Hey hey heyyyy, I am so stoked to announce my third published cover with DC, LOBO #5! This was honestly such a wild one to even be asked to do; not only do most people not know that I can draw big, burly men, but I didn’t even really know I could draw big, burly men! And so a huge shout-out to my editor for considering me and trusting that I could pull it off! I am super fucking happy with how this came out 😌😌😌
This was another I pencilled digitally and then inked traditionally; despite the challenges of running around town to constantly print and scan, this process has been working really well for me (and I hope I can afford a printer/scanner combo some day!)! This was inked with thin microns mostly (except for the deep black spaces), which is very different from both my Supergirl and my Bleeding Hearts covers, where I was using a thick chisel-tip marker to ink. Since I have made this cover, my inking process has changed again, but that’s what I was doing at the time 😌😌😌
Here are some of the steps in the process!
Raw scan of the inks, including the blue-line underneath
Adjusted inks with minor changes here and there, most notably on the leg
Flats
Full body render
I hope you all love this! I actually have I think at least one DC cover coming out every month for the rest of the year hahaha. And so I hope you are excited! I know I am! When these covers are announced, it also opens up my ability to sell the originals, which I think would be lovely and will help keep me like super afloat 😌😌😌
Did you end up liking this piece? What other DC characters would you love to see me do covers for? Thanks for hanging around and checking this out! 😌
