Test comic - Student assignment

I just finished my 2 weeks crash-course in graphic novel design with this 2-page comic strip using my idea and asset. I know it is short and it doesn't make any sense in term of story but I had to make sure the assignment is ready by the tight deadline. The focus of this comic strip was to understand the use of composition and flow. I'm sorry that even though there are only 2 pages, I'm not gonna finish the strip since main lore has not yet been fleshed out. My apology.

Note: This is not the final comic strip, art style and character. I think the story and characters are not ready and need more time for development. 2 years have gone by but it is not enough. Still, I'm gonna put this up anyway for you guys since I haven't post art regularly. Hope you guys like my journey so far. And I'm still working hard on rounding up some writers for the chapters and setting up my patreon .

i love to see story develop your on a good track don't be afraid to take some indications from history, pop culture, mythology, religion, remember its not copying if you change it to a point where it at least looks different but has the same effect or whatnot you could just mix two fundamental things together and create something new

DatCakeIzEhPai responds:

I'm already ahead of that. Drawing most inspiration from Lovecraft and combining it with a stylized cartoony and graphical art to tell a drama action story. The artstyle that I have been gravitating toward lately are Gigantic and Invisible .inc. Using my previous artstyle, I'm diving much more into the artstyle to create a distinctive look for the strip. It has to look professional, clean and over the top.

Looks cool, especially for a test!

DatCakeIzEhPai responds:

Thank you. This is my first comic strip I did on digital, helped me figure out where I'm at and where to build my foundation from there.
