ACME Free Comic Book Day: print process

Here are the thumbnail sketches for the print that I mentioned last week for FCBD at Acme Comics.

Next, we have the really rough pencils.

the finished inks...

which would normally be where I'd call it quits, but it was decided early on to add a splash of color on this piece so...
Here are my first few stabs at colors, done with prismacolor markers, as I tried to figure out which bits to color red without it all bleeding together.

For the finished piece be sure to come on out to Acme Comics and pick yourself up a copy of the print!
Have a great weekend, folks.

ACME Free Comic Book Day

I'll be attending Free Comic Book Day at Acme Comics in Greensboro, NC on Saturday May 2nd (from 10-7 PM) and am now accepting a very limited number of pre-orders for sketches.   I will not be doing these sketches at the store, only on pre-order.

My sketch prices for 2009 are:

$50 for a single character in B&W on 9 x 12 bristol
$75 for two characters (on 1 page) in B&W on 9 x 12 bristol

All sketches will be personalized, no exceptions.  

If you know you will be attending Acme's FCBD and would like a sketch please drop me a line, my email address in my profile.  


Additionally, prints of the image above will be for sale at the store on FCBD.
