Army of Darkness in Space - process

 

I don't really do process posts very often... I don't post very often... But I thought it would be fun to share. Above I've included my initial... "pencils" for the piece. From there you see drawing more refined... I decided to ink the spaceman on a separate piece to duplicate and manipulate clones and make minor adjustments easier. I was initially going for sort of a propaganda meets vertigo type vibe... and things sort of just turned into this. I don't color often so I tried some stuff out to try and get out of my comfort zone. Not sure if I'm finished with it... not sure about the blood splatter framing evil ash...need to render out things a bit more and try and make that hand pop...but in general I like where this almost is.

Army of Darkness 1992.1

I was very excited to get to work on part of this project. I am a huge Evil Dead/Army of Darkness/Ash fan, so this was just pure fun. Please make sure you preorder! It's 48 pages of awesome. Here's a link to the press release! Army of Darkness 1992.1 November 2014!

It was an interesting project to say the least. Stepping away from Robyn Hood was daunting, new characters, new faces, settings, the works - but I had a lot of fun, and felt like I tried some new things with the pages...I hope you all like it. Working with Cullen Bunn was great, and the script was a blast to draw. Getting to be a part of a special celebration of the Army of Darkness series with the likes of  Steve Niles, Elliott Serrano, Cullen Bunn, James Kuhoric, Mike Raicht, Francesco Manna, Juan Francisco Moyano, Juanan Antonio, and Matthew Childers was incredibly cool. I think I had Army of Darkness streaming every day for a few weeks straight.
