Sketch Week 13: Ellie On Planet X

by | Jul 1, 2011 | blog | 5 comments

Last night on Comics Coast to Coast myself, Brian Dunaway & Matthew Ducharme interviewed James Anderson, creator of Ellie on Planet X. We had a great chat about James’ beautifully illustrated comic. I couldn’t resist doing some fan art. Plus, I just had to try out the “sorbet  pallet.”

Here’s a look at just the inks and the roughs. Makes you realize how much work James puts into that wonderful pallet!

    That’s awesome. Looks almost identical to James’. However your line work distinquishes it from his.

      Thanks Jared! Thus was super fun. I don’t get to mess with color on paper very often.
