Just another, lazy, dull day for Robert & Shiroc at the office.

I think this page also sums up Robert and Shiroc's relationship, as well as a quick glimpse into each of their characters.

This was a test comic I did entirely digital to see if this is the way I wanna go for the full series. Color coming soon-ish. Not sure yet - feedback appreciated.

Done in Manga Studio Debut 4. Definitely has some pluses and minus. I like not having an original to not have to store somewhere. The sketching pencil tools are awesome. The inking tools are not bad, but I spent a lot of time fighting them. As such this page took longer to ink (with a lower quality) than if I did it traditionally. Maybe that's something I will improve with over time. Hard for me to say atm. Also, very, very, very ercked that it caps out it's page max page size to *just under* the standard size used for American comics. As such this page is short by 1/4 inch on top and bottom. grrr!

Oh, and yes, Roberts office looks like a 1960's reject. With the tiny budget he has, he pretty much dumpster dives all the furniture from the rest of the base. After a while, it started having this "look" and he ran with it. At lest it has character. ^.^

Inking looks very smooth! Going to guess that you are planning to color it, or shade it.
