Weekly 2024.02.02: Best Buds and a Script
Hey everyone,
Before I get into what I’ve been working on, a quick poll! I’m thinking of doing a doodle to celebrate Palentine’s Day. Who are the best fictional buds for me to illustrate? Ok, Palpatine has no friends, but I mean Palpatine’s Day!
Look forward to seeing that in a couple weeks.
Alrighty, so what’ve I been working on?
Graphic Short Story
This past week, I finished drafting a script for my graphic short story!
Up next, refining the script and working on character designs. After that thumbnail sketching for all the panels and page layouts, and then inking, coloring, and lettering. And then seeing if anyone wants to publish it?
I wonder if having published a graphic novel online is a problem for publishers the way it is for The New Yorker and Washington Post. Seemingly not, since I know Nimona, by ND Stevenson, was online before it became a book?
Art
Did a bit of plein air urban sketching this week, and a lot of messing with video editing software, abandoning several, and finally finding one that works well for me, to make clips of the works in progress for the ‘gram.
Here’s a quick one:
And a pic of a couple others I did that day:
Next Week
Next week, look for some character sketches for my new graphic short story.
Till next time-
