Margo Creating the Series - Part 4

continuing with color flats

Pages 1-3

THE SETUP: A giant hole in space is spewing out spores that travel the universe, seeking out planets to open portals for an invading force. The spores land near a hillside monk. Thinking it a sign from the gods, the monk instead finds himself surrounded by Invaders.

Continuing creating a new Margo Intergalactic Trash Collector 8-page story, I move through the coloring.

Continuing with Page 3…

I have created the layer with flat colors. This will become important for making quick selections as I add shadows and light.

Using the flats I can easily select the sky and on another layer begin to add depth.

By using the flats I am able to go into more depth as I add layers to the image.

Because I am working digitally, the final image may look different once I have gone through all 8 pages. I am sure there will be many adjustments along the way. I will be digging into them here in future posts.

If you are looking for more art and comic-related stuff, check out my weekly Kickstarter recommendations on FaceBook in the Indie Wire Group. I created this group for creators to post the projects they are trying to fund, and weekly I post current campaigns I am following.

Margo Intergalactic Trash Collector #2 is available on Global Comics.

After many months of moving, and dealing with bots, and a ton of glitches, the new website is up and running. Check out my store for print copies.

Keep Creating,
