Sure enough I nodded myself awake and to my dismay, during my delirium of inking and sleep, I had drawn a parka around Spiderman's index finger!?! It was as if he was wearing a finger puppet with a parka....it was PETER PARKER'S FINGER PUPPET PARKA!
So I just went to bed, I needed a clear head to fix this problem. When I started work the next day, I was able to use an electric eraser to take off the majority of the dark ink. Then I used whatever lines for the border and the webbing on his hands to disguise the Parka lines. Finally, to get rid of the remaining lines that I couldn't disguise, I took a craft knife and scraped off the top layer of the bristol board, essentially scraping off the mistake.
In my haste to correct the issue I didn't scan in the finger puppet parka. Quite unfortunate. Well the purpose of my post here is that I finally was able to do the second half of the commission and color it with marker. So here it is...in all it colored, de-finger puppetted glory.
Spider-Man Colored - 091

I bet Robert did it on purpose. He's just making up this story to avoid going to Therapy.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should ask for parka puppets in my next sketch or you can surprise me?

ReplyDeleteOf all the "mistakes" that can be made, this is truly the most awesome!
ReplyDeleteWoah, I cannot believe how have you managed to correct that!
ReplyDeleteIniking on late hours is a bad combination, I have fallen asleep on the table while inking, and GOD THE HORROR!! :S
