Description Heres some more BG work that is actually a panel from the SpiderMan plot that im working on right now. This is the version that i lay on TRACING PAPER and then draw from onto my original board. This plot is taking a little longer to knock out because of a few things, but the main reason is that i am attempting some new things in my work, and obviously that changes the scope of alot things when applied.

Well, wnjoy the tease and i will post the full version when i get done, AIGHT!
PEACE!

Background work! Definitely something I need to respect in my work. It's always the last thing I think about or I don't put much time in on it.

Nice to see you post this. You just gave me a swift kick in the ass bro and I appreciate it.

Yeah man, im the same way, i know i can do them but i didnt like doing much at all, but recently, i realized that if i dont do them now i will NEVER get work, so if my word of advice to anybody could be anything it would be, DO EM! They only make your piece look better anyway at the end of the day. Thanks for the props man.

That's a dope variation on that panel. I'm pretty sure your still working on it, but I'd suggest adding a little more detail to the foreground building. Maybe some lights, and put a few plants on there or something.
But I bet your still adding to it....

Yeah man, i know the pain you speak about man, and trust me i have it ALL THE TIME! But i gotts do em, or i dont get hired its that simple for me. Thanks for the compliment man.

lonewolf304 In reply to chriscopeland [2006-12-29 07:10:24 +0000 UTC]

it's a very lengthy process -- thus, the pain. But when you have a very nice background like this one, that would just take away the thorns of making backgrounds.

I believe even my hero Jim Lee doesn't even enjoy the backgrounds -- coz I think he's dying to define and refine the characters first -- like me. Let's ask Leinil and Mark, next... hehehe

keep up the good work, dude.

chriscopeland In reply to lonewolf304 [2006-12-29 07:34:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeah i know for a fact that Leinil prefers to do the Character refinement as well, so TRUST me we aint alone yo.

Me and my girl are planning to check out that cafe sometime when we have time Ai is still killing us, not for too long tho.....this does kind of remind me of that "michigan st." view tho, nothing wrong with that tho. Maybe just shows your influences. U wrote this story?

Thats tight man, its not going to be open to the public for a couple of months, but if you ever want to come and check it out, hit me up here, and let me know when you want to. As far as the story goes, i didnt write it, it was posted on Marvel a long time ago, and i got it from my brother as it is not posted there anymore.
