This is only funny if you know that I often rock the Joe Namath/Hulk Hogan mustache. I realize now that it doesn't have "send" or "menu" buttons or anything but maybe you just push on different corners of the mustache. Yeah.

The Fastest Man Alive!

I drew this this afternoon and originally inked it with brush but it didn't look very good when I scanned it in so I ended up re-inking it completely in Illustrator. Right now I like it, but maybe I won't tomorrow when I look at it again. I really like how smooth and clean it is, which is a style that I think well on the Flash. I'm getting a lot faster inking on the computer, almost to the point where it would be a feasible way to ink a book. The coloring is flatter than I'd like, but it's been years since I took my computer coloring course so it's about all I can do anymore.



And the uncolored inked version.

Some flash

Here are a couple of pages a little out of the ordinary for me. Normally, I like my panels in something close to a gird, no overlapping no flashy stuff like shattered glass panels (sorry, early 90's) but for these two pages I did something a little different.

On page 8, I broke a panel border for the first time, maybe ever. It wasn't planned, it was actually a mistake. When I drew the panel, I drew it with too little room for the coffee splash so it would've been cut off by the border. By breaking the border there I think it really makes the coffee pop out.



Here on page 9, I wanted to something different than just drawing the guy get hit by the chair. I really hope it comes through that he's getting hit, I think I found a creative way to show it.
