Progress

So this past week in IP I began working on individual drawings, which (as I discussed in my meeting) are coming along a bit slow as I try to make all of my drawings look like they exist in the same world/ book. I am getting quicker, and my goal is to have half of the spreads done by the next post. For this zine I am choosing to do everything on an isometric grid, and use both close ups (to get the gritty detail) and distant 'shots' to make things a bit more dynamic.
In terms of purchases: ALL IS WELL. Screens are in (my hometown, so they have to be driven here), I have all the tools for exposing, plenty of extender and I picked up big containers of process yellow, cyan and magenta this morning. I've also got a sample of hot pink that I'll probably use in a poster or five. Everything is ready to go, aside from illustrations and the paper, which I am avoiding dealing with because it is so damn expensive. I also have to get back to finding where/how the hell I'm going to pull of this shop thing.


First spread. That blue diagonal line is going to be a road with a smashed car and a dead deer on it, lovely. Excuse the color testing things.

This is what I was talking about with the whole 'getting my animals to look the same' thing. I made this and decided it looked nothing like anything else. Maybe I'll give it to someone who likes Ed Hardy.

This is a better drawing of a tiger. These will look different at the end of this week (put 'em on an isometric grid, make them more interesting/ gory).
