The adventure continues…
If all goes according to plan, these next few strips are going to really start testing both my narrative and artistic abilities.
Well, it continues. As always, if you’re new here, the kite storyline begins right here.
In this strip, Adam’s adventure continues, with a (I hope) clearly illustrated path of destruction.
On the technical side, I’m afraid my perspective might be a bit wonky in the first panel… although it’s tough to say, since it’s supposed to be sort of a fish-eye style anyways. Frickin’ perspective still causes me trouble.
Before I go any farther, for those of you that need a refresher on the storyline, please feel free to start at the beginning.
First comic back, and now it’s time to stretch the old “artist description” muscles. To be honest, my primary goal with this comic, was to pick up where the storyline left off, without embarrassing myself too badly. Hopefully I achieved both, but we’ll see.
Aside from that overachiever-level goal, I’d also like to think that this comic represents what I hope will be the new, more narrative focused JP&TM. Not that I’m suggesting that this comic is breaking some sort of narrative ground or anything, but I’m hoping that in the coming weeks, everyone will start to notice a much more cohesive storytelling focus.
On the technical side, I am willing to admit that perhaps I might have fallen back to my old ways and over-rendered the sandcastle slightly, but I’m hoping that’s offset by the flow of the fourth and fifth panels.
Either way, it feels good to be back, even in a slightly reduced capacity (it’s only going to be a comic a week until further notice) and I look forward to continuing to flex my comicing muscles.
