wychwolf part 2 page 16

A long weekend spent teaching Dom a range of different painting techniques so he can experiment for his GCSE.
I showed him drypoint etching using perspex and a needle, watercolour inks, pastel chalks, letratone…
Anyway, the it means I ran out of time for doing the strip, so I cheated and did just one page.
I wanted to have something more like the power-up screen in “Rainslick precipice ..”
Maybe later.
Oh and I had to submit an assignment, 3 .xsds, 3 .xml, 1 xslt and a report…
…
and walk the dog…

knackered..

Sketched during the Royal wedding, and inked with my trusty old Rotring 0.5 and 0.2 isographs.

I’ve installed photoshop elements on my powerbook now, as I prefer it to CS3, which is quite a discovery… the general view is that CS3 is better, but I just found it needlessly complex for the workflow I’ve got in place. I guess I could re-learn, but there seems little point.

It makes me wonder what other premium items would be worse… I’ve always fancied a bigger tablet or even a Wacom Cintiq, but it might be I’m more suited to the titchy bamboo… it’s certainly portable.

… and were back.

The day job I’ve had for the past six years ends on Friday, and it’s caused a lot of change in the way I lead my life. I’m very lucky to have a ten month contract with an excellent team of extremely talented and pleasant people to tide me over… but things won’t be the same.

Probably the biggest change for the comic is that I’ve got to learn how to work in Windows 7, as my macbook pro, wasn’t really mine,and has to go back to the firm I’m leaving.

So Windows 7 does things differently, I’ve not got any of the fonts I use, and need to make a visit to BLAMBOT to sort that out.

Photoshop elelments works differently…I’ve got to learn to deselect stuff and I’ve got to get used to the most random filesystem I’ve come across. On the positive side the drivers I just downloaded for my wacom seem to integrate the tablet really well at an OS level.

For the story hopefully things will be back to their old fashioned sepia by next Monday,once I’ve worked out where all the brushes I need are.

phew.

Artstuff staedltler pigment pens and copic grey markers in a my sketchbook… sadly the paper is far too absorbent, and the ink bleed was extensive. I won’t do that again. Next week I’ll use some decent paper.

Soundtrack: Whitestripes De Stijl

Page 23 of the Wych wolf story, see transcript for full description

I’ve been on holiday, and started a new job… it feels strange that I can have squeezed so much into such short a time.

Anyway, this page was sketched on Crooklets beach in Bude.

Pens might return for next week.

Art stuff.. B pencil in a Daler Sketchbook

Soundtrack, The blind boys from Alabama, and the sound of surf, and lifeguards…

“Will surfers and bodyboarders please stay between the red and yellow flags”

When in doubt, add a bit of action. Over at the ten ton studio, this weeks sketch challenge is the defenders… a superhero team which includes the Hulk, so I read a Hulk story, and basically it was 30 pages of stuff being shot, and smashed up… which is considerably easier to write than dialogue.

Normal service may be resumed next week.

Drawing stuff: Staedtler 0.5mm pigment pen, and COPIC markers on light weight watercolour paper.

Soundtrack: the click click of knitting, the dull sound of foopballists on the telly.

there’s something behind you

wych wolf page22 see transcript for detail

If you read the script Adam is compiling over at http://www.wychwolf.co.uk you’ll see that what was originally planned here was a bit of dull conversation, and some bumbling around an airfield.. maybe the view of an office, perhaps a few interesting moustaches. I decided we needed to ramp the action back up again… and so thought it might be nice to have something follow Eric through the woods.

Art stuff: all done on the mac this week, Photoshop elements.

Soundtrack: My wife practicing her violin.. this doesn’t sound too bad until you realise that she hasn’t played in about 16 years.

Something nasty in the cellar

I’ve been putting in some detail to the next part of the story… and whilst Adam has been obliged to change some of the Novel to match ideas in the plot synopsis… I’m changing some bits to reflect ideas he’s had…I’d like to change the next few pages, but what’s done is done. It’s in the queue.

Anyway, this fella here is a direct result of one of Adam’s ideas.. you can read his novelisation over at http://www.wychwolf.co.uk

It's a Zombie, werewolf, dressed as a Mummy... what a combination

very poor treatment from the rural hospital
