The Cavalry
RentAThug on March 8, 2008
The Mobile Oppression Patrol hits the scene like they usually do: with substantial automatic weapons fire and little regard for the lives of others.
The gunner in the helicopter is using a light machine gun based on the British Bren gun. I didn't really do all that much actual design work on it, though, since on this page it's only seen from angles that make the details unnecessary.
Also, the second panel took forever to ink because of all of the different planes of the background and foreground. The edges of the helicopter door, the M.O.P. trooper and his gun, the building that Frank and Ivan are on, and the rest of the buildings are all inked with different widths of pen (.08, 0.5, 0.1, and 0.05 respectively).
Thanks for reading, see you next week.

Nicely done. I really like the angle of view in the second panel.
