Tried something new (so old for me, it's new anyway - this was a technique I did during Men+Monsters), and discovered that 'perfect lines' are not always perfect for the drawing you're doing :)

Verus really saw Jet's face and pecs through the window of the atelier and said 'I'd like to stare at him forever' lol

I found these two pages after having misplaced them for like a year. It's probably going in Skyset Knights 3 or maybe 4, since it doesn't fit the erotic or narrative theme of Sphinx, and because it...

Lots of Arka for your mid-week :) Zoom in to see more details!
I'm about a third through dialogue and rough sketches for the entirety of Sphinx, so I'll have more to show of that book soon :)...

I'm convinced that Verus' wardrobe only consists of mage robes and formalwear. lol.
Arka's second outfit here is for a battle class with his sword Skyrend in katana form :)

I'm thinking of sketching the whole book (1 - 91), inking it, and doing the coloring in batches. I've never done a book quite this way before, but I think I can preserve the quality and get it done...

This is how most of the pages look half the time. It's either a sketch, inked and halfway colored like this, or completely finished. lol

I think after page 6 I'll go back to this section (1-6) and render the backgrounds. I'm trying a new method to finish the books faster :)
