Here's some photos showing the process for my Intercorstal-ised version of the iconic first page of Judge Dredd: America. They're running back-to-front, from my finished image through the various iterations ad finishing on Colin MacNeil's incredible original (the scan of which I've nicked from here:

If for some baffling reason you've not read America, you can buy the collected edition
here or alternatively it's only £1.99 as part of Hachette's

Blocking out the black areas. Picked this up from a tip by Henry Flint. For me, it makes the page feel half-done from the start, so less of a scary empty page. Also, it helps start the page balancing. |

Here, in the first stage, I've just blocked out the major shapes. If I'd spent any time working through details here I'd never have made my way back. |
