Eik of Late


It's been ages since I put up anything from Eik, and much has progressed. I have about 40 pages (of 52) inked right now, and colour is just around the corner. This wintersession, I am working under the guidance of R. Kikuo Johnson, with my two fellow comic artists, Myken Bomberger and Anita Tung. To summarize, our project is a three-person anthology under the working title Fracture. Each of us is working to complete a comic of around 40 pages to be placed in one book. Our works are pretty diverse both in themes and visual style, so it should make for compelling reading. I'm honored to work with Myken and Anita, as they are both very talented artists. Anyway, enough back-patting, below are some inked parts from Eik, mostly in order.

Last note, say 'Eik' similar to as you would 'Ike'. Eik is primarily a Scandinavian name which can be used for any gender. Literally, it means "oak". The world of "Fangren" is based on the word for "prison" in Norwegian and Danish, which is "fengsel" and "fængsel" respectively.
