below is a sneak peak at the greyscale water color
before I scanned it into Photoshop
Fellow UDON-oodle Jim Zub has a brand new action packed comic full of monsters, werewolves, mutant slugs bounty hunting and more!
Here's a pinup I created for him using red col erase pencil
to lightly sketch it out, a Pentel brush pen
to ink it, Pentel water colors for the greyscale and Photoshop CS4
with my Cintiq
for the colours and extra touchups. This was all sketched, inked, grey scaled in a Robert Bateman sketchbook.Jim asked me if I was interested in doing a pinup for Skullkickers. He sent me some preview issues to read through for reference and inspiration. This comic is so up my alley and so fun I started working on it the very same night. I'm a sucker for sarcastic fantasy action heroes slaying gnarley fang toothed baddies I guess!
This was extra enjoyable as I haven't used watercolours in over a decade!

This is so awesome. You gotta convey those same feelings over for your own stuff now. Prelude to Balto perhaps?
