Picked up Almost Famous for $5 the other day.. I forgot how good it was.. makes me think I gotta do some Penny Lane art!

But not today. Today we have digi scraps. Some atypical stuff from me, trying out things.

Not sure what happened with th' Hector book - I've been to a comic shop maybe twice in the last 10 months or so... but here's the piece I did for it. Two page spread, with the empty area for instructions on how to carve your very own turnip Jack O' Lantern!



I picked up a 2nd hand Apple Cinema Display, which I have to say makes a big difference when you're painting digitally (unfortunately the Hector piece was painted on a crappy HP LCD display). They do have known issues though, the entire 1/3 left side of my monitor is ever so slightly pink and off gamma... but that's ok coz I've just learned to work with all my menus and toolbars on the left. I also did a little RAM upgrade recently - all in the interest of getting more consistent and efficient with digi painting. I'll post some random experiments and things next time.
