Hi, devs!!
As many of you are asking about how I do this pages, I chose one of them, the one I like most, to explain the different steps that I took to make it. Hope you like it!

STEP 1 > I sketch the storyboard (many of you may remember it ...) composing the page and what happens in the same.

STEP 2 > I mix the sketch with a basic modeling 3D ( that I do myself hand by hand with ~EditionDug ), just to see the relation between the characters and the new background, that obviously is not the same that in the storyboard.

STEP 3 > My 3D partner ~EditionDug prepare the textures, some of them painted by our colorist ~hideki , and render the final images (this action, which sounds pretty easy, takes loooooooooooooong time...) and I organize the final renders ready to print to do the final clean. Also here I add textures, such as the comic cover, or the Queen cloth poster.

STEP 4 > I print the 3D backgrounds (the final ones) mixed with the sketches, and the new corrections, and then, I clean it all at the same time, to make it look the same.

STEP 5 > Once I have the clean lines, I adjust it to the background, and decide what parts will show the 3D and which ones won't (look how I covered the sits.... because it will be coloured in 2D). I also add some details , as the panel besides the door, and that cables in the ceiling...

STEP 6 > Finally, i send 2 files to ~hideki >> the lineart, and the 3D with the textures. He put it in different layers, and do some kind of post production, ambienting the scene (see the BIG difference when he add ambient .... wooooooow!!) and he colors, using the lights given by 3D and the ambient given by himself .... Note how he changes the colors from pure to real ones.

And that's all!!

Hope you enjoy this Making of!! It will be moved soon to Scraps, but ... enjoy for the moment!

There is a powerful driving force within every human being that once unleashed can make any vision, dream or desire a reality.
:iconwondercow:
Wow thats a painstakingly rediculous amount of work for one page.

Worth it in the end though. Looks amazing.

yep, but .... that 3D background is already done for every page where apears this place .... this is why we do it in 3D.
It is hard for one page. but with this BG, we did 10 or 15 pages!!! ^_^
