On the drafting table for the beginning of the new year and just started inking the line art for this trade card poster (about 30% done). Will rebound progress and the final piece. Detailed view attached.
@Jon Contino I usually get them printed and swap them out in my studio. I think I have an addiction or something. I gave up on buying ephemera at antique shops and so forth, it got to cluttery and expensive. Now I pick and choose really interesting stuff, redraw it and remix it a bit and print it out at poster size. I've often thought about trading them, you know for reciprocity sake. I'll tell you what, Mr. Contino, if you see a piece I've done that you like, I'll trade it for one of your pieces that I like, which will be difficult. (In the sense of narrowing)
Had a chance to get most of the line work inked this evening. Just some finishing touches to address and then scan for Illustrator cleanup and details before coloring.
