Ending With a Bang

The pencilling and lettering for the six page mini-comic are now complete, bringing things to their exciting (or not) conclusion. Not much to say regarding this so lets dive right in, shall we?

Here's page five:
And page six:
I'm probably going to add in some more background details for some of the panels before inking them. Speaking of which, I now have six pages that I have to ink by Tuesday of next week! Ack! I may not get all of that done, especially since I will be ostensibly busy for much of the weekend (though in practice I'll probably be sitting around for long periods of time so I may be able to get some work done on things - we'll see), but I'll do what I can.

And so it Continues...

With the start of the new term, the comic workshop has resumed for its final four to five sessions. The homework is continuing to walk us through creating our mini-comics with this week bringing us up to about the first two-thirds mark for the pencilling and lettering. I did some extra work over the holidays to get a bit ahead of schedule, but for now, here are the third and fourth pages.

Page 3:And page 4:
I'll probably be adding a bit more detail to some of the backgrounds when I do the inking (speed lines and that sort of thing). Of note, the woman and daughter in the last panel of page 4 appeared in the first page of the original four page mini-comic where they overheard the g4m3rz abusing the English language (seems like the mother-daughter pair might become something of a running gag if I do any more of these.

We'll be talking about inking with a brush in this week's session after which pages 5 and 6 of the mini-comic will be posted (though I still have to work out some layout issues for page 6).
