I'd hold fire on judging the new inking on the strength of that splash. It looks nice for sure, but it's likely that both Charlie and the inker (whose name escapes me) will be putting more effort into double page splashes than panel pages.

 

Looking forward to 115 and beyond, anyway!

 

Not sure if it's the same interview (I haven't followed the link), but Kirkman said that Holly is going to be a significant player in the coming arc, and to look out for Heath too...

[Balham's Finest]

If ya'll were going to get sigs on Hero Initiative that's still blank on the back would you get them on the cover or on the blank back? I'm thinking about getting a bunch of celeb sigs on it from the show.

 

Definitely the back.

Just bought my first piece of OA...thought I would share.

That's what I was thinking. I'm going to get every cast member I can find to sign it along with Kirkman and Adlard.

That's what I am doing on 109's and 100 red foils.

[bffnut]

Jeez, the red foils are expensive enough already! That will be a crazy book when it is done. Are you going to have Charlie do a head sketch on it, too?

[ThoseBackPages]

welcome to the club Mathew!

 

LOVE IT!

[bffnut]

In comparison to a page I like, I can understand other's complaints about the drop in quality of Charlie's art. There is a lot of fine line work and detail on this page, whereas now he uses much more broader strokes.

[ThoseBackPages]

are we going to start this up again?

Interior page from WD 115. Did the new inker do better? Thoughts?

 

Wow...he sure as did!!! I'm impressed.

+1 Agreed. Those lines are really sharp. I am just looking at my 1 WD OA page and can notice a huge difference.

Question about approaching artists at Artists Alley

 

is there protocol that should be followed when asking artists if they're interested in doing a commission of a character they do not draw?

No, just sigs.

I think you worded it perfectly. Are you taking commission? Would you be interested in?

[ThoseBackPages]

Thanks Jeff, i try

Thanks Jeff, i try

 

I can see it now..."Mr. McFarlane, can you draw an Andrea from Walking Dead with lots of freckles on her face? "

 

Jim

[Colicab]

Or Emma ! Speaking of that my zombie Emma from Mike Norton doesn't have freckles! Dang it.
