Skullkickers Online - 'The Beholder' 05-06

All this week over at Skullkickers.com Jim Zub is serializing the six-page story I drew for his "Tavern Tales" anthology back in 2011! Written by Zach Weiner of SMBC, hit the Download to check it out at full 16x12, and check out the pages on the webcomic to read the script and see it in full, glorious color by Espen Grundetjern!

With pages 05 and 06, we come to the conclusion of this little tale. Page 05 was one of my favorites, I had a lot of fun with the expressions and action, the courtier throwing up in his hat was one of those bits I added in that got to stay. Because I came up with the gag as I was going along, I had to go back and redraw his hat on the first page in order to make the continuity of the joke work.

I swear, I promise, I've learned how to draw horses since this. Really and for truly, I have. I got a book and everything.

Drawn in Manga Studio EX v.3 on the Cintiq. Check out Skullkickers online, Jim's publishing the entire back catalog, so it's easy to catch up, and when you find out that you love it you can jump ahead of the webcomic by moving on to the print! It's awesome!
