out in the digital study? The poor lamb and his shorn noggin. XD Rock that uniform Private!
