UPA Studio Mode
For the week of 6/26-7/1 of Sally Forth strips writer Francesco Marciuliano asked for the first panel in each strip to be drawn in “a different style, almost a playful early 60’s UPA studio mode or as in the short about rats included in the “Ratatouille” dvd.”
To show you the difference, here’s how I normally draw the Forth car.
And here’s how it played out in that week’s worth of strips.
Unabashed plug time!

Sally Forth – Rollercoaster
As some of you may have noticed, The title panels of this week’s worth of dailies had a little side story going on all of it’s own.
Here it is in its entirety.

Sally Forth – Hometown Reference
When a scene in Sally Forth calls for a specific locale (grocery store, movie theater, etcetera) I’ll often use spots around my hometown of Minneapolis for reference. Take the following…
Excerpt from Francesco Marciuliano’s script for 9/22/2016.
Scene: Exterior. Sidewalk. Right Outside Comic Book Store. Hilary and Faye exit the comic book store. Each has a bag showing a comic book purchase.
For the comic book shop I chose Comic Book College.
It holds a little nostalgia for me as it used to be called Comic City back in the day (and was located one store down from where it is now). For those interested in the history, check out the College of Comic Book Knowledge.
The two guys approaching the comic book store in the first panel are fellow Joe Kubert School classmates Brian Bilter and Mark McMurray.
They’ve snuck into the strip before – it usually happens when I’m not paying close enough attention.
Mark even went so far as to crash a Flash Gordon strip I did back in the day (when he had longer hair).
