End of Month: August
As briefly mentioned in my previous post earlier today, I got a little busy this month, so my monthly End of Month update has run rather late!
I only have one image for August, but it was a complicated piece and something I've never tried before. I wanted to try my hand at making a fake comic book page. I've made several fake comic book covers in the past, so I wanted to see if I could do a full page to gauge my interest in creating comic book art.
Click on the image to see a larger version! It's yet some more Babylon 5 fan art. It depicts scenes that quite possibly happened behind the scenes in the show.
I had a lot of fun with it, but comics involve a lot of detail and characters, so this may not be something I do often (unless, of course, I win the lottery and can retire to self publish my own comic books!).
In other news
I've finished 20 of the 21 illustrations!
My counter should reflect that, but no matter how many times I refresh, it keeps showing the outdated one.
Once I finish the illustrations, I will need to figure out how to get them from my sketchbook to my computer. I don't have a scanner, so I am going to try using my tripod, camera (the same one I use to take pictures of my sketches before I digitally color them), and a hell of a lot of daylight. I'd rather test that to see if it works before spending money on having a copy shop scan them for me or purchasing my own scanner.
