The Curse of the Eighth Page
It happens every time. I get stuck on page 8. It’s a lucky number in Chinese culture, but it’s the comic killer number for me. I don’t know how many projects have been stalled and ultimately stopped cold on page 8. Two reasons this time: work commitments really limited my drawing time last week combined with just general struggle to draw mighty reptilian creatures. I don’t think I’ve really tried and do a finished giant lizard picture since I was in third grade. Seriously!
I’m not crazy about this page, but I’m really trying stick with the keep-on-keeping-on philosophy so I can keep this project moving with some momentum. Next up – #9.Sunday, June 16, 2013 - 10:16 PM (Eastern Daylight Time)
Page 7–Angry Angry Hippos
The original draft of my script did not envision any hippos, but my friend and initial script reviewer Stephen Cartisano really wanted a sequence involving hippos in place of what I had planned. Because I’m not terribly skilled with drawing animals I figured it was safest to limit my biodiversity on the project, but hippos are so bizarre looking that I had to give it a go!
