triceragation update

darn.  with this line work i am thinking i just want to do the simple digital colors with a single sharp shadow. 

demon quest update

like Bald space monkeys, this comic will just be in my normal style.  no experimental processes to try out with this 

philophana update

that pass of refinement is done. now for the next pass of polish

orca sploosh update

basic shadows added

nope this first attempt did not work.  i am way too rusty with pencils.  the idea is to have really nice pencil rendering then use flat digital colors on the final product.

orca sploosh update

i thought about turning these into traditional illustrations, but i had so much put into them that  i figured it'd be too much re-working.  so i am cleaning up the base colors before putt...
