Cometh The Hour, Cometh The Big Fat Man
13 years ago
So as some of the keener eyed amonst you will have noticed, Woods for the Trees actually updated yesterday for the first time since the beginning of the year. Huzzah, happy days! All that jazzy-jeff-type-stuffs!
But I've got my serious face on. You can't see it of course, but it's there. It's there because the new twinge in my back and the shooting pains up my aching hands cause it so. See my new job is shit. Total shit. But it's the kind of total shit that still manages to completely wipe you out after 8 hours despite the fact it pays minimum wage.
With that in mind, I've completely given up on "drawing" it during the week. By this I mean that I'm not going to do any sketching in the time off between shifts as what I'll sketch will most likely be shit of the highest magnitudinal plain (is that a thing?)
I'm concentrating on the sketching during my weekend, especially as my body is now atuned to working nights so I'm awake until about 6am in the morning even on my days off - leaving lots of lovely time to sketch out stuff. Inking and colouring are things I can dip in and out of once the sketching is done, but I've tried doing sketching over multiple days before - the characters/panels always come out looking different somehow....though I'm not sure if it's just my drug-riddled brain making me see things.
So there we go. Woods for the Trees. In colour and on Wednesdays of all places.
Right, off for a wee.
