Ok so i havn't really done much comic drawing for quite some time so i am very rusty... here is a third of a page from a 15 page book im working on right now.


I know it looks like its the classic batman origin story but it really isn't and you will have to read the comic book to find out why.

I will update with more as i make them... this was a good easy one to get in the grove...

Awesome, Chris. Great job as always.

Lalo

Simply awesome... I cant wait to see it

Knight

starting to color it just to see how the comic will look.

Lalo

The coloring looks amazing so far! Great job... Keep these previews coming

Knight

meh its ok

Blip

Wow, Chris that's fantastic with color.
Can't wait to see more.

Knight

Thanks Chuck


here is my initial pencil sketch for those who care to see.(blurry cause i don't have scanner and used camera)

Lalo

man oh man... that is shuuweet!!!!

that coloring IS really good, especially the hair

Knight

thanks, I really have no experience doing comic coloring so i'm just winging it.

burningman

that's awesome chris!
I actually started coloring it before I scrolled down and saw yours...hope you don't mind.

Yours is wayyy beter than mine..this is just about 5 mins of messing around

Knight

you seriously made that before seeing mine!? you even put the blood in the same spot as on my colored one!

I really like what you did with the word box.. i think i will copy that and use some kind of gradiant.

Also i love the way you did the jacket of his dead father and the subtle lighting on Batman looks pretty cool!


edit: also i like how you changed background colors..so it kinda betrays a innocence in the first and it leaves him with a vengence in the batman days.

burningman

hehe actually i added the blood after seeing yours..but the rest was done before
Yeah i thought the color shift would indicate the inner rage.

Very cool I can't wait to read what you've done when it's finished!

What program are you "inking" this with?

Knight

Basically throw everything you know about batmans past in the garbage. The only thing that you'll recognize in this story is the personality of the characters. But their history and origin is all new.

I am using plural because the story revolves around Batman and Superman.

Blip

Great stuff from you both. :nice

Chris, now I'm even more excited about your new story line for the Bat.

burningman

Chris you ever read Arkym Asylum?
Great read and the art is amazing!

Great stuff there for a Batfan

Knight
