Hey, Steemit! I’m back from the Dark Pinup salt mines and the book is done […although, there was a few last minute calls and changes to the cover proof today, so maybe not “done”, done]. I had another major roadblock to make this next Trail by Comics post. The fundamentals series had to end with colors, which I no absolutely nothing about. I struggled through this like you cannot believe! @vermillionfox gave me one-on-one lessons [lucky] just to get to the point I’d have artwork for this week’s contest.

Okay, before we move on to the winners, let’s go through the formatilities. We have a very active Trial by Comics Discord channel. Announcements, #trialbycomics post promotion, general art post promotion, theme suggestions. Join us and keep the thriving comics and art community here on Steemit alive. Thank you to @bryan-imoff and @w0olf for tirelessly working to moderate the Trial by Comics Discord channel. Without further adieu, here are the winners of “Inks”!

First place, this week, goes to @cartoonistpandan for his incredible entry of The Darkness! I have the fondest memories of this comic when I was in my late teens. I bought The Darkness every month and held Marc Silvestri in almost as high regard as Todd McFarlane. @cartoonistpandan’s inks on this artwork summarize everything I love […and have ever loved] about a guy obsessed with comics through his child and adulthood. Awesome choice, and incredible work. 25.000 STEEM DOLLARS to you.

Second place goes to @sissyjill for her entry, “My entry for the art contest, "Trial by Comics”. I really loved this entry for it’s perfectly executed composition using the black inks to contrast the subject. Is this an original character, @sillyjill? I’m working on a few comic projects of my own and your choices in this work have inspired a few pages for me. Congratulations! 10.000 SBD to you.

Third place goes to @wanaf for his entry “Trial By Comics : Desert Sniper Inked”. I love the lose inked lines and composition for this, and as I’ve said a dozen times, progress photos mean so much to me and many of those other followers of Trial by Comics! This was a

Here are some of the other entries from incredible Steemit comic artists that all deserve a follow if you’re looking to fill your feed with brilliant creators!
