I've listed another piece of original art from Doctor Who #9. In fact, this is the LAST penciled interior page from issue #9 I'll be offering for sale on eBay. Read below for pictures, descriptions, and links;
This is the rough pencils for page #18 from Doctor Who Ongoing issue #9. Drawn in pencil on 11"x17" Blue Line Comic Art Board. Click --> HERE <-- for the auction.
From the description;
"I work mostly digitally, however I do work things out in pencil from time to time if I think it's quicker or easier for the piece/page. This was a page done in pencil as it was the first full image of the Angels of Enochai, an alien race created specifically for this story by writer Tony Lee, and designed by me. While the Enochai had appeared on a previous page, since it was a small shot of them, I did that one 100% digitally. On this page I felt like drawing the whole angel out in pencil a few times to get a better understanding of them. The detail I put into the initial design proved to be a bit much for the time constraints, so in future pages (and issues) I'd draw them digitally to speed up the process (there are a few exceptions to this on pages I may or may not sell later).
My process on these hybrid traditional/digital pages is thus; after receiving the script I rough out the page on the computer. For hybrid pages, I then will blow up the rough and lightbox it in light pencil onto a comic page. I then tighten up the pencils somewhat, but not as much as if I were working with another inker, so the pencils are still somewhat loose and rough, and backgrounds are usually very sketchy. I then scan the page in, resize as needed, and start digitally inking in Photoshop, correcting backgrounds, changing small details, and especially on Doctor Who, clean up the likenesses. I then pass it off to my editor and (in this case) colorist Charlie Kirchoff.
So what you have here is a somewhat rare piece of actual production artwork from me (and a page with not only the Doctor, but a good few of the lead Angel of Enochai). Most of these I keep, and I only have a few fully-penciled pages. The rest are headshots and filler/patch panels - and everything else is 100% digital. So fully penciled pages are very rare from me, and I won't be selling many of them..."
Thanks for looking and bidding!
