Swinging Both Ways - Details & Thumbnails

Story © by Greg Gildersleeve, Artwork © by Mark Stinson...2003. Greg Gildersleeve's notes: "This story is a prequel to a work in progress called HALFWAY HOUSE (TM), in which we will find that our horny centaur doesn't live alone up in them thar woods." "Swinging Both Ways is meant to take a look at the modern day singles scene and turn it on its head. Some men don't care who they go out with, and neither do some women. A good time is a good time, right? Or is it?" "Mark Stinson did an outstanding job of turning my original five page script into a seven-pager with more impact and a sense of mystery. And he draws good horses!" Mark Stinson's notes: "When Greg Gildersleeve let me read his script for this story at one of the CCN's Writer's Workshops, I knew I wanted to draw it. I was a little nervous about sounding pushy...but I figured nothing ventured, nothing gained. Greg happily agreed to let me draw it." "Swinging Both Ways was completed for Show and Tell #2. Greg's original script called for a 5-page story, but some of the images in the story were so large and had so much impact, that the story ended up being a 7-page story." "The story was completed on smooth bristol, using ultra-fine and fine Sharpies for the 'blacks' and Primacolor cool gray markers for the 'grays.' The story took me about 3 weeks to finish..."
