Our New Duck and Cover Comic hits the printers

And if I say so myself, it’s good. 916 cups of coffee, four arguments, and one case of repetitive strain injury has all resulted in the second issue of our Comics collaboration Duck and Cover. Which is mostly a post apocalyptic comedy concerning mutant animals, but also looks at the human being and how silly we are. Or in this case, were.

And so after the frankly painful process of making it we’re printing the thing and launching it at the festival of comics and animation in Tel Aviv next week- so if you’re over here, come and say hi. We’ll be there, hanging out and I’m planning to do some live digital painting.

We’ve ramped up the process somewhat as three of us have worked on this, so I thought it might be interesting for you to see how three people work together to make it. But first, here’s a few preview pages. Characters are by the annoyingly talented Mysh, Layouts Oren Mashkovski, BG’s me, colors, all of us. Boarding and thumbs: all of us.

Oh, and there’s no speech bubbles- Didn’t want to give anything away just yet….

Duck and Cover comic art

I’m frantically wrapping up some boards for work before leaving for Italy tomorrow. Although the way things are going I’ll be doing boards in a hotel room in Rome tomorrow night. Which (if only for one evening), sounds kinda romantico. So before I leave I’m putting up some new Duck and Cover art, which is going into a pitch bible for the project.

I’m looking forward to Florence and I’m ready to cram my sketchbook with new work.  I’ll post as I go.

Adios,

Death from above, page 2

4a

Page two gets ink and colour. I’m still finding my feet with technique, and how I want colours and strokes to work with this particular project.  We’ll see how I end up! 4 more to go.
