GC#4 drawing continues, albiet slowly.

I finished page 31, in terms of pencil drawing, today (issue 2 goes from pages 19 to 36). I also have set-up and taken some Poser screenshots of upcoming panels. (This is what Poser was originally designed for — a digital artist's wooden posing mannequin.) These panels are important to get right — in terms of scale between the characters (there IS miniGTS in this one, BTW) as well as dramatic camera angles.

However, this phase of the production of issue 2 of grOw/cOmic#4 "grOwing Desires" is going a lot slower than I had hoped — mostly due to an overwhelming amount of "real life" work that has come down the pike. Long-time followers of my work know this is common, and is common in general in the graphic design world: feast or famine. I hope that it will ease somewhat by end of next week. I will continue to do some more pencil drawings, as little bits of free time pop-up, as they are wont to do.
Enjoy the pencil-sketch preview!

I have wondered about Poser, though since I still have my old copy of Maya, I us that for most of my background images when needed.

I've been using my wooden mannequin, and some of my Star Wars figures as reference, especially given the angles and size ratios so far in 'Beach Blanket Blueberry.'

There's one shot coming up that I keep putting off shooting a snapshot for reference, and I really should, since it's been a couple weeks.
