Deb Bonair - Chp 2 - page 6 rough!

About time! Rory will be pleased.
This is a rough of page 6 in the next chapter of Deb Bonair. I need to shoot Rory a brief description of what's going on in each panel so he can start doodling again. He's been waiting a long time for these roughs...I hope it's worth the wait for him!

White Heat No.1

Here's the cover for my new sci-fi anthology title featuring 'Deb Bonair'. Tom Columbus was the color artist on this beauty...over Rory Hensleys pencils and inks. I consider myself very, very lucky to have these talented guys work on my crap.

Extinction #4

Same same.

Extinction #2

Thumbnail by Rory Hensley...pencils, inks, color by moi!

Extinction

An illustration I finished for a freelance gig. The thumbnails were provided to me. I tightened them up and inked and colored in Flash. The thumbnails were by the awesome talented Rory Hensley.

Rory Hensley/Tom Columbus = Genius!

This is a peek at the cover for White Heat no.1!

Rory Hensley did the pencils and inks and his good friend Tom Columbus really knocked it out of the ballpark with the colors. The guy is amazing!

Rory Hensley did an amazing job and he's currently sketching out the second Deb short story!

Woohoo!

Deb Bonair - Page 1

Originally intended for color. I created, wrote and Inked this strip with amazingly gorgeous pencils by Rory Hensley!

The color thing hasn't worked out so far. it's taken Kevin Volo nearly a year and a half to put color to this. As far as I know there are only two pages colored.

So, I decided to go ahead and publish it in the second CGS Anthology book in black and white. I had to go in and alter the artwork to suit.

Who knows what'll happen. I still want Kevin to finish it...but I don't know when that'll be.

Deb Bonair - Ruff Colors!

Here's the first page of the Deb strip with preliminary colors by Kevin Volo. The colors are too dark and need some tweaking. Probably need to change the alien crew mates color and the ships captain too.
A tractor beam effect also needs to added.

Overrall...it all needs to be lightened up, but as a start...not too bad.

The strip should look fantastic after everything is complete.

Deb Bonair - Another panel

Another panel from the Deb strip.

I'm really enjoying inking over Rory's pencils. His work is so solid. He leaves me a lot of room to add my own touches.

The guy is a drawing genius...and a real pleasure to work with.

Deb Bonair! Teaser Panel!

Another sneak peak at the Deb Bonair strip.

Took me forever to ink this sucker.

Rory's pencils are magnificent though.

I'll post each page of the work in progress as soon as the whole of the debut strip is completed.

Sent this page off to Rory the other day. From Deb's debut strip. i'll post some of the inks from Rory's pencils later. It's bound to look fantastic when Rory is finished deciphering from my rushed thumbnails.
