Here`s a breakdown of my working progress for the cover of Meg 261.
Top left: Sketch.
Below that: Colour sketch for editor (Tharg the All mighty!).
Top right: Inks.
Middle: Colour background during Photoshop colouring stage. (Ooh! Pretty!)
Bottom row: Close ups of finished image.

I was so exited about doing this cover and kept exited while I was working on it. I`m still exited now it`s finished! For this geek it`s been a delight to do a Meg cover again after my last attempt, which didn`t go down well on all fronts.

Paul...If you think she looks like Uma that`s fine with me! She`s meant to some degree to look like Debbie Harry (Blondie).

Manu...please control yourself sir!

Mr.Bling...awww shush now! ~8^D

Chris...What have I told you about that potty mouth of yours?! And please try to keep you insanity under control!

You really do need to put up a detailed step by step tutorial on how you do your art. You are fantastic. I'd kiss you if I wasn't afraid of touching people.

I`ve heard that kissing over the internet can give you some kind of virus. But hey, cheers anyway!
