Hey Ally! I have a few questions for you:
One - How long does it take you to do a page of one of the comics?
Two - How do you do the design for a person over and over again once you get their details down so it looks like you are using the same drawing only moving them?

Hello! Good questions!
Let's see...I'm not sure how long it takes...I'll time my self here in a bit and tell you then.
Question the second: I make design sheets for them. Similar to the ones that I have for Corp. Agents and make note about the key details that define the character, like how pointy their chin is, the angles of their jaw and the like. This helps me to keep their proportion unique to a particular character. Also, accessories in the proper placement (clothing too) help with the consistency.

Ok, so far the time is roughly 40 minutes and I just go the pencil done. I'm recording myself so I can get a better time estimate. The video didn't record me drawing the borders for the most part so I had to guess how long that would take me based off the songs I listened to. I'm going to do a separate video for each part. Next comes ink, which I estimate will take me about an hour since I add the back ground then. I have no idea how long it takes me to do tone.  Hope this has helped so far. I was thinking about posting the videos on Youtube, but I'm not sure, they're long! |

Google video might be better, I think they let you post longer videos I think Youtube is limited to 20 minutes. |

I think it'd be cool to film you drawing a page! Even though they are LONG, you could always speed them up and add music!
BTW: You seen Freya's picture of Dune she posted here?

Ok, the ink takes about an hour. I just got done recording it. Oh, my, goodness this video is going to be big! Oh, and by the way I have a panorama of my office on my website. |

Wow... No wonder it takes awhile to do the comics. It's cool you do a like fact sheet so you can remember details and stuff. |
