Creating Comics: Cam Smith’s Comic Book Inking Masterclass returns!

By John Freeman on October 24, 2017

Ace inker and comics artist Cam Smith is doing another inking workshop at London’s Orbital Comics in London on Friday 17th November 2017. If you’re interested then book now because places are limited!

“I can’t wait!” Cam tells us. “The last one was a blast!”

Cam’s expertise and experience, which includes work for DC Comics, Marvel and many other publishers make him an indispensable source of knowledge for comic artists of any level – in fact, all levels are welcome to attend the class.

Whether you’re an industry pro or someone who’s never put pen to paper before, what you leave with from this class will definitely be of value to your art.

Pages of blue line comic art will be supplied, so no need to bring your own paper. Orbital do recommend bringing your own art supplies, but pens can be provided for those who don’t have their own.

• Cam Smith’s Comic Book Inking Masterclass 7.00pm (for strict 7.30pm start) Friday 17th November 2017 | Tickets (price £15) from Orbital Comics. NB: No physical tickets will be sent out. Your payment will secure your name on the list at the door. Tickets are non-refundable.
