Progress- Page colouring

ok, quick update.
Penciling for story 2 has paused the last few days while I try and work through two more major projects that have cropped up (stressed as all hell at the moment), but I have managed to colour a few pages between shifts at work.

Colouring (if you've read the experimental project posts) is not my strong point, but they are turning out ok considering I chose to bypass the inking stage. I felt that I would just ruin the look of the pencils if I screwed it up, plus to have to colour and letter this first story and then do it again to the second story I havent pencilled yet, plus my thesis, plus the other two projects, I wouldnt get any of it out... plus the pencils and colour make it look rough and dirty like the environment. (and the inking of the later pages including the soldier fight in the jungle would be a pain to have to ink- especially when I'm not confortable with it.)
Anyways, enough talk. gotta run

Quick Update

Just a quick one: Finished penciling for soldier story (about 22 pages), only have a couple of weeks in the schedule to hammer out part 2 which might be the same amount of pages...we'll see. Scanning pages in today, I will post a couple of pages up without wanting to give away too much.
I desperatley need to iron out my internship and formatting information for eventual printing.
More to come.

Animatic Draft: Teaser Trailer for "The Soldier"

Draft Animatic for the teaser trailer. Plan to do slight animation, something to concentrate on towards the completion of the Graphic Novel.

The Silver Surfer ep1 pt1

Jack Kirby/Joe Sinnot line style animated. You can also see elements of John Buscema's run with Stan Lee in The Silver Surfer's first solo series. (1968?). I remember this show as a kid, unfortunately I believe it only lasted 1 season. I haven't investigated it yet, Im wondering if it had something to do with Marvel's Bankruptcy issues around that time.
Ha, the Kree soldiers look like Captain Marvel's original design,

More pages and frames






Already had these completed a few weeks ago, but experimental assignment/presentation and the thesis have taken up the majority of my time. Hoping to kick start the comic again wednesday night. In the meantime, the teaser trailer has to be done...
