A Beatles piece I was commissioned to draw for some window blinds. Made to be divided down the middle and seen from a distance.
This was my first time using Manga Studio.
Textures Reference
From The Art of Comic Book Inking 2 by Gary Martin. I found this weird little book in one of my local comic shops. The first few pages are discussion on line-weight, joining contours, texture guides, and other inking minutia I rarely see covered in art books. The rest of the book consists of a few pages penciled by one artist, then inked by three to four other artists so you can see the differences in how they approach inking the same page. I’ve never seen anything like this, but the first volume is nowhere to be found.
Here are the pages devoted to texture, and I can post some of the inking comparisons as well.
Sorry for any quality issues – I can’t bring myself to unbind a book.
I’ve been doing a lot of my own drawing but still haven’t uploaded for no good reason. Lately the coloring stage has been frustrating enough for me to delete several days of work at a time. Like six drawings, right out the window. Will I never learn? Until I get a handle on this, I’ll keep posting some reference scans that ya’ll might find useful.
