I think in future this is my new method of work: write the whole narrative first and just play and have fun with that and make it up as I go along. Because I can always go back and change parts if they don't work. But to gives a better structure to my drawing. I have the words I'm illustrating already. I usually tend to struggle with sequential in the way of I don't know how many panels I should do and I end up making irrelevant ones that are wastes of time. This way its like each verse is a mini poem and I just have to illustrate that. I think in this project my narrative is definitely leading my drawing, but I like it. It's a lot less stressful.
I planned out my pages. I've been trying to have some pages have multiple verses in to cut down the amount of work but I've still ended up with a massive workload. But since I've been enjoying the drawing so much, I've been working way faster than usual and I've almost completed it. I just have 4 double spreads left to go. My print slot is on thursday. So by Thursday I need a cover ready. Since my comic is so many pages I'm going to print in black and white because it would be a big investment to print in colour. But I'll do colour covers to catch the eye of customers.
