And the final image! I took good pics and scans before adding the red so i could colour it digitally in the future. But i thought the splash of red would make it look good to frame up and hang on the wall.

An 11 inch by 17 inch traditionally inked comic page of a ninja turtle, the angriest one of all on a moonlit night overlooking NYC

A couple of mates suggested that the pencils may be from V Ken Marion

Travis James @travisjamesinks.bsky.social · 30/01/2026

All the pages were physically inked then digitally cleaned up. Great pieces for me to practice on, and I've been getting direct feedback from Eaton himself as I complete each page which has been a huge help in pushing me to get even better. Eaton's Insta: www.instagram.com/scoteatonart/

Did this piece up the other night. Original is a sketch by Casey Jones. Ive been experimenting a lot more with colour to branch out in addition to my inks and I upgraded my Veikk to an XPPen #wintersoldier #buckybarns #marvel #marvel616 #supersoldier #comics #comicart #comiccolours #inking #inker

So much tight detail, its been a fun challenging piece to do, just hope I'm doing it justice. Im available for commissions for inks colours or pencils myself, if you want to see more of my work it can be found at lnk.bio/travisjamesinks

WIP of the UCSM cover I was penciling up for the heck of it, nearly ready for inks (Will lightbox it and then ink it traditionally) #comics #comicart #nightcrawler #spiderman #uncannyspiderman #kurtwagner #comiccover #clipstudio #fanart #bamf #mutant #marvel616 #krakoa #xmen #timelapseart #fuzzyelf

Penciled the Uncanny Spider-Man and decied it needed a full cover treatment...which meant...corner box! I decided the most fitting thing, would be to modify the sketch by Ed McGuinness that I digitally inked back in the summer. BEHOLD...THE UNCANNY SPIDER-BAMF! #bamf #kurtwagner #nightcrawler

Havnet posted in a while here, sorry folks! Moving into the new house and setting up the studio go me distracted. So here we are, what ive been working on! I dont normally pencil, usually focusing on inks and colours....but the UCSM toy reveal got me inspired! #comics #comicart #uncannyspiderman

Mr Capullo's insta instagram.com/real_greg_capullo From what I understand this set of pages will be in the upcoming Marvel Vs DC Crossover. Fun piece to do, only the second splash page I've attempted. Blueline removal and cleanup done via ClipStudioPaint.

I believe Ferreria did the inks for the actual published version himself. That's five consecutive pages down in order. The goal is still to ink all four issues and see how long it takes me!

@globalnews.ca @cbcnews.ca How about doing a story on how FanExpo Canada this weekend allowed someone peddling AI art into artists alley AND THEN CALLED THE POLICE ON ARTISTS PROTESTING AI "art" being sold.
