No comic again today. Apologies. How about another preview of one of my bigger projects as a stopgap for lack of humorous triptychs? These are the first four pages of "Falling Still," a graphic horror story inspired by the Silent Hill video game series. I have been working on it on and off for almost four years. It was meant to be done entirely in brush pen - I really like the slightly tremulous lines, the varying line weights, and general atmosphere of out-of-controlness of the pens. They fit the story well. But as often occurs, the best laid plans aft gan agley. Sketching and inking the pages in "meatspace" takes a far greater chunk of than I can commit at this point in my life, and I really want to finish this story. It's spooky, but I think that its message is best borne in darkness. So I scanned all the pages in (there are 44 presently, with 25 in various stages of inking...should be over 100 by the end), and we're going to rock this thing tablet style.
