another fantastic art jamm week has come and gone, sadly.\u00a0 (quick recap, once a year, i take off from my day job to focus on just art and really settle into the lifestyle of an artist.)\u00a0 this year, as indicated below in my previous blog, i had a plan on what i’d like to accomplish.\u00a0 except, i decided to not go too hardcore and go at a bit more of a leisurely pace, fitting in reading comics and other night time activities.\u00a0 all in all, definitely a fantastic time.<\/p>\n

so, this year, i think i really built on two key skills – comic page layouts and details, details, details.\u00a0 since i was working on an 8-page comic book collaboration<\/a> this year, i had the opportunity to really dig deep into page layouts to tell a story (panel size, shape, perspective, etc.).\u00a0 also, the amount of sheer detail needed to give the overall effect. as i look through a comic now, i have that new found appreciation of what the artist did in teh background in order to make the character jump out so much more.<\/p>\n

something else i wanted to work on was a movie poster.\u00a0 i saw a movie poster for Drive done by Phil Noto<\/a> and was absolutely inspired.\u00a0 and i think he just did it for fun!\u00a0 i wonder how long it took him to do it but impressed i was.\u00a0 so, i took a stab at a poster for The Dark Knight Rises.\u00a0 i didn’t get very far though unfortunately, just a rough layout.<\/p>\n

but i think the most fun i had was working on perhaps a new webcomic.\u00a0 i’ll call it, Journey into the Inknown!\u00a0 (for now.)\u00a0 the beauty (or detriment) of it is that i have no script.\u00a0 i have no idea where the story is going (ala Skottie vs. Scotty<\/a>) and i’m just having a great time making it up as i go.\u00a0 done in only black and white, all i want to deliver is action in every panel!\u00a0 i’m not sure how i’m going to present it yet (one panel at a time, one page at a time, daily, weekly, monthly, on finncomics.com or at another website, etc.) so i’m afraid i won’t have any below.<\/p>\n

well, thanks for reading and below are some images for your perusal.<\/p>\n
