Description
The cover for Nonplayer #1, released April 6 2011 by Image Comics.All of the pages for Nonplayer are drawn directly in Photoshop CS3 using a Cintiq tablet monitor. For line work I use default brush settings at 100% hardness.
For coloring, I use the popular Multifill and Flatten plugins ([link] ) to build selectable areas of color, and then I add new layers of color at different blend modes and opacities (this is a pretty random, haphazard, and slow process).

Wow these pages are so amazing : D
I'd like to buy the comic, I'll search for it in Amazon or any place to see if I could get it from my country (Spain)
Hugs.

Fantastic art and thanks for letting us know what you used to draw. I read the preview and am now really excited. Definitely going to need to pick this up once I have some money. Keep up the fantastic work.

i hate you so much... i saw this on cbr and started reading. there were little tears of joy forming as my hear jumped of joy...
finally, someone with a thoughtfully crafted fantasy tale, great characters, fantastic opening
and then came the page with word korea
i still wicsh there was someone with a camera recording cause i facepalmed so hard i had a handprint on my face for an hour later....i actually borderline screamed noooooooooooooooo.... it was a mere loud yell
cause then i realised it is an mmorpg world comic
and my heart sunk into an utter depression
and yes, just to clarify, i am busing this 1000 percent, each issue will be lovingly added to my collection
but simply cause i adore the meticulous craftsmanship
yeah.. ill probably like the story too, i noticed the skillful writing so comic will probably rock overall
but there are just too few good fantasy comics with writing and art that can excite a fantasy geek like myself
and you did it... and then crushed my heart
daaaaaamn yooooouuuuu!!!!!!
now im off to wait for the mailman with my copy XD
keep up the excellent work

I wanted to let you know that I've put NonPlayer in my Pull List after reading the preview. The visuals are just stunning. And I have to say you've got yourself a leg up on the dot hack stuff with the story. I was wondering how far you plan on going with the comic? Is it going to be a ongoing comic or a mini series?
