Rune

Thom Zahler of Love and Capes has started selling a product he calls “Triple Shots.”

The concept is brilliant: you get original inks of the character of your choice, accompanied by a reproduction of the pencils and a digitally-colored finished version, all on a 5.5″ x 17″ piece.

I love, love, LOVE seeing artists’ process so the sketch-to-ink-to-colored-images are magic to me.

I was lucky enough to buy one of the limited number of custom triple shots available the first week. I was torn between asking for a well-known character (like Nightwing) or one of mine. In the end, I couldn’t resist seeing Rune in the style of Love and Capes (which is one of my favorite comics).

I sent Thom this reference for Rune:

And he created this triple shot (the watermarks are only in the preview, not the finished piece):

I ADORE this piece. I framed it and hung it next to my computer desk where it can inspire me daily!
