RE: Art Inception - From Sketches to Comic
Awesome process! So, you've been putting a lot into this comic since 2004 - amazing. I'm curious - why were you thinking about setting your story in North America? What made you change your mind? And who was the very first character that came to mind, when you started writing? Also... Any concept art for Lev? I just love that guy :)
Thanks. It funny how every sketch as an almost identical comic version.
I've always been very inspired by movie for my content and we have a lot of American blockbusters that all take place in huge us cities. I also considered Moscow because of Lev's origins. At some point I realised I should write about what I know that way the setting could be more than passive background.
For Lev concept art I would have to go back between 2001 and 2004 when I drew the character again and again on shool notes margins. Lol. I'll dig through it. I can say he wasn't always black and white in my mind (maybe purple-ish) but I would always use a black fountain pen to draw him!
I'll have to do a specific blog post about that!
You've outdone yourself.
Really cool! I agree with you that drawing/writing what you know always feels more natural and it comes across as such. And yes, I can't wait for a specific blog post about Lev :)
