Monday's Comic - Doc Rockstrong Part 6




This last installment ended up being 2 pages, although I would have loved to have the fight run for several more.

I started this particular project with a clear idea of what style I wanted to achieve - very simple 2D environments and people with only the Monoliths standing out in heavily shadowed 3D. The idea was to allow for faster illustration, pausing only to give the monolith's extra weight.

Instead, I ended up putting multiple special effects (shadows, glow, etc) on nearly every element in the comic - hats, grass, sky, crystals, people, etc. I am happy with my new fonts, however.

I may bring Doc Rockstrong back for another story, but it will look much different from this first one. I hope you enjoyed it - and go learn about the statues of Easter Island - they are extremely cool.
