I can't share the high res at this time; hopefully, you can download from here and have enough to play with it!

awesome work!
a question please... Mark: he is at Ireland you are at the US, does he send you a high res that you print and ink on top? do you print and ink on trace paper or other special paper not to have "epson" under your art? or does he mail the actual pencil via certified mail or anything? how do you pros manage it?

He sends me the actual pencils on Dark Horse board via FedEx. I work blueline too, but with stuff this detailed, they lose something in the translation. Real pencils are always better if you can get 'em!

I see, so its best to FedEx.
I'm sorry I didn't quite get "I work blueline too, but with stuff this detailed, they lose something in the translation." you mean blue pencil is not as good as graphite when you ink?
thanks for your answer, I am gonna get pencils as much as I can

No, blueline is when I get a scan of the pencils from the artist, convert it to blue linework (blue lines won't reproduce when scanned, so you can ink right over them) in the computer, then print out on my own board.

ah ok I got it, thanks!
I also heard that inking on printed pencils ruins the price as original art
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It definitely lowers the price- for some reason, collector's don't seem to realize the same amount of work goes into it- but doesn't necessarily ruin it, just lowers it.

Go figure, that's cause they've never inked a page, well at least it's not a complete loss. Thanks for the help Mark.
