Empress of Thieves 4: pencils pages 16 & 17
Added 2022-02-14 16:33:29 +0000 UTCOOF. More scenery, eh? Obvious tip, just find photo reference. Friggin' pull details out of there instead trying to come up with literally everything from your own butt. Of course, keep the details relevant to the setting. but goodness, I've known professionals that trace backgrounds from photos AND THEY'RE RIGHT TO DO SO.
Little rant aside, I'm trying to keep little "identifying visuals" for each city, at least for the exterior parts. Did I manage this for Thournemounte? Probably not, but Tallieueax's are "vertical, needlessly tall, lattice, and foliage/ivy". Gonna have to keep this going forward, because I have yet to write a number of locations oops.
Side note, how many "KLANK"s is funny? I pencilled in A LOT of them in the first panel there, and I think I'll have to cut it down to much less. These are the weird technical bits to think of, how many klanks are too many klanks if they slow down the reader.
Ack, I should get to inking.
Hope y'all enjoy these pages! And have a good week! :3
