I gotta cut down on the time it takes me to complete these comics. It's not that I do too much detail (I could do a lot more). I just have a bad habit of drawing very faint lines at first, then I go back over those lines a little less faint...and over and over until I slowly get to the point where the drawing is dark enough for it to be complete. I'd save a lot of time if I would just lay down darker lines to begin with. It's years of bad habit that I have to unlearn...
This is my original character, Latte, for my graphic novel. This was mostly an opportunity to practice my lighting and shadows. Drawn in pencil, then colored on the computer in Corel Painter. Character and art (c) J. Johnson
