Do I have permission now to plaster the site with Age of Bronze ads?
Being the spouse of an artist. I know all about it. They are in their own little world. The cool thing is they can draw it, and show it to you! The green monster makes it’s appearance on occasion, but I would say I am more often in awe of, and proud of, my wife’s accomplishments. She is so amazing because she is so talented. She pencils, inks, letters, and colors her work, and other peoples. Currently, she is the inker and letterer (is that a word?) for Dick Tracy, now celebrating it’s 80th anniversary. THAT, is cool.
DICK TRACY ON GOCOMICS
If you want to see her coloring ability, this is one of my favorites, as well as this one.
I suppose you could also check out her Deviant Art site.
Looking at John’s work, I can see he spends a lot of time on it. The details in the patterning of the skirts and jerkins in the last panel, the way the shading was handled in the first panel, shows A LOT of attention to details. That took a lot of time to do. I hope he is appreciated for all of his effort.
Thanks for your comment, Wuntvor. If you’re interested in seeing just how much detail work goes into this comic, take a gander at the first 40 pages of color work that I just dumped into my Grotto of Manliness
