Ebimbola process

Hey everyone,

My latest piece is a comic and I thought people would be interested in my thought process going into something like this.

I always start comic pages with a tiny thumbnail. I got this from Bryan Lee O'Malley (creator of Scott Pilgrim). It’s a great way to get a feel for the layout and pacing a script requires. This one isn’t more than an inch tall but almost all the elements of the final comic are present (you can even barely make out the punchline at the end):

Once that’s done, I draw some concepts of the main characters. I knew one was just going to be a typical bimbo so I focused on the doctors (and mosquitos):

Then it’s time for a rough pencil sketch. This is basically a large version of the thumbnail. There’s a lot of problem solving involved at this stage. It’s the point where I figure out what’s required for the story to “work”.

You’ll notice I picked a wider angle for the first shot of the bimbo, and I also completely changed the panel where the mosquito is introduced. While I really like how these panels look in the thumbnail I felt it was more important to clearly show that this character is a bimbo (breasts and all) before showing her old photo. After all, this is a bimbo transformation comic.

The next stage is cleaning up the linework. Up until I post an image to dA, I’m still constantly tweaking things (sometimes even after) so you’ll see changes to the linework up until the final image. Here, I flipped the 2nd and 4th panels horizontally to make it clear that the bimbo and young doctor are facing each other. That created a problem with the 1st panel’s foreground which I solved later on. At some point during the inking process, I also decided to make the older doctor into a woman. This is the version I posted to tumblr earlier this week.

It was really important to me to have clear, readable silhouettes in this comic and you could hopefully see that already in my rough sketch. I didn’t always succeed (the last panel could use some more work, especially the girls in the background) but here are some tweaks I made to the linework simply to clarify a pose that had become “muddied” as I added details while inking:

I wasn’t particularly satisfied with the THWAP sound effect. While searching for a solution, I looked at the original thumbnail and realized that using the letters themselves as motion lines was a great idea that had been lost in the pencil sketch. I also zoomed in on the flyswatter to make it more impactful. I changed the script a bit, as well, to be less wordy.

Color! This is where the comic really starts to come alive.

The great thing about comics, compared to sequences, is that they force me to draw things I don’t usually draw. I use Google images a lot for reference and I always worry that people will notice I just grabbed something from the first page of search results. Like this image for “hospital ward”:

Finally, it’s time for shading and highlights. This is where I’m particularly proud of the final panel. I only recently realized that backgrounds are not only supposed to give a sense of place (*insert random hospital props*) but also create an interesting composition that guides viewers’ eyes around the image with its contrast and layout (in this case, to the newly bimbofied doctors followed by the bimbo patients). It’s not perfect, but I’m pretty proud of it!

And that’s it! I hope you enjoyed this image and this post. There’s still a bunch of things “wrong” with it (I wish the reveal of the huge mosquito swarm was more dramatic, for instance) but, as someone said: “it’s better to have a imperfect, completed piece than a perfect, incomplete one.”

Thanks for reading!

(and if anyone has any ideas on getting the image to show up properly on people’s dashboards, I’m all ears)
