Level Up!

Another new year coming, so I just wanted to give my best wishes to everyone involved in New Concept Comics and to all the visitors worldwide!
Let's finish this 2011 with a little overview of the things done since my last post, including: storyboards, test pages, color tests, and a large etc, for screen writers and comic book writers.
This also includes a new project I'm working on, I won't say anything about it yet, but it has to do with my previous post.
Thanks everyone, enjoy the holydays and see you soon!

New pages of Tiny Life: left

New sketches for Tiny Life

These are the new versions of the characters for the next book of Tiny Life. They're younger, and a bit more realistic in some aspects.

The full body views were the firsts attempts, then the faces are the more defined versions.

I've been dividing the new script in pages lately and I think I'll be starting with story boards for the pages pretty soon.

Teamwork

I've been working hand-to-hand with the CableNube's members in order to create a 2-pages test for an editor these last days .

We made the short script and the layouts, then the sketches, the rendering and the inks.

Once all was done, we add to it some edition with Photoshop.

It took about 22 hours of work, and this was a great experience to work as a team.

6-pages short story

I've been also writing a short story just for fun, and it's also useful to extend my gallery with new material. I'll try to work these pages with a new style, we'll see what happens.

It's possible that I'll try to get it published later, maybe at some anthology.

These are the little storyboards that I make once I have the script done. Their only purpose is to serve as a reference for the main sketches in the final page.

I'll try to upload here every finished page as soon as I have them ready.

What I've been doing these days

I've been working recently in the last pencilled pages of Tiny Life's issue 5. Once the first five issues are completely inked, toned and lettered by the creator of the series and president of Sliver ltd. Nick Jones, to final product will be submitted to a publisher.

Here's the official site of Tiny Life.

Comic book script: Story boards

Here's a quick show of the first rough story boards for 'The Messenger #1'.
As you can see, the level of detail is minimum and for now it just has the utility of being a reference for the later sketches. These story boards give me a clearer view of the script, and also give me the chance to apply changes if something could be better represented.
Soon I'll be up loading more story boards and a few characters sketches.
As 'The Messenger' is being developed by Rodrigo Mavica and me under 'The EX3 Project' please also take a look into the group's blog.
