BBR Ch. 4 Pg. 3 - thumbnail
WHOOPS YEAH THIS IS A THUMBNAIL PAGE SOMETIMES I GO TOO HARD WITH THESE THINGSAt the very least there was practically no cleanup done with this one in the polished pencils page - the two look practically identical haha. I really liked the gesture of the final panel it didn't get changed at all
Hawaii Travelogue!
We wound up renting a car which was FINE EVERYTHING WAS FINE, I'M A GOOD DRIVER
BBR Ch. 4 Pg. 3 - thumbnail
I was especially excited to do this page for the small action between panels one and two of Cecilia killing the weed with her skeleton hand. It might have been too subtle? There was a lot of text on panel 2 so the figures had to be kept pretty small haha
Hey guess who just ate a huge piece of kale off the floor
Take a wild guess
Hawaii Travelogue!
DID YOU KNOW THAT HAWAII IS 6 HOURS BEHIND EASTERN STANDARD TIME??? (i had no idea)
BBR Ch. 4 Pg. 2 - pencils
Lighting was really integral on this page, so it was roughed in even from the thumbnail stage. (these are the pencils, but they used the same shading layer as from the thumbnails haha)As a visual artist I feel like I'm usually pretty good at hitting emotional cues- but for some reason it took me about 5 takes to hit Percy's expression and body language. I think I got it in the end.
Hawaii Travelogue!!
Ananth and I went to Hawaii for a week in October, and since I don't know how to not work I also have been doing some travelogues of our trip! I don't know when we'll wind up sharing or collecting them, but I'm going to start posting peeks of them here while I finish them!
BBR - Thumbnail
I'm always loath to share my thumbnails for stuff that hasn't come out yet, but I don't think this has any really significant spoilers.... I'll share more as things are being posted!My thumbnails these days (done in procreate on the ipad) have two stages - loose sketch (for staging) and tighter sketch (for expressions.) Then everything gets exported to my computer and pencils are refined further in photoshop.This is that first stage - the loose sketch thumbnail - mostly done to try and figure out the flow and placement of charac...
Chapter 4 Pg. 1 thumbnail
At some point in the process, the pencils for Page 1 wound up being mirrored and never flipped back, and for the life of me I don't remember if it was intentional or accidental? I think the page still reads fine!!! 💦
Chapter 4: Desktop wallpaper!
Here they are!! Ananth mentioned this online, but we based the girls' outfits on the Kpop band Red Velvet heehee
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
HAPPY (early) HALLOWEEN!!!!!! Did you guess Leeds' costume??? Is this reference too niche? 😂 (They're Eraserhead and Allmight from My Hero Academia— I couldn't help myself when I realized Percy and Eraserhead have the Actual Exact Same Haircuts)In drawing this I admittedly ... broke one of the "Leeds Character Design Cardinal Rules" - which is that he's not allowed to wear collared shirts. With his neck circumference, it's too goofy looking! I think the angle of his head hides it enough tho... and also this draw...
bbr: ch 4 cover sketch
I've started trying to do as much preliminary work as possible on the iPad (even though I don't think my sketches come out as nice because I'm hyper aware of an interface I'm not used to yet) - here's the sketch I did in procreate :D
Leeds Halloween sketch
I've been thinking of doing something for Halloween ... can you guess Leeds' costume? 😂
Chapter 4: Phone wallpaper!
I'm so relieved I made this image extra tall, otherwise I never would've been able to get all of Cerberus into the image! 💦I'll post a desktop version for y'all next week!
