A couple of illustrations I did for FUTURE SHOCK, an upcoming tabletop RPG and comic limited series.
an early 3 page story called LOST TIME, based on a dialogue written by my friend Eric Gray. The manuscript he sent me had no panel or character descriptions, so I did everything from top to bottom: character designs, panel layouts, pencils, inks, colors, text, editing, special effects, etc. The only stage direction Eric gave me was on the last page.
I am primarily a comic book colorist and designer, but I am capable of pretty much every step of comic book production.
My original inks for LOST TIME, drawn on 11" x 17" bristol board with Pigma Microns and some random distressed brush pens. The majority of my work is digital but I came up using old school methods.
My original pencils for LOST TIME, drawn on 11" x 17" bristol board. The majority of my work these days is digital, but I grew up using analog methods.
