Good luck with the sketch up! It is a fun tool, are you using the free download or the pro version? I have used it for some client presentations and also to generate some sketch bases for looser drawings.

Need sketch up for your non comic artwork?

Good to see an Eisner character from you!

Ah Royce, I've missed your puns. :)

Thanks Mike. I am using the free download right now. Watching various tutorials. I will move to the pro version when I get a handle on it.

Gary - Yes, non comic work. Trying to expand my skills for the "road map", visioning art I do for clients. Being able to move things in space and keep it in perspective would be a big help for me in the design and review stages.

As for the Spirit, man I love those stores. Mostly the ones after Eisner came back from the war. I still think I have the ones that Kitchen sink published in the 80s and 90s in black and white. For me, black and white is the way to read them.
