green_dreams: (paper procrastination)
There's a webcomic I've started reading lately. SPQR Blues, what I'd guess you call an ensemble cast story of life in Pompeii. The latest strip is less detailed than usual, and has the note "I couldn't find my fine-line pen today ... so I only inked the parts I felt I could do with the gigantic 01 pen." Emphasis mine.

For reference--these letter you are reading upon the screen? These lines that make up said letters? Are probably appearing as *slightly* thinner than the line from a 01 graphic pen.

Gigantic, indeed. I only know of two people drawing comics who draw them as (practically) finished size--this artist and the one who did the four-part mini-series on the undertaker in a Very Strange World (blanking on the name, will dig up later).

But yeah. Neat series. Worth a look.
