Looking back at these pages, I was completely out of control with my ambition for the lighting. Steam, rim lighting, two bright windows. Wild, Jon. I remember at this point of the comic, though, I had completely been bitten by the lighting bug and couldn’t not do it this way.

At this point, I was really doing most of the drawing work in the roughs. Trying to get very very specific drawings down.

But still here in the inks I was making changes. I think the changes in the first panel are very effective, but I’m not so sure about the last panel. I’m still not convinced by Wilfrith’s face. I was under a lot of pressure to finish these really quickly (for me), so workshopping faces over and over and over had to stop at some point.
