However, we do plan on having it done in time for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moccany.com\/mocca_festival.html\">MoCCA Fest<\/a>, April 10-11th at the 69th Regiment Armory in NYC, where Josh will have a table.<\/p>\n<p>Page 7 took me a while to plan out. Although I knew what I roughly wanted to happen and who was going to say what early on, I had to do a lot of sketches and try drawing the page with a number of different layouts. Josh has definitely drawn a pretty psyched-out Page 6, and I don&#8217;t want Page 7 to come up short.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some of my sketches, in chronological order:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hypercastle.com\/images\/2010-02-23_image1.jpg\"><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In this first one I was trying to figure out a good panel layout and some good back-and-forth magical attacks between Floyd and Shamanman.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hypercastle.com\/images\/2010-02-23_image2.jpg\"><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In this second one, I refined my idea of how I wanted Shamanman to attack.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hypercastle.com\/images\/2010-02-23_image3.jpg\"><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Once I busted out the Faber-Castelli I was really able to get some images flowing. I drew this one and the next a couple days later than the first two, at Sketch Klubb this past Thursday. The good people at <a href=\"http:\/\/gotopublicschool.com\/\">Public School<\/a> were kind enough to host us. Their studio set up is dope and it was good to jam with a bunch of new people.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hypercastle.com\/images\/2010-02-23_image4.jpg\"><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The final sketch from that nite. At this point I was on the verge of drunkenness and just kind of doodling some ideas floating around in my head, including Shamanman transformed into a yeti and some space invaders that I might put into a future project.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s one panel from the final page:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hypercastle.com\/images\/2010-02-23_image5.jpg\"><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I ended up using a lot of the ideas that I sketched in my final drawing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week I finished the seventh page of Titanic Clash of the Shamen, a collaborative comic that I&#8217;m doing with Josh Burggraf.
