Here we go to Heroes

Here's how the print turned out.

12.5" x 17" 4-color screen-print on 100lb cover-stock

The colors are very different than the digital mock-up, partly because of last minute decisions I made as I mixed the ink, and partly because of how they dried and reacted with the paper.

You can grab a copy of the print at Heroes Con this weekend at my table or The Center for Cartoon Studies table.

Here's some sketches that I did before I started on the final image for the print.

Drawn with markers

Sometimes I do a ton of sketches and color tests, and other times, this time, I felt like I knew what I wanted right away. I feel like the final image doesn't have the same life that some of the sketches have, but I think it turned out okay.

Also, for those who care, I dumped a bunch of photos on my flickr tonight.

From my time at the Maine Comic Arts Festival:

Me and Becca's took a weekend trip to Portland and Portsmouth:
