Getting color

After I told myself, and told myself that I would not worry about the coloring... I took a day to see how much coloring I could actually get done.

I started with page 3 just working on the flesh tones of the 2 biggest figures. that took a while.

Then I went back to the begining and put in flat colors for all of the remaining pages and that went a LOT faster. Still quite a way to go.

It's the next best thing to painting right...

Finished inking.

Whew, that one fun, but a lot of work.
... don't think I'm going to try coloring this right now.
Maybe someday.
Next I'll have to put it all together and send it off,
then I'll hve to start somthing else...

Another Day...

...another page.

Last night I tightened up my pencils - almost enough - and inked the borders and most of the first panel.
Today: 7;00AM - 1:00 inking
1:00 - 4:00 - lettering, borders, clean up in illustrator, saving files.

I also managed to make breakfast for the family in the morning and help my daughter build a fort in her room in the afternoon.
Today was a good day.
