I’ve just started work on a big commission of the Sam and Fuzzy crew as DC’s various-coloured lanterns, and I thought it might be fun to post each step of the process. Here is the rough thumbnail guide layout I eventually settled on. These kind of multi-slice, multi-character montages can easily wind up too busy & hard to read, so I tried to make some thoughtful choices about alternating character sizes, ring positions, and vertical orientation to make everything feel balanced. The commissioner picked the characters and their corresponding lantern colours… I’ll let the next posted versions of the drawing reveal what their choices were!
