Requiem Sonata, inks ch1 pg 1-4 and 9-12

I've been working on these pages on and off for a few weeks and I really need to take more time to post them. These are inked with Zebra and Kuretake brush pens and the occasional Copic multiliner. There is a hunk of pages that are missing because those ones will be done with watercolors so I'm saving those all to do at one time. Overall I think it's coming out well, drawing smaller means less time to spend on things that aren't important, so I hope the pages don't seem bare, but instead feel less distracting. I hope you like them!

Requiem Sonata pencils, prologue: 1-4 and Chapter 1: 1-4

I've been drawing! It's been too long since I was making comic pages, and yes I still want to finish Curse of the Eel, but I needed a break and this is what I've got. Requiem Sonata is about a detective named Simoné who is a big fan of Zhi, a young professional pianist who has been performing worldwide since she was a little girl. I won't say too much but I hope you like the pages. Also this comic is drawn in a Stillman and Birn Alpha and Beta sketchbook, as I plan to use watercolor, WC pencils and pastels on the music scenes. This is the only paper I'd trust for a comic like this, but yes, I have pages to show. I'm sorry some of the scans aren't super crisp, my pencils are a little light in spots so if I push them up too far in Photoshop the lighter tones which hold some drawings together just vanish. For the sake of clarity, I've made them as dark as I can and pushed the white as much as I can, but you'll see it a lot more crisply in the inks and beyond.
