🔄 Intensity and shift in dominance

Welcome back! This week I’ll walk you through the process of creating the latest page. Here I wanted to show not only the growing intensity of the physical relationship between the two characters, but also a shift in dominance: until now the dog had always led the action while the wolf followed, but in this page the wolf takes control, becoming the dominant one.

✏️ Sketch and perspective

During the sketch phase I had fun experimenting with more extreme angles and viewpoints, pushing the perspective a bit. It may not be perfectly accurate, but I think it succeeds in its goal: adding energy and dynamism to the scene, while making the role reversal between the characters clear.

🖊️ Inking

When moving on to the definition and inking stage, I didn’t make any major changes: the initial draft was already convincing and satisfying.

🎨 Colors and lighting

Flat coloring was simple and straightforward. For the lighting I used softer gradients in some shots, which help emphasize the curves 🍑 and add more depth.

📐 Layout

During the layout phase I decided to remove the foreground sound effects from the last panel, leaving only those in the background. I didn’t want to overload the vignette, preferring a lighter and graphic.If you have any questions about any of the steps, I'd be happy to answer them!
