Artist's Comments

Part Two --> click here

I wanted very badly to break out of whatever comicking phobias that've been crushing me since birth, so I decided to try a modified version of Scott McCloud's 24 hour comic challenge.

Overall, it was quite an experience. The most difficult aspect for me was forgiving my ugly panels enough to move forward - I averaged about 1.5 hours per page, which of course means I "failed" to make the 12 hour mark, but I decided to continue after my time was up because I couldn't stand the idea of leaving yet another comic unfinished. I learned a lot about my process, and upon completion of this project I realized it really could be done. Anybody can draw comics, even me. I feel like I've broken a curse or something.

Seriously, if you haven't already, try doing it yourself. It's always good to push your limits as an artist every once and again, and you might even get to know yourself a little better. And when you're not freaking out about the deadline, it's just plain fun.

PLEASE TELL ME IF THIS FILE IS TOO DAMN LARGE. I have a hard time gauging stuff like that.

The expressions and lines are great. I thorougly enjoyed it. I would attempt it, but I know I'd do a page in 10 hours or something equally ridiculous.

Inked with a brush, I assume?
:iconmattious:
I only see one panel. Am I doing somethign wrong? Why can't I see more?
:iconninamo:
Sai brush pen with a mix of markers and india ink (which the paper didn't take well).

I thought that too, but I'm telling you IT'S POSSIBLE. If a punk-ass like me, who averages one comic page per month, can bust out 9 pages in half a day, anyone can.

It should say "Download for Part One". There's a download button on the left side of the image, where the Favorite feature is located. Hope that made sense, sorry for the confusion.

Your style, mi amore .. the brushwork is lovely. It makes the characters look lively and bouncy. I'm impressed that a person could get such a good comic our of..what did you say, 1.5 hours?

I loved the part .. "You hurt its feelings!" XD Like a giant scary eye in the ceiling needs its feelings tiptoed around.
