Well this has been a busy week for me, and I’m feeling a little under the weather (even the weather is under the weather here on the wet coast, changing from sun to rain almost hourly) so I will just show you the page x for hero high this week and let the artwork speak for itself. Diego pencilled, inked and coloured this page and Ed Brisson provided the lettering. At this point 19 of 22 pages have been pencilled, so we’re almost ready to move onto the inks.
Heres the inked artwork w/out colours and then the finalized page.

Woo-hoooo!!! Beautiful artwork. You must be thrilled, Dylan, to see it come to life like that!

I agree — it’s so very pro! Amazing!

You have no idea… Diego really is everything I could have asked for in an artist. He’s fast and professional and his art is full of life and energy. We’re almost finished pencils now and I keep pinching myself. It’s gonna be a real comic book!
I keep showing my boys (9 & 13) the new pages as they come in and they give me useful feedback. They are really excited, not just for me, but also because they like the work.

Hey cw, strange, but my kids are also 9 & 13, although girls. They’re just as keen to see what’s going on. I’m tempted to ask about doing a talk in the younger one’s classroom about the process - I think they’d been interested to see the various stage. (must ask the Z2H powers…)
This is looking fantastic!!! The style and colours seem perfect for your book… and I really like the panel layout on this page.

I’m hoping Hero High will appeal to girls as well as boys…
But yeah I recommend workshopping your material with any kids you have access to. I’m always bouncing ideas off my kids and their friends
