Scene Two p3
PeterAaronRose on April 2, 2007
One of the best experiences I had in working on the Killing Demons project was in having the opportunity to collaborate with Brent. Scene after scene, he really “got” what I was aiming for and the book became fairly easy to script once we established a good rhythm between us. I had a rough outline of the book early on, and we typically worked scene by scene, where I would be scripting the next scene as Brent was finishing the current scene.
But when I got final pages back from Brent for a particular scene (such as this page in scene two), it was clear that the art could carry the plot on its own without the need for a lot of dialogue exposition. So, we exorcised some of the script during the lettering process in order to let the art do a lot of the talking.
Regarding this page in particular, I fondly remember being delighted in how Brent was able to create a lot of story movement with Joshua's gloves alone, which would have been lost if they were obscured by dialogue balloons.

That's a very lovely and very disturbing scene! I would say you accomplished what you set out to do!

I was going to mention something about Fullmetal Alchemist but that would probably be disrespectful.

Other than the fact that you probably mean "lose" not "loose" this page is gorgeous. The inking and shading is superbly, creepily atmoshperic. ^_^

Beautifully handled page! Very nice, for a macabre scene...the motion is very fluid as you said!

His arse is talking to him, does it often give him hints?
