Moved

It's tenure on blogspot has been a short one. Stoned Heroes has moved to a new home: http://www.DrunkDuck.com/Stoned_Heroes.

Updates will be Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Enjoy!

Cover 1

I did this entirely in photoshop. My mouse-hand hurts.

Words?

Trying out word bubbles to see what I like. I need more fonts- Comic Sans is terrible. The text may also need some tweaking.

More panels!

Here's a couple more WIP panels for your viewing pleasure.

I have to say: none of this art is near my best from a technical standpoint. Yet, I really love the whimsical quality that shading with the burn-tool affords. As I learn more about what I can and cannot do with the tools at my disposal, the comics will increase in quality. It's my hope that this initial coloring style stays relatively unchanged, but I also feel that there are other areas that need improvement. So, if anyone running across this has any artistic criticisms, I'd love to hear them.

Things can only improve from here.

This is just a panel from one of the pages I'm working on. I liked how the background came out, with the pot leaf explosion, so I decided to share it.

Page 3

That's the beginning of my 3 pages per week. If things go according to plan, there will be 3 more pages up here by Sunday.

And so on and so forth.

The beginning

In an attempt to gain a following while I work to make an actual website home for my comic, I have decided to begin a blog. The plan is to put up bits of the comic as I work on it so people can (hopefully) get a feel for it and (even more hopefully) like what they see and want to see more.

The idea is to get 3 pages completed every week, so aside from the previews of comic pages I'll be updating the site with the how many pages I've completed and similar stuff. Not to mention the status of the final website.

So, that image above is the first 2 pages. I'm using comic-sized pages, so it's basically a big spread page. There will be more to come very soon.
