- @beckycloonan I watched Dr. Zhivago on my last flight over the pond. Same flight, different David Lean movie. Love his establishing shots.
(about 9 hours ago) - Bit of early morning inking http://t.co/uZDnNqU2
(about 20 hours ago) - Also I'll often start inking something before I've finished penciling it. I like locking something down I know is working & build from there
