Step By Step Guide To A Finished Comic Book Page

Copper is an excellent on-line web comic, and its creator, Kazu Kibuishi, has been gracious enough to share the steps he takes to sketch, pencil, ink and scan each of his pages before uploading it to the web for everyone to enjoy. This is a well written, informative tutorial that gives a good idea of how the process works.

LINK to the step-by-step tutorial, and the homepage for the webcomic can be found HERE.
