Description I got this Action sent to me without a heads up and at the tail end of my deadline for Batman the Return. It was also just days before my local Long Beach Comic Con.

I ended up having to skip all but a few hours Saturday at the con to make the deadline which was kind of a bummer, I love doing cons.

I swear the Finch covers always come at the worst times, but there is no way I'm gonna pass them on to anyone else. No siree.

I did this one in 9 hours after doing a Batman page the day before and not sleeping at all. I was up for like forty hours or something. I can't really nap either because once I crash I don't wake up for an alarm. I have to be shaken awake.

There was some learning to be done on this piece. The reflections on Lex's armor range from really bad to pretty good I think. His right chest and shoulder is where I started and those parts are pretty rough, but I really like his left arm, especially the forearm.

Having to do this stuff fast may not produce the best piece but it forces you to not overthink things and to get better with the brush.

My favorite part was getting to ink Larfleeze. He is a f@cked up dude.

This was 90% brush, nib on the faces.

Oh yeah colored by Alex Sinclair. Yes!

Thanks...ha ha, just noticed your name. gotta love the Griswolds.

Anyway, thanks dude. It was tough with this piece since it's a layered in a triangle composition.

All the hard work done by Finch in the pencils though.

Wow This looks like nib all the way. But ya fooled me just like Jon Glapion does when he inks his pieces that look like a nib but most of its all brush. Next thing ya know you'll be inking on a tablet just like him. I guess computer inks are better than no inks now a days.

RyanWinn In reply to zpro1 [2011-01-06 02:41:27 +0000 UTC]

Hopefully I will never do much inking on a tablet.

I'm not into that.

Wow, that sounds jerky.

Thanks for the nice words again dude.
