Progress Pics for the big awesome panel from this week's TLH (Patreon)
Content
This panel was really tricky for me to draw. I did like three rough drafts just to get the angle and placement of everything looking good. I hope I succeeded. It looks swell to me, at least!
My usual process starts with thumbnailing, then a rough sketch (though the one at the top is a little fleshed out.) Then I draw out the rest of the pencils til I got em looking good.
Then I ink the outlines and erase the pencils, leaving those very thin looking outlines behind. The pencils were done with the same width of pen that I do the bigger outlines with, but I've learned to do those after I erase, as some of the ink can become pale-looking after I've erased the pencils underneath! And that's what the next pic is, the second set of outlines I do to make it look real nice.
And lastly, I add in a bunch of blacks and hatching, and the thing is done.
