TAY BRIDGE DISASTER COMIC acrylic tones

I spent the day adding tones with acrylics today.

Will be moving on to doing the cover for the collected comic book next.

TAY BRIDGE DISASTER COMIC photos and inks

I travelled over to Wormit this morning to take photos of the Tay Bridge, specifically looking to get pictures which included the stumps of the old collapsed bridge.

When I got back I pencilled the third and final panel, and then inked all of it.

I like the line drawings of the crash panel. I scanned that drawing and might do something with it. I'll be adding the watercolour black and white tones to the whole thing tomorrow.

TAY BRIDGE DISASTER COMIC more pencils

Two panels done. 

I'll be heading down to the Tay Bridge tomorrow to take some reference photos for that third panel.

TAY BRIDGE DISASTER COMIC #27

 

LIGET #3

This is Marc Casilli's latest issue of Liget, published by Incompleta.

One of the stories inside is a variation on the Harvey Pekar name story. This one is a kind of Marc Casilli face story, in which he discusses all the people and characters he's been compared to.

For the front cover, Marc has lots of these character faces in a Guess Who? style game.

On the back, he's asked different artists to draw pictures of his actual face, including Dominic Archer, Edson Bortolotte, Paula Cruz, Livia Fuhrmann, Joao B. Godoi, Debora Kamogawa, Kaina Lacerda, Mayara Lista, Isabelle Ribeiro, Hendric Sueit, and Gary Walsh.

I drew one too. It's in the middle at the front.

More details on Marc's comics can be found here.
