32 hands of Lohan



Finally we have finished the graphic novel! I am really excited to see it when it is all published. I think it will be a relief to hold a copy of the finished product in my hands. I can hardly wait! But now that it's done, I got to get back into drawing shape. I have been inking for so long it has almost escaped me how to actually put pencil to paper. So this is what all these hands are about. I have been practicing doing quick studies of my hand with a pen. One or two minute studies. This will hopefully build confidence in my line and quick decision making. I decided to do them in pen so that I can't stop and erase my lines. This way as soon as that pen tip hits the paper, I am fully commited to it. Good or bad. Sometimes very bad! I also decided to start with hands because they have really been a pain to draw lately. I will keep on doing some more studies and hopefully have a sketch to put up in the not too distant future.
But first I got to put some pencil/pen mileage in!

Thanks B,
It's hopefully going to be released at SDCC. Then it will see National release in Nov.-Dec. Now I just gotta get a lot of practice in for sketches and stuff!

Thanks for the links!
Hey can you drop me an email? I have some questions on your inking. I may need an inker for a comic I may be working on. Thanks again Jase..

Um..so I have had some questions as to why I called this post 32 hands of Lohan. Well it's not because of Lindsey I can tell you that. The fists of Lohan is a kung fu/Qi Gung technique. And some of these hands are kung fu striking fists. I forget that not everyone was as obsessed with kung fu and kung fu movies as I was. Sorry for the confusion :)
