Scott Taylor made the comment that he’d like to see a rendering of Kaleb – our hero from the Gun Kingdoms books – in regular clothing. I thought it would be nice too, though I can’t say without some reservation that mechanical wings are part of “regular clothing”
As far as process goes – I work the image up on successive layers of tracing paper and then when I make a final version I turn around and make a half-dozen photo-copies. I’m fairly confident with my marker work but having extra copies to fall back on in the event of an error is a good idea.
Even though this is the final ink drawing I may tweak it before adding color. For one thing some cut-outs on those main wing spars would seem in order – for reducing weight/increasing lift.
