D Tractor, page 6 inks — the nitrogen line
The inks for D Tractor page 6, the production line: a can labelled 3-D PRINTED in a tray, a pipe stencilled NITROGEN, a banded hose swinging in over the belt and a blue cup filling under the nozzle. PFFFTT.
Photographed along the diagonal of the page so three panels stack away from the reader, with the PFFFTT lettering nearest the lens and the machinery receding behind it.
Black ink on white, lightly warmed by the lamp. Blue tape at the top edge.
Pen line with solid brush blacks, and the whole page still carrying its pencil underdrawing — the hatching on the hopper and the tread of the belt are drawn rather than painted.
Photograph of the original inks, pen and brush on paper.
Unsigned — a detail of a page in progress.
