Another late Sunday post due to my usual laziness, but it’s here all the same.
So part of my holdup on this page was actually the top three panels. I spent a good bit of time trying to get the foreshortening and perspective to look good (and it still ended up looking like crap…). Anyways I feel like I’m starting to focus in on how I want to ink some of the shadows a little more. Apart from the previously mentioned poor, starter panels on this page, I think the rest of the panels have a lot more controlled and subtle use of the ink shadowing, and I think that’s what I want to shoot for in the future.
Speaking of honing in on style, I kinda got frustrated with characters’ eyes on this page. For doing a comic for over 150 pages, you’d think I’d know how I like to draw eyes, but no, I don’t. Looking back over the many years and MitM pages, I’ve actually made several changes in direction with how I draw eyes. I’m still not sure if I’ve found exactly how I want to depict them. This page I tried making the pupil more into a fully completed oval.
I also just now noticed that I totally forgot to do this with Levi in the third panel…
Whoops >.<
