It turns out I’m pencilling week 22 from scratch this week. So, here is my “pencils” for week 22 day 1.

I can’t quite pencil as cleanly digitally as I can on paper, but for me the whole advantage of going digital is that I can skip the clean pencil stage and do a lot of my drawing in “ink”.

I’ll post the inks for comparison when they are done.

As some of you might already know, I have been inking the Mighty Motor Sapiens for Rowdy dotCom for several months now. It started out being pencilled by Daniel Krall and then switched to Matt Plog with week 9.

Matt’s been sick, and with the holiday crunch I was asked to do the pencils as well from Matt’s layouts to help get us caught up. I’ve been inking the strip digitally since week 9, so I did the ‘pencils’ that way as well.

Here’s examples of two days of pencils with their accompanying inks.

Running a little late, I posted the pencils to this week’s Wahoo Morris before replacing it with the finished inks.

I know there are those interested in the process of creating a page of comic art. It’s rare that I scan my pencils, so for posterity here is the pencils for Wahoo Morris page 114.
