Panels 1 & 2 of Volcano Island issue 1 coloured. I’ve been studying some comic colouring techniques on youtube and putting them into practice here. . . . . #drawing #sciencefiction #art #scifi #artist #comicbookartist #comics #comicart #comicartist #illustration #illustrator #design #mustache #anime #animeart #manga #mangaartist #mangaart #sketch #ink #inking #bristol #bristolart (at Somerset) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrBJYY3hfPz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gfp3yeu71zrg

Some more panels I’ve gone and added more heavy blacks to. . . . #drawing #sciencefiction #art #comics #comicbookartist #drawing #inking #ink #design #illustration #illustrator #anime #manga #comicart #mangaart #animeart #artist #sketchbook #artwork (at Somerset) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqjvpA9hMXP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jclwh3bm4edj

It’s not a good idea to do this too much as I’d never finish anything but I’ve gone back and redrawn a panel I wasn’t happy with. Here are both views. I drew the old one about a year ago and at the time I thought it was great. Now can see lots of ways to improve it. I’m really happy with the new version and let’s hope I don’t feel like changing it next year! :) . . . . #drawing #sciencefiction #art #scifi #comics #comicbooks #comicartist #comicbookartist #illustration #illustrator #artist #design #woman #hoodie #gasmask #whitehair #anime #manga #mangaart #animeart #instaart #doodle #sketch #animation #dibujo #ipadpro (at Bristol, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqhcSvmBcEI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=iwarybkbfytv

Another bit of adding block shadows. Makes a bug difference ;) . . . #comics #comicart #comicbookartist #comicbookart #drawing #art #scifi #artist #mangaartist #animeartist #dibujo #design #illustration #illustrator #instaart #soldier #army #moustache #mustache #scotch #whiskey #whisky (at Bristol, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqfEGLBhVT1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1qn5243r44kh9

And those shadows added to this crazily coloured flats layer. That machine in the bg reminds me a droid from Star Wars. . . . #comicart #comics #comicbookartist #illustration #illustrator #design #art #artist #drawing #woman #mechanic #scifi #sciencefiction #starwars #droid #anime #manga #mangaart #instaart (at England) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqdA9Wzhdf5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11pn7di8njj7t

I’ve gone through a lot of Volcano Island pages and added shadows in. I was thinking at first to have the line of this comic more like 2d animation but I’ve decided to take advantage of those sweet black shadows you can have in comic artwork. I think these extra shadows and more variation in thick and thin lines really make these images pop! . . . #comics #comicart #illustration #comicbookart #comicbookartist #design #anime #animeart #science #woman #technology #mexhanic #manga #mangaart #drawing #artist #instaart #volcanoisland #art #arte #dibujo (at Bristol, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqca1vKB2DW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=d4srkutghrho

Pay full attention!

Bah! So annoying when gadgets don’t work. We’ve hired a flatter to add in all of the flat colours to volcano island so far so I’ve been posting some of these images. The colours are just placeholders and without any shadows but it’s great to take he next step with these pages. . . . #illustration #volcanoisland #indycomics #characterdesign #comicart #comicartist #gadgets #conceptart #design #ink #inking #digitalart #digitalartist #scifi #science #ipadpro #procreateartist #anime #mangaart #mangadrawing #drawing #sketch (at England) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoXKHuMBmj3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ja9w3jn0xvb1
