http://www.jldunbar.com/JLDunbar.com/BANG%21_Sketches.html I wrote this book while living in Boston in 2006 & 2007, where I made regular use of the public libraries, researching illustrated children’s books, comic books and the creation of the universe. I began illustrating the book in earnest in 2009. I did preliminary drawings in pencil and ink to design the characters and the basic paneling. I scanned these sketches and used them as the foundation for my final illustrations, which I made in Adobe Photoshop with the help of a Wacom drawing tablet. I designed the book in Adobe InDesign and had it printed by CreateSpace, an on-demand publishing service owned by Amazon. Here you can view some of the sketches I made during the production process.
