At the same time, or on separate occasions?

It's different artists from artists and it even varies issues from issues.

Some pages could take a lot longer than other. To give you an better idea, page 18 panel 5 of Spotlight Jazz, the shot of the Iacon city, itself took me at least 8 hours alone, but that's probably one of the most extreme example.

Spotlight Sideswipe took me about 2 months to do total, but I really spent the most time on the first 5 pages trying to figure out the most streamlined process of getting these pages done quicker. The rest of the issue took me probably around 3 weeks.

On average, a transformers page probably takes me between 4-8 hours to go from pencil to ink. At one time, I've done 16 pages in 7 days, so it really all depends on how much time I could spend on drawing table in 24 hours.
