Some folks have been asking about my technique recently, so I thought I'd post the first page of The Farmhand in its current state.
What I posted earlier was just a preliminary sketch pass to get down the positions of the characters. What I did first was lay out the panels in their final configuration, and re-align the sketches to them. Then, I've gone back over my sketches with a darker blue, leaving out construction lines and anything obscured, and also fixing any anatomy problems I could spot. This is where I pick which lines are going to get inked, even though the lines themselves are still rough. I've also tweaked the models a bit -- Bess now has proper ears and her cowbell, and Troy was given a ponytail and a much more horseish nose. I'm planning to do the background in a watercolory style, so I'm not laying out inking lines for it.
OMG, no naughty bits on page one. Art I can flag as "General"?! What is the world coming to!

I think maybe Troy's eyes are a little too far apart on that third panel? And there's something wonky about his face on the last panel. Other than that it seems good to go. And I'm excited to see it. I ADORE Bess and the way you draw her. Wish I were as good with expressions as you are, too.
Well, I am doing this at print res so I could get it printed if the opportunity arises... but I fully intend to release the web-size version for free.
Speaking of, are there any full-color furry porn comics accepting submissions you guys know of? If this gets printed, I want it to have COLORS dammit.

Yeah, they are a pretty exclusive and hoity-toidy club from all I've seen. And their art isn't even that great. I fap way more to your stuff than to theirs to be honest. A few smooth digital lines an erotic piece do not make. You'd think though with all of the furry publishing and media companies out there today that someone would be willing to do one-offs or something. If I weren't so busy myself with other projects I might look into doing a quarterly full color smut publication just to promote artists and get their work out there, help them make some money too.
