ComicCraft#10 - Drafting Baldy#27 (Part 1)steemCreated with Sketch.

in comic •  7 years ago  (edited)


Hey, guys! As promised, I'm giving you a breakdown of how I did "Comic Baldy#27" :)

Throughout the 11 hours I spent making the comic, I took 111 screenshots of my progress. I can't put the whole process in here today!

Today I'm just gonna show just the first part of my draft! :D


Drafting


So I drag out my previous drafts of the comic story board into the picture. Yess, I've got my reference! :)




I could follow the exact story board above, but I think I wanna be creative!



I think I wanna play with the perspectives over here!
I place the 2 girls in the foreground, walking away from the mad man :P

Okay, time to draft the next few panels:



Yup, there's that girl behind Baldy.

Uhm, but what do I want her to do now?:



Let's draft a few copies of her:



Whoa, freaking hell!

The 3rd picture of her!
Her little skirt, the hair!

I gotta choose that! :P



Hmm, I can adjust some things... .



Whoopsie, I moved all the panels without thinking too much about it!

But I'm glad I gave the 2 girls their torsos.



Coz I want to make 4 panels ...

Like this :D!


 

Final Note

Oh, whoa, so much time has passed! That's all I can show you of my comic crafting process for the day!

For the above drafting and adjustments, spent my time from about 1:10 PM to 2:19 PM -- which is veeery long in hindsight! It makes me wonder what I should be doing different, when I watch a YouTube video (like this!), where the artists do their 2 page drafts. What I spend 60 minutes on, they spend literally 3 minutes doing! T.T

I think I got quite a bit more studying to do! ":D

Hope you've enjoyed my post! See ya next time :)

That's a lot of work! Salute!

Ahaha, thanks :) Maybe too much for a draft! The one thing I learned from this behind-the-scene post, is that I could/should have limited my drafting time to like 10 minutes ":D ":D ":D

Hahaha, yeah we live and we learn.

I really like seeing how other comic book makers go through their layouts. thanks for posting this!

Haha, thanks! I myself wish to see how others make their comics :)

Hey! Very cool to see your creation process. Seems like a lot of work. I'm pretty sure you'll just get better and faster as you do more and more!

Haha, yes, yes, thanks! I should think I'll get better >P< Writing this post itself was helpful!

2 hours of me writing this post, was 2 hours staring at my inefficient drafting process! Was a good reflection for me! x"D

Thanks! :)

Haha, thanks! It is a lot of work, isn't it! Can't believe I thought it'd be easy, before! >P<
