There was initially dialog, but I took it out because it didn't feel great.

And now, there's a credible threat. The original plan wasn't to have a blast happen through Gamma's abdomen, but I'd argue that is a more eye catching visual than just another big punch. Admittedly, this sort of image implies a few things. Are those things true? I know the answer, but it...

Communicating action is something that I'm progressively learning how to do. When I work on a page like this, a big part of it is making sure actions are well defined enough to where you can just look at it and get the gist of the impact. My initial idea for this page was for body shots of Gamma ...

Action page. A lot of abstract backgrounds and close ups because I'm a hack. The only real thing of note for this page is that I used a different method of inking than I usually do, which is with a chiseled pencil that I made a while back but don't use super often. It's nothing that would be supe...

This page is just a continuation of what was just going to be something quick and easy that I was asked to expand. I was left with a dilemma on two different things I wanted to do. One involving the entire ground playing a part and the other being a bit more simplistic. Since my skill set when it...

So says Justin, the writer of this episode:

"This page went through a few dialogue iterations, including the one that had been previously posted, but I ultimately decided that having no dialogue was better in the end to just focus in on all the actions happening. Also, there's a ton of spee...

Midnight Reign design blog - part 2

This is the first appearance of what would become Midnight Reign. I wanted to include a lot of the original color scheme but work to keep it cool looking. 

That was the main priority: looking cool. Normally, when I get into designing something, my initial process ends up being signific...

So says Justin:

"Originally, the fight between Gamma Cutie and Midnight Reign was going to be done in a total of...two pages. It was suggested to me that this should be a way to show off Gamma's absurd, cartoon level strength since that hadn't been done prior. This led to a tangent of a few...

Midnight Reign design blog - part 1

Hello, everyone. Justin here. 

In this series, I'll be detailing what my process is when it comes to the designs of characters in the world of Salvadora. The first one I'm going to tackle is the "newest" addition to the cast, Midnight Reign. If you've been paying attention to the comic...

If you've seen the previous incarnation of this page, you'll see an extra panel was added. I had an initial plan to have her say "you. big. jerk!", but that sounded stupid and dumb and lame. It also didn't seem like a good enough framing device for Gamma to actually become a violent threat.  ...
