What a doozy this page was, took me FOREVER. The next page I’ll do will be a simpler one, haha. I redrew parts of this page over and over, I kept getting stuck and tripped up. Sometimes when I have a hard time on a particular panel or particular spot, I’ll just hem and haw over it for hours, redrawing the part again and again.
I’m also obsessed with tangents, which is when lines or shapes touch in a visually distracting way, such as when a shape gently touches another shape rather than fully intersecting it. It’s kinda hard to explain without a visual so here’s a pic I put together:
The top panel is how it is in the final page, and I moved the artwork up a bit to show what a tangent would be, the tip of Max’s gun and the top of Kyisha’s head butting up against the panel border. Looking at this panel up close again, I’m already seeing tangents I missed!! @_@ Sometimes they’re unavoidable when you have so many overlapping shapes and characters. HATE TANGENTS
Anyway here’s the page!!!
i think all the work was worth it because this page is badass as fuck!
This page came out magnificent! OMG! Tangents are the bane of my existence! They sneak up on me all the time! So frustrating!
