Paul Pope’s Battling Boy by David Zissou / Original illustration process
The background title design borrowed from First Second’s Battling Boy poster. This is my first time playing with animation and it’ll be repurposed for the series of giveaways I’m doing for First Second on the Paul Pope tumblr, DestroyComics.
Battling Boy is fantastic!
Paul Pope’s Battling Boy by David Zissou. Inspired by my favorite panel from the book.
You know those tweezers included with swiss army knives? You can dip them in ink and draw with them like a nib or ruling pen.

Each color animation is related to the Pokemon’s personality or type; a Chameleon-esque color change for the ‘Saurs; flickering fire for the Chars; and most bodacious party beat for Squirtle & co.
You can get prints here; or buy the originals here. If you dig this, feel free to request that I start working on the next starter set or commission me to draw your favorite pokemon.

Taken and colored from a screencap of the masked lines of this illustration I did of Abe Sapien last month. I think it’s a cool effect.
