Just arrived today. The 1st issue of the comic along with the prints we will be giving out at NYCC.
This started out as a simple drawing of X-Key with permanent markers. Then I decided to color it ...then one of the members of the team looked at it and told me "You should add a background." Short version; I ended up spending a lot more time with this pic then I planned, but it was a fun distraction. Sharpie and pencil, colored in photoshop.
Lead artist Jonathan likes to do what he calls “non-destructive drawing”, in which layers or other methods are used to separate different steps of an illustration in order to make changes to specific parts.
This can result in a lot of layers being put down but it’s nice to be able to go back and see how the rough sketch led to the final drawing :)

Pencil and digital can go pretty well together no?
Just really felt like drawing Lilith today. The original sketch was drawn with pencils and ink, then colors, shading values, and line art were added in Photoshop using a Cintiq 24hd drawing tablet.
Seems you guys like these process images so here a set from a pic we posted on instagram a few days ago. Hope you all are having a good new year so far!
