sketch 002

another sketch, this one of some characters i'm designing.  they don't show up until around issue #6, so it'll probably be...oh, ten years before you see their story.  ugh.

the nice thing about sketches it that they are supposed to look unfinished.  as much as i like using a brush for larger works, i'm discovering that i actually hate inking my comic work.  no matter how careful i am, the lines end up just a little too fat.  i refuse to switch to a crowquill, though i'm almost tempted to use rapidographs or, heaven forbid, felt tips.  given the current state of imaging and printing technology, using pencils for the final draft may not be such a bad idea.

anyhow, all things to think about.  i just gotta keep practicing.

hopefully more of the comic next week, or else this turns into a sketch blog real fast...
