The Brothers MacKenzie



Thumbnails from a cowboy story for Outlaw Territory written by Pete Doree. I hate drawing hats and horses...

are these the thumbnails you send to the editor, or just for your own use? i can't figure out how detailed to these so i end up drawing what is usually labeled "layouts". any tips?

These are just for my benefit. They're just detailed enough so I know what photo ref to shoot if I need too and where to put the lettering.
I don't usually show an editor pencils even these days, unless they ask for them.

ah, all right. thanks! that was quick =)

p.s. the fact that you place your own lettering doesn't seem get noticed much, but i'd say it's a very important thing, and not very often (as far as i know).

cheers!
