Art Process: Tempo Part 1

One of our patron requests was for some behind-the-scenes stuff to show the process behind making OSAS, so here's part of the beginning of Tempo, allowing you to see the main stages I go through with the art!

The first is what I call layouts, but you could also call them thumbnails - not quite detailed enough to be called a sketch, it's mainly just so I can organize the panels' compositional elements, poses, and the basic gists of the characters' expressions.

The second is inks - I skip sketching and go straight to this stage to save on time and because it's what I'm used to. Now I'm unable to do rough sketches because I usually draw either layouts or inks OTL

And finally the finished product. Before it gets to this stage, Laurel helps me out by putting in the standardized flat colours for our characters, then I go in and add the specific palette, shading, lighting, any special effects like glows/textures/blurs, and of course the final version of the text.

Hope you enjoyed this lil glimpse into the process! If you guys like these I can do more (you can suggest specific scenes if you like). Good day!

- Jay

By storyboards do you mean the layouts, like the first step shown here? That's the first step of the art process 🙂

Yes, please do more processes ❤️ I'd also be interested in general story board stuff, if (still) possible.

Actually in love with your art style

Your thumbnails are very clean! I take a look at some artists' thumbnails and I literally have no idea what I'm looking at. 😅 But as long as you artists can decipher your own lines and scribbles then that is all that matters. Thanks for sharing the process!

Always fun to see the process that goes into the making of the story because I know little to nothing of the process. Thanks for sharing, really cool to see how it comes together.

That's really interesting! I myself do super rough thumbnails, then I start doing a crazy sketch, which I then clean. And that becomes line art.

This is the content I find most fascinating, a peek behind the curtain.
