Illustration and article!

The last issue for this semester of Sesat Magazine has arrived, it's only available in digital form, if you'd like I can send you a copy. I did a new illustration and the editors liked one of the last ones I did so much that they used it again! For this issue I also wrote an article about studying. I might do a translation of it and post it here, some time in the future, maybe... By the way the issue is in Swedish!

Below you will find the new illustration.

Take care

Clean up has begun...

...but it goes slowly, things that need some attention keeps popping up!

I guess that's how it is sometimes.

Take care!

Did the clean up begin?

Well, uh...begin is not the right word for it I guess...

Well, to tell the truth, things came up that I had to deal with so the clean up hasn't yet begun.

Today it will begin!

Finished sketches in blue

The sketches in blue are now finished, and the clean up will begin! Hopefully later today...

Here are the thumbnail and the sketches in blue:

The characters are quite finished, I just have to clean them up a bit. As you can see the only change that I've done from thumbnail to the larger sketch is the last panel on the bottom of 16B, where I put Héloise in semi profile looking at Quentin. This because it ties better with the previous panels.

My favourite pencils are the mechanical ones, I've got a whole range of them. Even for my sketching in blue I've used a mechanical pen. This time around my blue "leds" ran out, so I used another blue pencil, a regular one, and boy did I have to sharpen that one! Almost constantly I had to stop drawing to sharpen the tip on the pencil to get that fine line, that I get all the time with my mechanical pencil. I can understand why they use mechanical pencil sharpeners at the studios.

A funny thing that I noticed is that this blue pencil is quite hard to erase... so it will be interesting to see how the clean up will go...

Take care!
