I've tried it a few times and was surprised how much I liked inking on the blueline surface. And I sure don't miss erasing.Kevin Nowlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13850394971503635916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13144010.post-76585749719681469122011-03-16T12:05:32.359-05:002011-03-16T12:05:32.359-05:00Right on both counts, Kevin.

But my main reason for implementing this new process is to give the art director a chance to give me feedback before I commit to the boards. Before this I never really did any roughs worth showing to anyone, but Nathan Kane at Bongo wanted to see layouts or roughs, and it's a lot more time consuming to alter a panel after penciling on the boards. Now, if Nathan wants more room for balloons somewhere, I can make a reduced photocopy of that panel and paste it back into the roughs, without worrying about altering any of the surrounding panels.surly hackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14216490705383147445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13144010.post-67378858249306882792011-03-16T08:02:33.328-05:002011-03-16T08:02:33.328-05:00That sounds like a smart, efficient way to streaml...That sounds like a smart, efficient way to streamline the process. Do you ever pick up a pencil and tighten up a few details on the blueline before you ink?<br /><br />I'm guessing it also helps preserve a little of the spontaneity that can get lost in successive generations?Kevin Nowlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13850394971503635916noreply@blogger.com
