NAICE TRY- Chapter 1: Daydream

SOOOOOOOOO! I've been waiting to update my blog as soon as I had this finished so here it is FINALLY! It really was a battle it's done.
I will translate it to Portuguese when I have the time (it was actually written in portuguese).
There are always things that I wish I did better but if I kept fixing things I would never get this published.
Thank you! ;) I hope you enjoy it and if possible leave some feedback.
Cheers! ;)

 

Naice Inking

Hey, haven't updated the blog for some time because I'm still working in the comic.

Now the inking is finally finished :D I'm very happy, didn't think I would finish it in one week. Now I understand that the inking doesn't need so much "creative thinking", I mean there are parts in which you have to get the shades correctly and think about the balance of white and black and composition but for me it was mainly a mechanical process- only needs coffee to work XD

Now as I said before I'm going to start coloring (very excited to do it) but I will not use opacity because I don't want to ruin the lines. I've seen some comics that have such a great linework and then some other artist applies the colors and that absolutely kills the freshness of the lines because everything looks too smudgy.
I don't want to do that. That's why I will only use full opacity (unless I don't do it XD)

As to the covers and promotional illustrations, I will use my regular illustration style :)

        

 

Now I don't know how long it will take me to color all of this because it's the first time I do a comic with so many pages, but my goal is to finish it in a max o 2 weeks or less. If it's not possible I'll have to work to make it happen (impossiburu? nonsensu!).



Cheers guys and see you soon ;)

Scenes

Hey there again! I wish I had more time but for now, the comic is going a bit slow. I still have to work a lot on my time management which is hard when I have to get up at 4am to go to work.

I'm really desperate to leave this place because seriously, my workspace be like:

 Me cannot mooooove...

Oh well, we have to value what we have right, at least the computer is brand new and kicks ass!

But enough of complaining, the new year is knocking on the door and I will finally be able to live in a place where I can work properly.

The characters are all complete and now I'm developing the scenes for the comic:

 

Battle scene and armor sketches

Movement and horse studies

Pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7

I still have a long way to go and it's going slow but I'll do what I can one step at a time.
Cheers for everyone and great begginings for the upcoming year!
