I realised I should put the whole comic in one post. Here it is! All of Acquisition, part 1.

Acquisition cover
So, this means that Acquisition is finally finished, or at least the first story.
I tried some different techniques (seeing as a whole reason for doing Acquisition was to experiment and try new things). Rather than detailed pencils and inks, I did a pencil rough of the figure and the cybernetic organs, which I scanned and inked and coloured digitally.
I had the text for the boxes already written down, and I tried a couple of different ways of arranging them, and frankly, I'm not sure what I was thinking with the first version, below. Still, the more composed version above works better to my eye.

Great Gatsby, Batman! (well, no Batman...)
The last of the pictures I did for Tammy, this time from her favourite book, The Great Gatsby.

Charlotte's Web and Smaug
Another couple of pictures I did for Tammy's classroom, this time a Charlotte's Web picture, and Smaug from The Hobbit (based roughly on an Archaeopteryx, rather than the movie version).

Harry Potter
It's nice to get a reason to draw something different from my usual. Tammy needs some displays for her class, so I'm helping out. Here's Harry Potter.
