Description
Well if anyone grabbed issue 20 Invincible yesterday you would know what this pic is all about. This is Angstrom Levy's machine, I'm diggin this character, he's just gonna get cooler. Anyway, this is a progression, layout, finished pencils, to inks. I'm finally getting more comfortable doing this tech stuff, it still is a big difficulty for me, but it's getting much easier the more I do it.Thanks for peekin.

The details are astounding...must have taken a heckuva lot of patience. I was wondering though, are the inks digital?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nope. I don't do digital, something I havn't got into yet. All freehand. Thanks!

Thanks

No light box for this. That would make my hand sweat and warp the paper if I drew this on a lightbox. To see my whole process go to my gallery and look at my OzF5 cover progressions part 1 and 2. I sketch the layouts with blue pencil, then go over that with an HB lead, then go over that with a 2B lead, tightening it all up, adding detail. Then I ink. Sometimes I skip the HB part. Hope that helps.

How can you bare drawing so many identical parts of that machine over and over again? I think I'd spontaneously combust. Top of the line work, as always. Incredible.

Thanks Monk! And I get to draw that machine in other issues too, in different perspectives, YAY!

About your signature. . not that wierd at all. I can't remember, is it tagalog or chabacano that is very spanish influenced?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hmm..
not actually sure..
but Tagalog has quite a few spanish words.. from whati can tell anyway..
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yup, dyou have any background in spanish? cause my Mom's filipino, but I never learned tagalog. I did study spanish for 4 years and for 2 quarters in college. . so i can understand tagalog, but i can't speak it. lol

poop. . i tried. hehe. well you've been exposed to it, so maybe that's enough for you to have picked it up. . but as ffar as like. . grammatically forming your own sentences. . you're screwed?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well forming sentences..
not so much.. it's more how i pronounce things..
it's like.. broke...
so i dun even bother..
like i know what 2 say.. but sumtimes formulating exactly how 2 say it is just a bitch..

Friggen sweet, chief. I'll drop by Black Cat Comics (if you know where that is) tomorrow to check it out. They might have my on-orders, so I might have some free cash to float on some Invincibles, if ya catch my drift. Oh! Funny question! Do you do signings? @____@

haha doncha just hate doing uber detail... how geof darrow can hack it ill never know haha ;D you did a great job with it tho...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dude, I don't know how Darrow can stay sane with all his detail, I know he couldn't handle a monthly gig doing his regular amount of detail though. I heard he spends about 3 days on a page, and it shows. Fricken amazing stuff, one of my fav artists.
WyA
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
3 days on a page would still be super fast when ya look at the amounts of details haha ;D id love to see him in action, see just how fast his hand can pop it out ;D

Heh...i remember you DRAWING this when i was at yoru old casa....and it's just NOW getting up here? Sheesh, you skinny fool!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes. See what happens is, I draw the book first, THEN it gets printed. THEN if I feel like posting someting after it's on the shelves, I do it. Now you know, and knowing is what? say it. SAY IT!
