spidey4 – Almond Ink

Jerry’s 5th job with me is my 4th solo Spidey and 7th overall. It’s another blueline print-up on Kubert 11X17 2-ply board. This time he sent me my 1st David Finch which I inked with the usual blah-blah and wrapped it up on 3/13/2009…I was cranking out Jerry’s goods like a machine…only one more to go for now…
