TMNT :: Raph :: ZIP-a-TONE

Hey guys,

As I said, I would show you a Black n White zip-a-tone version of the Raphael drawing I posted the other day.

Since Ninja turtles is a black n white comic book, I figured it would be nice to play with some black n white effects to see what could be done with my lines. It's the first time I have tried anything like this, and I'm not sure I got it right. Perhaps I was a little heavy handed in some areas. I dunno. It was fun though, and I think this really gives the art a nice textured sort of old skool look.

The drawing was penciled by me, with inks by Sean Parsons.
Zip effects done by me using PS. (not traditional ZIP)

You can check out the coloured version of this pic here: [link] My feeling is that most people will prefer the coloured version, but if you dig the B/W stuff let me know!

cheers!

J.

PS: For best viewing please look at the Full-view. You can apreciate the texture created by the zips best at that size. (I think)
