These are the various stages page 26 of the Cowrie Comic The Peoples King, Part 1 underwent. From pencils to inks, to painting, and finally, graphics and page laying.
I find the slow but purposeful development of illustration and graphic design very interesting.
The illustration shows the troublesome monarch, Oba Agberaga, in one of his characteristic self-indulgent activities.
The 2009 Comics Hut Catalogue is just going to press and I had a blast working on a series of designs for several comic book lines produced by my arm of the studio. I particularly enjoyed making compositions from the wonderful illustrations made by some of the top comic book talents here in Nigeria.
