Ok, these are my prelim thumbnails. I keep averaging out at about 7 panels each.

So, I'll listen to what anyone has to say here and basically start to do this on the bristol boards I got. Some old blue-line pro boards I never got around to using. I'm realy rusty but it's nice to get back to drawing.

So I can either go Frank Miller on this motherfucker, or try to go Will Eisner, which one fellas?

Allen, where am I sending this?

I'll be at your mom's house.





Oh, wait. We're being nice now? necrotechno at earthlink dot com will work.

My mom smelled you coming and decided to move to a 3rd world country and become a missionary.

Ok, in all seriousness, good to have an e-mail to send this too.

Hey you're in GA and I'm in FL, what's a prominent tree near a large body of water in our region?

Cypress isn't it? For drawing purposes I ask.

I can tell you're lying. Missionary is the last thing your mom would do.


I'm in SC. Yes, Cypress is a tree commonly found growing in the swamps here. The first Swamp Thing movie was filmed here, and is filled with beautiful shots of Cypress trees.

ok, might have to take a couple days off from this to focus on some other stuff. But here's my progress so far.

Here's panel 1:


Panels 3 and 4:


I was trying to do at least 2 panels a day, but we'll see what happens. Got a big exam coming up.

Hunter, do you measure your panels?

Panel Three seems so different than it is on your rough layout. I was just having trouble seeing how Allen was supposed to ink them. Were you going to assemble them all in photoshop before passing them on? Or do you give the inker free reign to play with the layout?

Whatever he throws at me, I've got it covered.

I was just curious. It's interesting to so how different everyone's process is.
