Character developing




For the past few years I have been working on outlining a plotline that I originally intended to be a novel however more and more I'm thinking it could work as a graphic novel. Recently I've just being playing around with the idea. I've taken out a few books, the best one I've looked at yet is This One Summer (pictured below). I loved how it stuck to a really simple palette to tell a story. 


As far as creating my own characters, I've stuck to playing around with aesthetics and how a superhero crime fighter would move (yes it did involve watching some martial arts videos and a binge watching of batman films). 




Most of it's been donein biro, just for rough rather than spending ages on something at this stage, this week I used ink for the first time ever which I got pretty excited over, I really felt like it worked for my character.
