Update 5/15/2009

Well, it's been a while since I've posted anything. It's not that I've been slacking though, far from it! I've almost finished Bitter Pill - Rush, AND I'm on my third draft of Doctor Who - The Sands of Shara! It has been two weeks since my shop, Comic Universe, closed, and I've been using the time off wisely. Besides my creative endeavors, I began planting a vegetable garden in my backyard! It's a lot of work, but it's also very fun! But enough about that, let's get on to some art, shall we? As always, click the image to see full size.

Bitter Pill - Rush page 5

Just a quick one today

So, I've finished coloring pages 3 and 4 of Rush. I will have pages 5 and 6 up in the next few days or so. Enjoy!

Bitter Pill page 2!

And here we are with page 2! I may change the color of the captions boxes, but for now it's all done!

A little background on my coloring style for these pages. I started the book out with mostly warm colors because it fit with the theme of fear, and the intensity I wanted for the first page and a half. Reds and oranges, etc.

As he gets closer to (Salvation? Help? A way out?) the page takes on a calmer, cooler color palette. He may seem cornered, but there's something better waiting on the next page. I did keep to using warmer colors for the dogs in panel 5 though.

I'm not sure how well it works right now, but hopefully after page 3 is up, it will all make sense.

Please comment, critique, etc. I'm all growed up now and can take it.
