Creating a Comic Book Page Part 9

This is part 9 of my "Creating a Comic Book Page" tutorial video. The video details my work process in creating the artwork (layouts, pencils, and inks) for the "Colossus" story published in "Origins of Marvel Comics: X-Men #1".

so how much time did this whole proccess actually take? from the draft to the finished image

[davidyardin]

@MrCheckersmcgee It was 8 hours of footage, obviously a bit more with food/toilet breaks etc; I did the page in a day.

awesome. watched them all. you are very talented sir. makes me realize how much more i have to learn with my art skills. but watching this also made me want to go and draw like a mad man. also makes me feel like my silly art vids with commentary that i just put up and silly by comparison.

again..thanks for sharing.

@pjperez Thanks. I haven't been doing that many sequentials the last couple of years, but I've got stuff out there.

Eight hours you spent on this? It shows, for sure, but man -- that is some immense effort to put into one page. Tremendous results, David. I don't think I've seen interior work from you before.
