Ink + textures + photoshop =

Just a little comic I was playing with for a couple of days, concerning yo-yo boy and his day to day life.
Ink and photoshop as described!


What does yo-yo boy say today?
"hmm" he says, aha 


























I first composed the line work and grids using a fountain pen free hand, and used photoshop to fill the gaps here and there and apply textures when necessary.

Just love experimenting with all of these colours and powerful explosive textures, smoke and photographs of wall paper textures.

It holds this feel of Traditional vs Digital art techniques. The traditional input provides this added influence of feel and depth. The image is rustic and worked into, pushed by the hands of the artist. The digital is a sly clean cut involvement in generating an appealing image to the masses. A ideology of alternative and synthetic ideas compressed into a mass, dense ball of texture and clarity. Sly inter-laced movements of digital texture weaving itself into an image.

I am pretty happy of this result, though it is very complicated and detailed image, the comic is interesting to gaze within, looking at the small details and textures which are used to compose the overall story.
