The Unscratchable Shane

Hey I did some Ghost Files skeptic fanart and it appeared on the show!

This was really fun to work on and, as a skeptic myself, I wanted to do up a piece for our side of the show with a bunch of reasons for noises, shapes and glowing eyes. The raccoon is 100% a reference to S2 ep1.

Coming Out

Comic with four panels, done in black and white with halftones. Panel one shows a young Jigen with his back to the camera and his shoulders tense. He says “So…?” Panel two, a larger panel with a close up shot of his face as he turns around and looks to the right, his expression is pained and there’s a tear in his eye. He yells “Doesn’t that bother you?!” Panel three is a wide panel with young Lupin in the center from the shoulders up. He’s mad as Jigen accuses him. He says “No. Should it?” Panel four is an open panel of the two boys looking at each other from a side view. Jigen is leaning back away, while Lupin leans in closer with a determined and expectant expression.Comic with three panels, done in black and white with halftones. Panel one floats atop a big open panel. Young Jigen is startled and unsure of himself, he says “N-no…” Panel two is a big open panel with no borders or backgrounds, it shows a confident young Lupin with his hands on his hips and his eyes closed. He says “I mean my grandpa is into guys too, you know. So I know what’s up!” Panel three is a big wide panel with Jigen in the center from the waist up. He’s blushing and looking down and to the left with his shoulders by his ears, still a bit tense, but smiling now. He says “Uhh, yeah. Okay. Cool.”

An idea I’ve had for a while, even before Zero, but after Zero came out I thought that’d be the perfect way to present the idea.

This page in particular, the dialogue has been floating around in my head for probably well over a year now.

Also testing out TrueGrit’s halftone machine on this comic and… I gotta say y’all, I kinda love it! I’ve been wanting to do more halftone work but haven’t been able to find a look I like or a method that fits well with my workflow.

Hound & Watson

Coloured drawing of Sherlock Hound holding Watson’s hand while standing on some cobbles with a deep blue background.

Finished watching the blu-ray copy I grabbed of Sherlock Hound. I’d never watched it before so I took a gamble on it but wow was it good! Highly recommend the Japanese version!

Holmes and Watson were really cute so naturally I had to draw them. Check in next week for some Moriarty.

Two versions because I’ve been playing with tones again and it’s fun to try out multiple styles on my public pieces.
