Gatillos

Well the next pages that hopefully will be coming during the following weeks are actually scripted, yes, like in a real comic! They describe our narrator's recollections from his childhood. I wanted to use a slightly different style for the 'childhood' era. I included the actual drawing process this time. Since I don't have my scanner here I didn't use the pencil draft, although I did create one. So process goes: I outlined the figure with straight lines, then smoothed them using Inkscape, then tweaked them, then continued tweaking and defining detail (while trying not to put too much detail in).

So yep, this is what I do on a weekend:

Actual main character is supposed to be the last white haired one, the black haired one is just me playing to see how tweaking distances in the figure can completely change the look of a character. My initial thought was that the child version of the main character should have a different hairstyle, because usually when you are a child it's your mom that decides how you look, but I think using the same hairstyle makes him easier to identify. I did want it to have distinct, more comic-like, eyes.

Tricky bit is now doing the same character in various positions...
