Rage: Bane of Demons
You can now check the very first six pages of the Rage, Bane of Demons Graphic Novel. Script is by me, Art is by Thony Silas, and letters are by Steve Wands. Fonts are by Comicraft and Blambot. Click the title to acces the Book section, then click left or right to turn pages. Enjoy!
Character Design
Click the image to acces the Gallery of the artworks Thony sent me while working on Rage’s Character Design. The Character Design gallery showcases different versions of the characters. Basically, the Character Design process is quite simple : I send Thony detailled descriptions of each character that I feel need to be designed (mostly the main characters, but I also added some supporting characters). Thony then sends me some roughs and I send him back comments.
Panels
Click the image to check the panels of Rage’s first graphic novel. The Panels gallery showcases different versions of the pages in numerical order. Like the Character Design process, I send Thony detailled description of the pages, panel by panel for this story (you will find a sample in the Script section), but I might send him only a very detailed script for the next one, as I find it difficult to visualize each panel placement in advance. Then Thony sends me very loose pencils of the pages, so that I can check if everything is right, and I send him back comments.
As you will see if you compare the script with the panels, Thony has added more pages so as to have more space to tell the story, which is fine with me as long as the flow of the story is respected (and I don’t know how I would have been able to cram all of the dialogs in each page if he had followed my page numbering).
For each page, I have included the roughs version (that Thony sends me for approbation), the penciled page and the colored page (with dialogs placeholders as bonuses).
