#hex lovers

"When approaching a Sniper Witch, make sure its with your hands up and a contract ready to be signed. Also double check they're in-between gigs, otherwise you're just pissing them off."

"We were just sitting playing cards when this little pink light seared right through Gun Shaman's neck. We knew she was a wanted wiz, but we figured this far from town we'd be safe.

I made a little process gif to show how I make Hex Lovers:

Storyboard -> Page layout -> Pencils -> Digital Ink -> Halftone.

I've never felt like I was a strong writer so I always storyboard each story to get the complete idea down on paper. It might not be obvious but the rectangles are about 1x2". 

After I can read through the story I'll start on page layouts. This gives me another chance to review angles, and think about the flow and the reader's experience. 

At this point I'll sit down, find some solid reference and render out the page (panel by panel) in pencil. This is more for my own practice, I could probably do less work at this stage but I want to use all steps to improve as an artist.

Currently, I do not have a working scanner so I'm taking a photo with my phone and then inking on top of the photo. I'm working exclusively in photoshop for this step.
