Well I took my personal challenge from last page seriously. This page is FIVE panels tall! :O
If you haven’t noticed yet, since page 140 I’ve been testing the waters with some silly comic panel teases that get posted to the social media sites (Facebook & Twitter). Go check ’em out if you don’t follow MitM on social media as much.
Hey, question for all you guys. Should I only shade with ink the characters? not the backgrounds?
For a good comparison look at all my recent pages from this chapter. The only heavy inking is only on the main characters. Background elements (including background, crowd characters) are only simple outlines with some pencil shading. They don’t have the dark inking. However, if you look through some of last chapter (when I was originally testing the waters with this style) I shaded some background elements. Both Pages 117 and 119 shade both backgrounds and background characters.
Do you have a preference?
