Description *EDIT*
Had the full scans done today. Still a little off...but better than the first go around!
***************
Ok...whew...finally got this one done!
A 2 page spread from Velocity pencilled by Kenneth Rocafort. While I was inking this, I was completely amazed by this guy's attention to detail and fantastic skills. Wow.

I didn't have too much trouble, just fighting the burnout that comes from working on such a dynamic piece and not enough time this past week. It's got it's flaws and errors on my part, but overall, pretty happy to have jumped into it and managed to finish
WIP shots...

*NOTE*
I'm going to rescan this and re-post a better aligned version, right now it's 4 seperate scans stitched together, and it's not working 100%...

*EDIT*
Download for 300dpi *Read my terms of use please, Thanks*

Yeah I recently realized how much I love rocafort. Before I thought he was awesome (didn't know who he was but kind of recognized his style). Then I looked at his stuff more in detail and realized all his lines have a purpose and aren't just whimsical sketches or lines he puts out there. So much detail in his work it's crazy. I can't even imagine trying to ink something like this, congrats.

That's exactly what I've come to discover! He is an amazing artist I have learned so much from his lines!

Well a great pencil drawing can be ruined if done by a bad inker. and I say that it was done by a great inker with visible experience and talent.

slateman [2010-11-22 16:52:18 +0000 UTC]

I would push your lineweights thicker in the foreground to make it "read" a little easier. Other than that great work- lots of effort on this piece.

devgear In reply to slateman [2010-11-23 03:08:51 +0000 UTC]

Thanks man! Ya, I see what you mean...I'm still figuring out how much to pump them up without overdoing it.

prodigal-son In reply to devgear [2010-11-27 11:45:27 +0000 UTC]

linewheight is also something i struggle allot, i kind of like it like this though cause one of the problems i see with thicker line weights is that i can often ruin a piece by making it look very cartonny and somewhat artificial!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

devgear In reply to prodigal-son [2010-11-27 17:15:11 +0000 UTC]

I completely agree. I'm trying to find that line that still does the job of seperating all the elements without going overboard.
