Editorial

I’ve been a fan of Scott Kurtz work, a web comic artist seen to be the 'father/creator' of the web-comic genre. I’ve always wanted to create a web-comic style illustration but have never had the opportunity or brief that could make best use of that particular art style until now. It’s interesting to see how he creates his artwork, which can be seen on live drawing sessions most days.


Naturally I started out with initial drawings, developed ideas and then the final piece. Below is a visual timeline of the steps I took create it, and below that is the final piece itself.



Further Alterations that will be made in the future
The main aspects that need resolving on the image itself are the central two characters (scientist and passenger in yellow T-shirt). The cartoony look of these two characters does not match the slightly realistic look of the passengers in the background, for continuities sake these aspects could be changed.
