Today's Wacom Test: Bone

Big props to Steve Hamaker who does this job for a living. Originally I hated the idea of seeing Jeff Smith's seminal Bone series reproduced in color, but Hamaker has really grown as an artist over the course of the run, or at the least he's found a lot more confidence in his use of color. Those books look good.

This morning I warmed up on a black and white Bone drawing I found on the internet. I think Phoney (middle) turned out the best, because I did the least amount of shading. Less is more?

from Nate Voss to you.
