Graphic Novel

December 11, 2017

This project was REALLY hard for me.  I have NO faith in my drawing. I did procrastinate a little with starting the actually design.  In stead of doing drawings and thinking about what I could do, I spent a lot of time the first week looking at different graphic novels. I have looked at them briefly before, but not with a learning eye.  It really is interesting to see how different people think about them.  The videos were interesting that were posted with the project.  I just couldn’t find the creative part of me to start more then the basic layout. I still don’t really faith in the project. Apparently, I need to work on my drawing skills.  Maybe then I would have more faith in a project like this. I had issues with the my computer not wanting to work with the tablet pressure so everything is the same pen weight and the stroke is heavier then I would like it to be.  I like the overall story and the idea behind the pictures, but REALLY don’t like how it looks in drawing style.  That I don’t think I will ever be able to change.  I just don’t have the talent in drawing. I will attach to here the different steps that I took to get to my final product (at least to the point when I am posting this).

Here are the last 2 steps that I got to as of this post.  I don’t think that my graphic Novel will get past this point before the final class.

One thought on “Graphic Novel

  1. I think you totally nailed this project. The level of exploration you embarked on is wonderful, and sharing what you learned about the process really helped some other people in the class. The documentation is great, the story is great, the drawing is going to develop and evolve over time. Amazing job.
