The Dregs #64

Hands. God, I hate drawing hands. Thank God, however, for technology. Just create the same position you want, take a picture with your IWhatever, and draw it. Pretty friggin' awesome. AND it makes me not afraid to draw them anymore, lets me practice drawing them, and keeps me from making every character stand and/or gesture with fists. I do draw a sweet fist, though. And I do love Peg's face in panel 6. The cigarette falling out of her mouth makes me laugh. Like a buddy of mine who wears a monocle (no kidding). When he get's surprised, it falls out of his eye, and it's funny every single time.

Cheers.

The Dregs #63

First of all, I'm happy because I was proactive enough to draw another episode the week I drew the last one. But this was an old script that I found as I was going through an old sketch book. I couldn't believe I never used it, but better late than never, right?

On a technical note, I am really happy with the way things are looking. Hands, angles, line work, etc. The only thing that I think is a little tough is the flow - going from left to right and then down to the middle row and not top then middle then right. But I don't think it'll be all that difficult to figure out. I just want it to be seamless. It's a comic strip and not meant to be difficult to read, so I hope it doesn't come off as that.

Cheers!

The Dregs #62

I can't believe we've made it this far! #62. Anyway, I totally stole the "you're a cab" line from my buddy, fellow bartender, and bicycle gang member (Nick) and I've been waiting a while to use it. So, yay to that.

It took me forever to do Sal's hands, but I'm really glad with the way they turned out. 

That's about it this time. Cheers.
