The other big project around the labs has been Morbid Tales for Dreadful Children, which has been nearly a year in the making. The most recent page finds the Rake taunting little Ophie Miller; breakdowns of the pencils for this page, as well as the script, were posted earlier this week.
Once I have my pencils done for a page, I scan the image in and do the inks and shades on the iPad Pro. With this page in particular, I took the time to add some atmosphere to the shading. I really want to add a sense of beauty to the setting, even though it is full of mayhem and murder.
Here’s a time-lapse video of the process, I hope you enjoy it! Just a word of caution, though: I uploaded the video in HD, so it might take a moment or two to load!
Comments and questions are more than welcome!
Awesome! The page has such a great brooding darkness to it. Nice work!

Thank you! I was really struggling with these pages, actually putting them off for a few months. I’m ready, though, and should have a new page up every week!

Nice… I’ve been known to put things off indefinitely like that too! But now you’ve broken the ice I’m sure you’ll start galloping through these pages. Good luck!
