HAHAHAHAHA...haven't..but doesn't mean I haven't seen it. And it takes you 4 hours to do a page O_O...damn wish I was that quick. I can honk out one in about 6.

rantz In reply to sketchartist76 [2008-08-22 17:55:33 +0000 UTC]

It depends on the page actually - I've done a page in an hour before....and I've done one that took me three days straight to do....all depends on t he page. Layout is the toughest part for me - after that is figured out, then it all comes together.

sketchartist76 In reply to rantz [2008-08-23 02:07:01 +0000 UTC]

Whew...made me feel bad. Yeah..actually mine varies too..but no way have I done one in an hour.
Layout's kinda tough for me too..mine's just letting it go. I LOVE to add detail...and it hurts my deadline.

Looking at this page, your colored style would look awesome as an Anime style format. Keep'em pumpin!

you think so? Like a cell type coloring?

StevenSanchez In reply to rantz [2008-08-21 18:20:08 +0000 UTC]

Yup! You have a lot of gesture which lends to the animated style so the transition should look flawless. Give it a whirl

And yes, you can name your happy thumb after me.

what counts as black, and what requires hatching?

👍: 0 ⏩: 2

rantz In reply to shyft9 [2008-08-21 17:31:05 +0000 UTC]

little x's typically indicate black, but I try and leave a lot of room for creative license, and interpretation.

shyft9 In reply to rantz [2008-08-21 20:29:30 +0000 UTC]

one more quick question: the bottom margin, where is the bottom most panel line?

It's either the one that's well above the text at the bottom of the page, or it's the line that intersects the text.

rantz In reply to shyft9 [2008-08-21 20:53:15 +0000 UTC]

the one going thru the text.

shyft9 In reply to rantz [2008-08-21 21:19:47 +0000 UTC]

roger that, thank you! If my current speed maintains I... Have no idea when it's going to be done. How long do inkers usually take?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

rantz In reply to shyft9 [2008-08-21 21:43:18 +0000 UTC]

a couple hours....LOL! it all depends. Most would probably take about 6-8 on this one, I would think - there's a lot of clean up, and open areas for textures, and crap - LOL

shyft9 In reply to rantz [2008-08-22 03:18:41 +0000 UTC]

are some of the angel's faces and wings supposed to be unfinished?

rantz In reply to shyft9 [2008-08-22 13:55:01 +0000 UTC]

If you are referring to the second angel in from the left - she is farther away, so her features are less visible, yes. The first angel on the left, this is where creative license comes into play.

well, i have a goal to shoot for. I started this at about 1:30, i'm about half done inking the big guy in the first panel.

Psychorror In reply to shyft9 [2008-08-21 05:51:10 +0000 UTC]

Any areas marked with an "x" are blacked out. Hatching is pretty much up to the Inker- but depending on the Pencils, you can see what they intended to have Hatched.
