The original Ebony

Before I got the idea for this graphic novel, Ebony started out as a character design for a possible animated short. Here's some of the design which may actually make it to the book...

Ok here are those pencils... Terrible... I usually pencil a lot tighter and you can actually see how it affected the inks but hey this was just a test.

More Experimenting...

Ok so I did the rough panel tests. Basically I inked over stick figures. In fact I'll post the pencils later today. What I'm thinking the next step should be is a finished page. Just one. That's actually fully pencilled and inked. Stay tuned for that. In the meantime, I've begun the script which will be 120 pages. I'll post snippets as I go. I don't want to give away to much!

Test panels

Ok so I'm playing around with the style and I think I want to go a little cartoony. I whipped these up on Sat. just to get a feel. As far writing goes I've worked out my story beats for the 120 pages. I plan to begin writing the full script this week.
