The effects are incredible. Are they scraping the surface to rough it up for that texture? The Sandstorm is strong, but the figurework and layouts are just as incredible.
That page is a combination of textures done with paper towel, of course dry brush, and lastly single edge razor blade to scrape out the skipping white lines. All at my attempt to replicate a sandstorm.
Love the clever analog techniques used to create these effects in comic art. I really think this page was masterfully done and seeing it in hand really gives you a glimpse into the craft you used to create it. I just bought Empty Quarter and will be giving it a read this week!
Just know that that book was printed pretty badly, as were other one-shots Marvel did at the time printed on bad paper where the blacks are faded causing color to overwhelm sometimes.
