Around Davis; inspired by a lunchtime sat reading paul madonna's incredible work, and also by my visit to the cartoon art museum in san francisco last weeked, i decided to continue my attempts at monochrome but also add a few words i've been thinking, and yes i even used a ruler for the frame (heresy!). I must admit though, i did at first attempt the ink wash, but got scared/frustrated and sank back into using watercolours, payne's grey. I will give the ink was another go, because i love its effects, i just have to learn how.
all over pepsi max...

Roshan (23.9.07 05:58) See, this is fantastic!! Do you see what I mean about how this would work for a comic book? And if you manage to get comfortable with the ink wash it will be even better!!! |

Roshan (25.9.07 06:36) Make sure you do! Back when we were at Barnet (many moons ago) I got in touch with this guy, a small press comic book artist, who used to do something similar. He sent me a kind of sample book of his work. I'll try to dig it out and if I still have it I'll send it to you to take a look at. It's very likely I lost it somewhere over the years though... |

petescully / Website (26.9.07 05:46) nice one. i keep meaning to send you one of those little comics i got in berkeley. you'd have to visit this comic shop in berkeley by the way, it's great. well, it's pretty good. alright, i don't really know my comic shops. but i think it's better than tropicana. |
