Printing In Progress

Last of the Chickenheads is currently being printed. I found a really good local company called Redlin Print that have sorted me out a very competitive price on a 50 page black and white A5 comic with colour covers, printed on silk paper. I'm getting two hundred copies printed.

Although the comic was originally in colour the price for a colour run was not practical for such a large number of pages. So I've spent alot of time carefully tweaking the colour layers as greyscales, changing opacities and contrast etc, plus redoing the lettering and sound effects. It's not just a straight greyscale version of the the original source, and actually looks rather classy in a 'retro' kind of a way.

I'll be charging £2.50 for it, and will sell it from this website, as well as trying to sell some through Ace.

Watch this space!
