Ok, update.. Here are the first 3 full pages I've had done for a while now, as well as a new short prelude animation before I get on episode 1 of the animated version. Just finished that one last night. I use UDK for some of the environment work.

Some details on the making of that, here: http://utforums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=722528

And if you have Facebook, you should be able to view this image, which is going to be part of the chapter/episode.. random tidbit.

Nice work indeed. I would suggest though atleast optimizing the images for the web, not least of all to make them a bit quicker to load.(bandwidth isn't generally a problem but these are huge) Optimizing them would also mean you're not handing out ridicuously high quality images of your work for anyone to steal.

Is the main guy wearing a skirt... how modern! ;)

Hehe, yeah that seems to be a favorite. I myself like it because it's a bit loose and dirty (k that sounded bad) and it's fun to work in black & white, I may do that more because focusing on shades rather than colors helps make the details more striking. It's also quicker which is a huge plus.

Shadow: Thanks, and I may do that.. though I'm not too concerned about stealing at this point. I always have the proof that it is my work in the layered images, hidden watermarks etc.. but I can see the logic in putting smaller filesize versions up.

Haven't decided whether it's a skirt (or kilt type thing) or just his sweater wrapped around his waist, I'm leaning toward the latter ;)

Panels 7 and 8 added, organized things a bit. I will make the latest images large so you know which ones are new, and put the older ones in shot tags to make the whole thing easier to follow.
