No thumbnail I'm afraid this month - I think it went astray somewhere between Baltimore and Holland! As usual I have to thank Nightcrawler for hosting the images - hope you enjoy them! Cheers Barry www.barrykitson.com

The more I see the black and whites, the more I think that the coloring job isn't really doing the line art many favors. Wrapped Around Your Finger now complete in BITS!

OP Barry Kitson Active Joined: May 2004 Posts: 626 UK	Hi Guys - Thanks again! There's probably about 20 hours work in that spread over two days, but it doesn't seem that long when I'm doing it. I would love to take longer over every page - I would absolutely love to be able to do the whole process for every single page and ignore every deadline....but then we'd have an awful lot of fill-in issues Having a great inker like Mick for the interiors really helps with letting the pages go out in pencil knowing they are in good hands. As for coloring the covers - I'd have to spend a few months mastering Photoshop first! I just about manage to do a few rough guides occasionally, but I'm a long way from being able to do the sort of finished look guys like Nathan can achieve....maybe one day though...

I like that we see the whole team on it, that means it is something big, so the whole team is needed. i hope that it means some characters will have some more panel time, i can't wait to see some in actions.
