Description "The Sweetest Thing" is written and © 2008 ~Cher2a . Art is © 2008 *daggerpoint . Created for ~orangutancomics for the Eleventh Hour Vol. 1™ Graphic Novel.

I have been given the privilege by ~Cher2a to use my humble skills to bring to life her short story "The Sweetest Thing" for the Eleventh Hour™ graphic novel, published by Orang Utan Comics Studio . I was told it will be available for purchase at your local comic book shop this June, so I waited till now to post the pages.

I was only supposed to do pencil line work, but decided to digitally ink and gray tone it myself as well. Also, first time I 'colored' a digital piece in grays.

Beautifully done. I don't know how you do it, but you seem to outdo yourself a little every time you do a pic.

She looks gorgeous. Gray tone coloring...something I've always wanted to wrap my mind around.

Its actually easier than you think. I kind of treated it as like shading with a pencil lead.

I've seen many colorists use the technique as a way to lay down base tones for regular coloring too, so I always wondered if it would make more detailed rendering easier. Now that I think about it, if everything is a shade of gray, that takes the guess work out of picking colors and you would just focus on darks and lights, right?
