My Page 5 of Cycle of Violence...(this is the 'dark' version, the other has far less blood and less shadow - I'll post it if anyone wants to see that version)

Really enjoying the pages, Opipop.

You may have mentioned it before, but what program are you creating these in?

[Bubba Zebill]

Pleased to read you are enjoying it Dunk, one last page coming tonight, or early tomorrow.

I work with Photoshop only, at least with this series. I've tried others, but PS is, at least for me, the most like painting on paper or canvas. And as Adrian Bamforth pointed out I'm using a base texture, some scanned wine stains or something, to give a tooth to the whole thing.

Thanks for the pointers Adrian I hadn't thought of panels within panels as you described, wish I had.

If anyone has any thoughts, suggestions, tips, I'd like to hear them ...all criticisms welcome, please don't hold back. This isn't my field, it's yours!

That is your best page so fa, it is bursting with movement and energy.

[Bubba Zebill]

Well that's that for now. Thanks for the comments, I'd welcome anything anyone has to say on the set. I'll be uploading a PDF somewhere soon that shows the work in a slightly better light. In reducing the files to fit on the forum I had to drop the quality substantially to bring down the filesize, when the PDF is posted I'll link here for anyone who wants to see the details and optimum colours. Thanks again for the comments so far.

[Banners]

I think the colouring is stunning - absolutely wonderful!

[Bolt-01]

Those alterations you've made to page 6 are well worth it. really nice to see them

[Bubba Zebill]

And those changes were thanks to you!...if you are who I think you are...and who else could you be?

[TordelBack]

That's a brilliant page - one of the very best versions of that page that I've seen.

Here's that PDF in magazine format with the script alongside the illustrated pages.

Finally!

I've literally just finished the inks on my Sorrowhill submission. It's been a fucking long time coming. I started inking back in May and between other projects and real work I'm finally done.  For some unkown reason these pages have been a real labour. I might post some of the failed attempts later, for some reason I thought I'd try a completly new technique, one i made up and looked shit.

so here are my inked pages, the pencils are way back on page 20 of this thread.











Now just have to wait till payday to buy some ink and send these bad boys off to Tharg, then it's fame and fortune right?

seriously though, any comments, critiques and praise are more than welcome.

It looks pretty good to me. And page 4 panel 3 is... disturbing.

[CrazyFoxMachine]

Very sturdy - although the seventh (?) panel on page 5 - the one that comprises the second row - could do with some fine tuning-on the expression and proportions mainly.

The first page looks particularly good - you can see the months that have gone into this - !

[Pauul]

Looks even better inked.

Good luck with the submission, I hope it leads to bigger and better things.
