I have decided to enter something completely different in to the beauty and beast comic still using my concept of a roger rabbit cool world universe. its 4 pages based on a short American folktale from Virginia in tiled Why Dogs Chase Cats.
I already have inked in page using very fine pens to create a better sense of depth.
A tonal rough on Photoshop with tablet using BaW versions of Juan Diaz Oanales and Juanjo Guarnido’s Blacksad as a source of inspiration for values and contrast.
I have a manuscript for this as well but I would like some critical feedback from the first years or any other ink soupers. It’s still quite rough around edges with the drawing in terms of perspective more on the objects in the middle panel.
Comparison of my tonal value test to BlackSads book 1 that had some really interesting striking use of light in domestic settings.
