How to Transform a Comic Book Page in 8 Simple Steps!

by 05.11.2025

My video art diary of my work for my independent comic book, The Lucent. This comic book art is from my upcoming book, Fractured Mind. In it, I’m coloring a page of Rod Luper’s art, showing step by step how I go about bring a the art to life. From the flats and shadow, to the primary and secondary light sources, and everything in between. I hope to show that with some color theory and rendering skills under your belt, anyone can color comics.

My name is Michael Bancroft and I’m an independent comic book writer and artist. If you’re a fan of the indies, or comic books in general, especially European and French-style Bande Desinnée, then please check out my channel. I want to make more original content based on my own work, so if you’re interested in this kind of video, please hit like, subscribe, and leave a comment.
