Page One Line Work

Here’s my work flow:

• Sketch with pencil

• Ink with fine liner

• scan

• Open in Procreate, fiddle with it, then export to Clip Studio Paint

• Ink

My original plan was to do everything with pen and ink and watercolor. But, there’s no way I can complete a 40 page book in 90 days without the aid of digital tools. I love pencils, paper, brushes, watercolor, but I’m simply too slow. I don’t want to spend a year on this book. Time is of the essence.

Here’s the basic line work for my first page. There’s no background for the time being. After I get all of the pages inked I’m going to paint them all at the same time.
