Swampy pt. 2

Almost there....need some bigger black parts, esp. behind the birds.
They're imaginary birds so they don't really look like anything, though in the next piece I want to make a page full of White Ibises, I found out they like swamps, they are SO AWESOME.

There may be a color version of this in the future but right now I'm working on just getting a bunch of stuff inked for the residency. Eeep!

Swampy

I am making a series of drawings for a comic book residency, here is the first one, it's not finished yet but I wanted to preserve this stage/show it off because I am pretty excited about it. The brush pen was drying out and the paper is a nice soft texture with a heavier weight so I got some cool brushy things happening. I basically picked a bunch of stuff I wanted to draw and put it all together for fun. I had an idea for a story but I'm a crappy writer so I thought this would help me get past the dread of not being witty or cool enough to make it in the first place.
Also my friend Suzan told me about this embroidery thing, Hoopla, it looks pretty cool and it's FREE to enter/no limit on submissions. Get stitching everyone!
