Man launching! (Step by step Vid)
That's the panel where the fight action starts for real, and I loved drawing this one, hehe! You can see how I was seeking for the right position, early at the storyboard stage it was kinda the same. I was very eager to create the fight scene, but also terrified!

A double training for me with this illustration. First the asian boy, I still feel it's so hard to get properly the asian physique, and I didn't draw one for a long time. You'll get soon why I need to practice more.
Second, the solid black shading: I still want to master this rendering...

The black & white version feels always more readable to me, maybe cause I'm not performing the colors myself. I still see the lack of special fx like the lights from the weapon, but I read them. Well, cause I'm the author, I guess, LOL!
Even if I worked hard on the poses & the bodies there, I love how t...

Let me surprise you with this old commission, I totally forgot about & it gave me the WOW effect when it came across my search in the vault!
This vision of an ultra hairy Beast & over muscled was such a change from my usual rendering, hehe! Hope you like it! ;-)

This one started as a quick sketch, you can see the line art a bit nervous, then I wanted to add *quick* shading & finally I over worked the illustration, so it looks like a finished piece, haha! I really enjoy practicing the shading with digital graphite.

A video process of this fanart, especially on the inking. I struggled with the background, the perspective was off to me, so I had to ask someone to re insure me!
You can also see I started the shading briefly & stopped to ...

A very detailed vid of the process here: you see the panel drawn at the storyboard stage, then becoming the sketch & all the rest. You also get the struggle with the head expression, eyes, at some point.
I wanted to give all the high level of tension suddenly happening between them.

Let's cheer us all up as it's Hump day! And I worked my ass off on this one to get THE black shading I tried to work on the previous artworks. Although a part of me likes it, I'm still not there with it. I guess I need to watch more of the tutorial vids from senior artists, it's a demanding technic & I'd ...

Tit play, anyone? :-P
Another take with the *simple* shadows as color, matching a colored background. What I like in this type of rendering is delivering the white as a real color, not just the original blank sheet of paper (aka blank file as it's digital ^^).
Truth is I started with blac...

Without the colors & special fx, there's only flesh fighting! The sweat is also more visible, just like the blood: thick & black. As before, the work in progress force field here can't be used as a final black & white version, it should be reworked.
About the rendering itself, I like how raw & violent it...

An oldie that didn't age well to my taste for this throw back thursday. A fanart of a pronstar with some amazing ASSets! The inking was traditional, like the sketch, all scanned before digital colors.
You clearly see the gap with what I produce now, but it's interesting to look back. Still, if I rememb...

Lots of action again & I enjoyed performing the storyboard: you get that messy, dynamic vibe that suits the overall action. Although I just love the final result, it looks too polished for some nasty bloody fight for your life! XD

This one took time, although it should have been an all inked illustration, I was carried away with a colored background & then... well I got free & tested out stuff with the colors, the shadows & especially the lights. They figure out as drops of sweat, or some weird texture.
Anyway I like the result, I hop...

A video process of their last... intimate & *sweet* interaction in page 17, right before fighting each other. I really like how it is intense here, although when storyboarding this panel, I was afraid of having something too simple here. But the way they look, the position of the hand, work it all out!

The process for this fanart goes only trough graphite & it was first a delicate work, then enhance the *big* volumes, hehe, plus the veins.

The sketchy storyboard seemed clear, but it was not that clear when I had the finished art before sending for colors. It's such a tricky page with new ways & stuff, as I said: the fight scene is harder to get, all the more I didn't create much before.
Still I need to learn fast: it's not gonna be the ...

As shown in the last image, I was going to train my cross-hatching, after watching new vids of comic masters, and the first try-outs were not convincing: I really need to merge my cross-hatching now (you witness on the NIMO comic) & these possible evolution.

Especially in this page, you see how this *noire* version is a work in progress: the force field building only with thick lines, on the silhouettes mainly, isn't working. If I wanted to get a readable black & white version, I should rethink the rendering of some parts. The page is think as a stage to pass on the ...
