What’s your production process?<br />
Is it ink and paper or<br />
tablet based?<br />
I definitely use computers<br />
and a Wacom tablet to speed<br />
up the process. Magazine<br />
work can have a very short<br />
turnaround time. It’s not my<br />
preferred method but if I need<br />
to get something done in a<br />
couple of days then I’ll whack<br />
out a design on the tablet and<br />
digitally produce it from start<br />
to finish. The way I do like to<br />
work - and I do this 70% of<br />
the time - is to pencil-out a<br />
sketch for a client, get the goahead,<br />
refine the sketch and<br />
tweak some bits. I’ll then take<br />
it to a Light Box and brush the<br />
blackwork in ink. I’ll ink it by<br />
hand and then scan it. I’ll then<br />
digitally colour it from that<br />
point on. Digital comes into<br />
the process all the time purely<br />
because a lot of the stuff I do<br />
gets screen printed, so to set<br />
the layers up is much easier.<br />
