Kagemori Press · Edition I
Over one hundred and fifty panels of ink-wash and screentone. Then twenty-five pages of open frames, and the brush is yours.
Told in ink
THE INK DRAGON is a complete manga in over one hundred and fifty panels — a hero’s journey drawn in ink-wash and screentone. Haru grinds ink until something ancient wakes inside it, and together they must face a masked thief wearing his old master’s face to recover the village’s sacred Seal Stone.
One hundred and twenty pages. Sixty-one of them story: 154 panels, and a caption where the drawing wants one — twenty-three pages carry a line, the rest are carried by the brush.

Then the frames open
Bound in behind the story: twenty-five pages of open frames in twenty-two distinct layouts — splash pages, diagonal panels, four-panel action. Printed single-sided to battle bleed-through, so you can press as hard as you like and nothing reaches the drawing behind it. Matte, uncoated stock; pencil and colored pencil work best.

A ten-page set of the open frames waits at kagemoripress.com/premium. It costs nothing. There is a one-minute question there about a heavier, marker-proof spiral edition — answer it, or don’t.
