Week 10 Assignment

Art by Frank Miller, Sin City

2PVHigh Contrast
On a reasonably sturdy piece of approx. 11”x14” or larger paper, do a high-contrast inked drawing of a 2PV scene. Include realistically cast shadows and be prepared to justify them (A simply done overlay would be a plus. Moonlight is a natural for a high-contrast approach.)

Light source may be local or natural.

Draft your forms carefully but avoid unnecessary detail in the finish. Stark white and fully black shadows.

Ink the border late in the inking, taking care to respect the "Setup" rules below and the one on p.159 in order to avoid distortion.

MULTIPLE PRELIMINARY THUMBNAILS ARE A MUST (but I don’t need to see them)

This is a natural for “Dante,” Storytrackers.

Setup:
Never have both VPs in the composition. At most one VP can inside border--just inside. Right and left borders of composition should approach VPs only with caution.
