I'll use Manga Studio and the Frenden brushes.
Then if I like it, I'll colorize it in Photoshop.
Changed, finished a couple of things.
The plan is paint this evening.

WIP. Started , smeared it into a uniform mess. I'll see if I have the patience to paint into it enough to make it a decent piece.
I like it. I hope people that aren't color blind don't find it too wacko.
Still going to paint into it. This is all mac mini work. I want to give it some imac-cintiq touches.
Look at this. The top unsaturated item is Blogspot uploaded. The bottom saturated is Tumblr upload quality.
The more I study it, the Blogspot is probably what I was shooting for. I wonder what the deal is. I may saturate some more here and there based on the power of the saturation I see in the tumblr upload. But it also got mushier.
I'm done. Or at least I quit. Edges were fun but I still lack a lot of spots really finishing it. But it taught me some things about how to get the oil look I may want to use later for other things.
Came out yucky. Un-unified. The Goons chest. The shadow above the forearm. A mess.
But it would be throwing time away. Just something I learned from.
I have to also get that cintiq calibrated to match standard monitor brightness and saturation. That will take research. I've tried in the past. Need to try again.

Can't wait to see how the progress on this! Love the sketch!
Oh, great drawing Ellis. Is it for a client?
No client. Just liked the accidental oil look I got the other day. Want to pursue that. Nothing should keep me away from it today.
I guess it's not accidental when the brush is called OIL
These are real fun, Elz! I like seeing you work with the "oils"....tho' it's curious to me that you are always looking for a way to render your pencils--as if they aren't fascinating/juicy enuff on their own!
Yeah, I kind of like seeing your original pencil strokes Ellis.
I agree with Marty and Tom, although I like the oil treatment as well.
Final step. Bunch of easy to get to separations so I can make discrete (or big) changes
Really dig the 'justice at sunset' vibe I'm getting from the colors, Ellis! I love your painting style!
THanks Ronnie. I may give it one final whack.
I think you are way too hard on yourself. The final product is pretty bitchin' if you ask me.
I think it turned out wonderfully Ellis. It has a lot of feeling and has a unique look all your own.
