...as I prepare for the poll results. There seems to a pretty clear winner at this point, but things could change. Still, never hurts to be prepared.
Most of my art time has been spent working on the the script for chapter 2 so not much to post, so I’m looking forward to the final poll results.
Have a great weekend everyone!
...Time to decide!
I'll keep this up till next week (Probably Monday). This will keep me sharp while I polish up the script for chapter 2.
Can't wait to see who our winner is!

Expect this months poll later today! :)

Colors came out a bit strange with this one. I'm pretty happy with the line art though. Was hoping to do a couple other images with Faye but last month was crazy! Time to move on to something different. Definitely something with bondage. :)

..."Ania knew that being a witches apprentice would be difficult. Demanding. Maybe even dangerous at time. But the rewards far outweighed the risk. And Mistress Luna...well, she was an amazing woman..."
It became painfully clear that I wasn't going to have time to finish the whole thing the other day (that damn chair). Probably for the best. The composition is boring (I'd planned to crop it at more of a Dutch angle) and I needed to move/redraw the witch as s...

...300 dpi .jpg attached. :)
I kinda messed up the .psd file when I flattened a bunch of layers. ^^; I have a slightly earlier version of the image (just missing a few layers) but I need to track it down. I have to go to work first but I hope to share it in the next day or so. Also, alternate version going up in a few minutes, so stick around.

...Best. Spell. Ever!
Hope you guys have some fun and spooky plans for today! I have to work, but I'm hoping for a scary movie late tonight. Hopefully Harbinger Down.
Also, a huge thanks to everyone for helping me out this month. Still can't believe we got Chapter 1 of BLACK LABEL done (mostly). More fun stuff coming soon (Friday?) so I hope you'll look forward to it!
Happy Halloween!

2018-10-30 06:07:57 +0000 UTC View PostI can’t believe BLACK LABEL Chapter 1 is done!
Lots of little fixes that still need to be made, but it’s done! Should have a .pdf put together for everyone soon!
Took a quick look at the script for chapter 2 and it needs a lot of polishing, but I should be able to start sketching the thumbnails soon. :) Also this week there will be a special Halloween post going up. There’s also a color image I need to finish up, so that’s what I’ll be working on this week. Not sure that I’ll...

...So let me tell you a spooky little story!
I posted this last Halloween, but I figured I'd post it again for my newer patrons (a Halloween tradition, if you will). This is a comic that I did some odd years ago. It's still one of my favorite creations (although I have a difficult time looking at some of the art now). I have a lot of ideas for theses characters but never managed to hammer out a concrete script that I was happy with. Perhaps I'll come up with some more s...

...Chapter 1 is finally finished!
This would not exist without you guys! I've been closing the office a couple hours early a couple times a week for the past few months so I could work on this. That cost me a lot and you guys took up the slack for me. Thank you so much!
Now comes the grueling editing process. There's a number of typos and panel issues that need to be corrected before I can even think about sending this off to print. I'll be doing that over t...

New page of Black Label goes up tomorrow!
...all sketched up. Working on the lines and will start toning tomorrow. Right on schedule for a Wednesday morning release. :)
Val seems...off her game. Wonder what’s got her distracted?
Another crazy weekend on the road for work. Glad to be back! Let’s get another page done, shall we? :)
The next page is already thumbnailed and ready for sketching. With my regular work schedule I figure it’ll be up and ready by Wednesday! So excited to see chapter 1 done!
I do have a couple bonus comics to draw and several panels I need to go back and correct (typos to fix as well). Once that’s done, I’ll be releasing the whole comic as a .pdf.
Not much else to report on f...

My busy weekend started early and I'm hitting the road again tomorrow. I'll be back Monday with a Weekly Update and hopefully some sketches for the next page of Black Label (Last page of the chapter!!!!)!
Have a great weekend!

...One more page!!!
So much awkward on one page. ^^
I'm not 100% sure about this page, specifically panel 2. I sketched it out in a number of different ways and this was the version with the most energy. Still not sure it's the right look though as I don't think Ellie would just shove her new friend into an uncomfortable situation (she knows she's not good in social situations). I like the look of the panel, but I may have to redo it in November.
November will be ...

Not entirely sure how I feel about this panel. It looks good but I’m not sure it fits the situation the way it should. I’ll have to ask you guys again when the page is done.
...Whew…what a weekend. I forgot how busy October gets work wise. This week will be no different. Fortunately, I’ll have plenty of time to get the next page done (Wednedsday?)!
The last two pages are all sketched out. In fact, the last page will be a full page, not a half page like originally planned. In other words, Chapter 1 will be done next week! Would like to have it done sooner, but my schedule will not permit it.
Been looking over the notes and outline for chapter 2 and I have...

...will have it done next week, along with the “final” page of the chapter. I have that in quotes because it’s technically a single panel bonus comic, but I think it sums up the characters perfectly and wraps the chapter up nicely. :)

...If I don’t draw every day or so I lose my edge (especially when it comes to digital). Finally feeling like I got my drawing hand back. Hoping to finish the line art for the next page before I leave for work. Fingers crossed!

Last two pages of Black Label are putting up a bit of a fight. I’ll get them though. :)
I’m finally home! Ugh, what a weekend…week. Wait, what?...
Was supposed to get home yesterday for a game of Call of Cthuhlu, but life...finds a way. Not complaining though, it would have been too much crazy for me after driving all day. Will likely pick up the game in early November. Still, I have some fun stuff planned. If anyone's interested in that sort of thing, comment below. Could make for an interesting thread.
First thing’s first; food and rest...

...Yay! I finished a page this week!
Tones need a bit of adjusting (kinda dark) but all in all a fun page!
As advertised, this week (hell, this month) is going to be crazy busy. Expect 1 page a week plus updates, but that'll be about it for the next week or so. I'll see if I can't manage a sketch or two along the way.
Thanks for your patience and support everyone! Next page will be up next week!
