Mpls. 24-Hour Comic Day

Done!

Well, I'm basically done anyway. I'm going to hang around for a while longer, look over my art and make sure the crosshatching is somewhat consistent.

My goal was to make a 24 page comic in 14 hours or less. It looks like I'm at the 7 hour mark (although my brain is a little fried right now for math), so I accomplished my goal.

David suggested I use my remaining time to scan and color my comics. No, I'm too lazy for that. But once the pages are scanned, you'll be able to find them at my site, introspectivecomics.com.

The Dreadful four o' clock hour!

Im not totally sure why I called the post the dreadful four o' clock hour, but I did, and it sounds cool. I'm only doing eight pages, and finished around 3:45 and am now working on covers, so its all good. Kevin Cannon left for a long time, and is still somehow on track. He was probably driving and drawing, which is like driving and drinking but dangerous. Now I gotta go draw. Later!

sincerely,
The famous Lewis Tuck

BEER!

Finished pencilling and lettering my 24 pages.

Celebrating by drinking one of Avidors beers.

Avidors mind just blown by revelation there is a liquor store across the street.

19 hours to go..

Herge...more complicated than it seems...

So for my 24 hour comic, I'm attempting to imitate Herge's style of drawing. Check out his Tintin comics for examples. This may seem simple at first, but to draw it requires a bit more attention to detail than anticipated. But I'm enjoying the results.

Regrettably, I'm a page behind...

Best,
Mike Sgier

2 PM Updates.

Four hours on, and the ink still flows readily.

Hands have yet to cramp, but inklings of severe pain have already begun.

Rumors of roving bands of zombies continue to permeate the festivities.

We might very well all be doomed.

Our strength will have to remain in our numbers. If we band together, and wait it out for the full 24 hours, we might just have a shot at survival.

Hour 4: Stwalley shows up

2:00 p.m. Hey, Steve! How's it goin'? Have some pizza!

We're 3 hours in and most everyone seems 'on track' so far(except for Kriske. We have no idea what he's doing...).
