Comic rough on lousy paper. Onward to the good paper!

Thinking about ink, and owls. I’m working on a story that was going to be a picture book, but a mini comic might be a better idea. Slow progress is still progress, right?

I’m trying some different things with ink. If I could do this sort of thing in a comic I’d be really happy.

I’m experimenting with new workflows. This comic was a mix of traditional and digital methods.

I inked Robot Fixes the Engine in a traditional manner, using ink on bristol paper. I like my brushes and paper, what can I say. Then it was scanned, and cleaned up in Affinity Photo. Afterwards it was imported into Procreate on my iPad to have colour applied.

Once coloured, the file was exported as a PSD file, and finished in Affinity Photo.

Have a cuppa cake! Read the full comic.

Nice night for a stroll.

Two headed beast! Can’t we all get along?

Bring, bring!

Runnin’.

Bang, bang.
