Colours for pages 2 & 3.



First coloured page. Tried to make this look like an old comic from the 80s, kind of 'Hellblazer: Original Sin'-style. I even sourced an old 80s colour palette. Might need redone though, should probably put the old paper filter in after lettering or it'll be a pretty obvious difference in tone.

Pages 2-5, again inked digitally in Manga studio. Still getting used to the software, but it definitely makes a few things easier by being able to use layers, unlike inking traditionally. Some details are easier to do by hand though. I'll need to find what balance of the two works for me. I still need to work on my backgrounds though, they aren't as strong as my characters.

Page 1 inks, done digitally in Manga Studio.
Pencils for pages 1-5. Some of these got looser and rougher once I decided I was going to ink digitally after using Manga Studio, as some of the harder shots or details can be played around with more when inking that way as opposed to traditionally. For example, the bar fight in page 4 was a tricky page to organise, and I forgot to go back to the rough before pencilling and had to part of the image to where it should really be.
