I think this is the page where I started inking the extra blacks right into the foil environment. Looks way better.

Would a hood work in space? probably not. Does it look cool and kinda mysterious? heck yeah. I like how panels 1 and 2 turned out. Survivor lady fightin evil starfish aliens.

The foil covering was something that evolved the more pages I drew. At first, I figured it's all reflective and there's a light source bouncing around so I went light on the inks. Later on, I felt it just looked better with some more blacks in there. Luckily it's not hard to touch pages up digitally. But anywho, it's purpose here is not to hide heat but to disguise the pattern of it.

weirdly pleased with how the second panel turned out, along with the teeth gnashing in the middle. Teeth are something I should draw more of.

page 51 WIP

my favourite expression of the whole series so far

I'm having one of those days where I'm trying to be proactive and start work ahead of time instead of cramming it at the end of the month, but all my nibs broke off in their pen holders! Thank god the craft store is open now but damn, all I wanna do is sit down and draw.

I used a different setting for saving the sped up video so hopefully it will be better quality but Youtube is needing more time to process. So if you're checking on this in the morning it might need more time or still be potato quality. Maybe some day I will develop the foresight to upload videos the night before.

Download the attachments for the spread and the separated pages!

First double spread in a good while, and I think this is the first I've done traditionally in almost a decade! Wasn't too bad, I had fun with the layout. I separated the pages once I got that central alien inked and I was pleased that it took minimal cleanup to stitch it back together digitally. I had thought to myself, of COURSE I would put the detailed hatching down the center line.

The inking on this took soooooooo long for all the texture detail, but it was weirdly soothing, getting in and hatching all the grodyness. I had to take a different approach and ink & fill area by area instead of doing a full inking pass followed by a filling pass.

I've also kept this page stuck to the wall as reference for future pages and it bothers me endlessly that it will always be crooked - either the panel is because of the angle I drew it at, o...

I was pretty tempted to have a good ol' air ventilation navigation but decided against it... maybe Erin will stay barely small enough to squeeze through them in the future, but for now, we have convenient access panels.

I keep being at odds with myself because I want to show physical strain, being hindered by the weight of one's own body, but this is an environment with variable gravity. That's still a  big belly tho, so, give and take.
