We’re getting closer and closer to the goal date of the “Beach Babes” comic going live. It is my first time drawing a comic and my first time writing a story. It is very scary at a times and I’ve found many artists feel this way but it is also freeing and something I feel I can be proud of once I put it out into the world.
There’s definitely a lot of learning as the process continues. As an illustration graduate I’m unlearning things as far as not showing so much communication In a single image but using comic panels in a sequential nature to tell the story. Focus on the many, not the singular. So here is a look at a couple of panels before color is added. Here we have Zoe and Reese getting out of the car on the left and Liam getting out of the car on the right. I wonder what event they’re heading to dressed this way. This is an example of simply paneling to introduce characters prior to plot as we are going to stretch the story out so you as a viewer have something to read each week. I apologize as you’re probably used to “binging” in most streaming services. Gone is the idea of ‘waiting’ and patience for a slow burn but I promise you there’s more to come!
