Watch OUT!

Here's a quick storyboard test i did. You know, your typical killer mermaid on seashore..

the Living Dead for you..

Dead beat, can ya dig??

Here are some roughs I start with, usually thumbnailed out and tightened a bit and that is what you see here. Usually jumping into the ink phase right after with maybe a few areas I would tighten up in pencil, as well as a few places I want to find when I'm inking. Always leave room for some good old fashioned spontaneity. But here you can see how this process sort of evolves along the way.
