Finishing with a Bang!

Work on The Adventurers issue 4 is about wrapped up so I feel the time is right to show you all something special. At last I can share the colour cover art for The Adventurers issue 4! So excited to share this. I love what Cara has done with the colours.

Issue 4 cover art.

As many of you know, My sister Cara has been instrumental in helping to make The Adventurers comic a reality. She lettered issue 1, drew a back up story in issue 2 and has coloured all The Adventurers comic covers, making them distinctively bright and eye catching. Issue 4 will be the last cover coloured by Cara for the foreseeable future as she needs to devote more time to her illustration and design career.

The work Cara has done for The Adventurers is only a hint of what a talented artist Cara is. You can check out her work here.

 So, in essence, this blog post is a big thanks to Cara for all her help and support. I sincerely wish her all the best with her career endeavours and hope it's not too long before we can work on a comic together again. As you can see by her work above, she is literally finishing her time with Bolt Comics with Bang!

Thanks again Cara for all the help from Ellie, Booster, Rocbadger and me. :)

The Adventurers Comic: Issue 4 cover colour sneak peak.

The line art for issue 4 is nearing completion. I have one page left to pencil and three to ink. Then the hard bit begins! Digital finishing and editing, lettering and the overall job of getting the issue print ready. Thankfully, one thing I don't have to worry about is colouring the cover. Cara is continuing the vibrant look of the Adventurers covers by colouring this one too. Here is some work in progress of her work on the cover.

The Adventurers issue 4: Now with more explosions.

If you think these look nice (and who wouldn't?) You should see the final version! But you'll have to wait for the big reveal of that one. It will be revealed closer to the actual release of issue 4.
