There's always an odd combination of sadness and joy when an issue ends. And a little bit of relief that we managed to get there in the first place. This one did seem to get tricky in places. But that's something to work on next time.

Issue #3 - Behind the Scenes

We hope you've enjoyed it and if you feel nostalgic there's always the Issue #3 ( Read more... )

Page 89 - Research Notes

The comment about 'Hidden Truth Magazine' on this page is a reference to The Pure and Hidden Truth webcomic. Also Scott McCloud linked to Dark Red. How cool is that? Here's the link to his blog entry.

Scott McCloud's BlogIt's worth checking his work out if you want to know more about comics as a medium. I've got ' ( Read more... )

Well, here we are, the last page of Issue #3. Next week is the bonus page, compiled by Jo, and the week after is the behind the scenes page. Which I'm really looking forward to doing.

Page 88 - Hell or High WaterDaniel always was the one for grandiose ideas. If the water gets blessed then Sarah will be able to see it. This was one of the really ( Read more... )

I wish I had the time and energy to do two pages of the comic every week. But I don't. Sometimes I run out of time and sometimes its energy. When it's both we really run into trouble getting a page out at all. Sadly I have to leave the house occasionally, to work full-time, to see family and friends, to help out in people's lives, to do all the ( Read more... )

This is something I've never tried before, the one page panel. I thought Iain seeing into people's heads really easily was a good use of it. And it's been something I've been thinking of a lot recently. What if you could read people's minds? See right into their hearts. And not just the surface thoughts. What if you could read the things we don't ( Read more... )

Sorry, this page is late. I got about half way through the update last night and fell asleep. Go figure. Anyway, we're back with the Nephilim for a page. Now you know how he survived the flood.

Page 85 - Rainy DaysThis was the quickest page to shoot ever. It actually started to rain just as we started. And poor Calum had to jump up and down from ( Read more... )

I decided to go all out on panel 5. I just kept increasing the brightness. It had to be big. It's the dramatic conclusion after all.

Page 84 - Lending a HandAlso panel 3 was mad to shoot. I was hanging over the edge of the mezzanine. I couldn't hold on to anything because I needed both hands to keep the camera steady. And I kept thinking I was ( Read more... )

And we're back with Anders and a lot of chaos. How will our brave heroes stop him? I do love these pages of general madness and running around. They are a hoot to shoot.

Page 83 - ThunderstruckWe've got the best weather just now. So hopefully it's off to the park tomorrow. But I'll have to get some comic stuff done first. I'm also doing a painting ( Read more... )

This cracks me up. And I also thought the engineers are kinda cute. :D

It's been an insanely busy month for both Jo and myself. With all sorts of family commitments, events and an assortment of random stuff dotted about. Added to this I've had a really sore back for most of this week. I was a fool last weekend and actually exercised. This has been an ongoing thing for the last month. Why this should annoy my back this ( Read more... )
