Here we are. I have finished the two pages for the process posts. As a reminder I am doing all of the Red Plains inks using Manga Studio and this old Wacom tablet:
Rather than go into a huge pre-explination, I’ll just get to the pages…. Come, away to the pages!!

Page 14: I hate to admit it but, I have a hatred for this page. It is all my own doing, I tried to take a shortcut or two that just complicated matters and consistently second guessed myself.

This is just a little peek into how I work on this and what’s coming up. Not sure when all of this is being posted. Lot’s going on and I have not been the best at keeping with deadlines (Sorry Caryn!!) but keep an eye on topshelf2.0
