Description I was cleaning up my files and thought this might be cool! Consider this a little New Year's gift c;

EDIT: Updating because the size was messed up originally! For some reason DA decided to ignore the size I wanted it at XP If you were unable to read it before you should be able to now.

I chose an older page because I wanted one with everyone together and we haven't had one of those in a while |D I save new versions of these as I work so photoshop doesn't eat them, which also means I have a pretty good record of my steps.

My process is pretty similar from page to page - just some little variences depending on time of day and location (so pages in cities take longer and have different organizational processes, for example).

If you have any questions please ask! I'd love to explain stuff (I'm kind of awful at it but I'll try, lol). And let me know if there's another page you'd like to see this for! I don't have multiple files for all of them but I do for a fair few.

Download if you're having trouble reading it!

Here's the finished page;Β Trick of the Night: Page 130 !

Ahhhh this is super cool! It's really interesting to see how you make these pages! Wow, you put a whole lot of work into these, and it really shows! I feel like I can appreciate each page even more now that I know every step.
And man I feel like I learned a whole lot of art stuff

This was a very interesting read. I enjoy learning about other's processes, especially if I can learn from then and improve my own. This definitely taught me a few things about comic making!

It's very helpful! I'd like to do some more comics in the future, and this would definitely help. ^^

It's always fun to see different people's processes for doing a page. About how long does it take you to do each page?

I think so too! So many ways to do the same thing vuv

I sketch and then finish pages separately, so I'd say usually 2 hours to sketch and then 6 to finish. But I know I've gotten pages sketched in 40 minutes, and I've had pages that I've spent 4 hours sketching. Same deal for finishing.

So I'd say they take on average 8-12 hours each, with some falling above and below that. Usually pages with any sort of buildings or a bunch of side characters take longer.

I really want to read this, but it won't let me zoom in enough for the words to be visible on either my phone or laptop, so it's all just a blur. =,( Like, when I click on it to zoom in it zooms about a half inch in and that's it. xD

Have you tried downloading it? The comic page in the corner is full sized so you should be able to zoom in far enough; it's a huge file. I can try making a cropped version of the top and bottom rows instead if you'd like ;o;

EDIT: Try now? It got resized when I posted for some reason XP

Ooh! I love seeing the process from other artists! Sometimes I get stuck with one way and forget about other possibilities that may help, so I think it's good to learn a bit of other people work xD

Agreed! Everyone does stuff a little differently.
