The Griff Pg4 Layout — Description
Well, folks...this is the last thing I'll be posting of The Griffin Chronicles for awhile. Let's just say I won't be "allowed" to show anymore work, but I'll be working on it everyday

This is the page where I made the decision to just blow up ALL my pages to 11X17 no matter if there is a lot or very little detail on the page. As you can see..there will be a LOT of detail a small intricate parts on this page and staying small with it just wont allow me to do that. You see, I can't work straight onto the 11X17 page anymore. I do 90% of my work small then blow it up to 11X17 and lightbox that bad-boy! I do that because I can look at the entire page as a whole...work out all my proportions acurately instead of having to step back all the time when I work straight to bristol...and my vanishing points are all still on my art table Sometimes, I end up doing the page so tight and clean in my smaller layout format that I just scan it in at 400 dpi and send it to the inker. Most of the time...no ones the wiser.
Lately, I am doing a lot more detail in my work ( folks like detail ) and it just doesn't work as well in a smaller format to do finishes that way. SIt looses a lot of important..and very cool detail in the process. So, I have decided to just abandon that and just blow every page I do up to 11X17.

Anyway, here it is...the detailed layout of page 4. Keep your eyes open for The Griffin Chronicles soon!!!
