Willis Henry Character Play (Part 1)

I am coming to the final push on the making of Willis Henry comic.

Currently I'm playing with the lead character, Willis Henry, to get use to drawing him but also to find a balance and flow of the character. Willis Henry is a fun character to draw.

Street Fighter 4 Full Circle (SideQuest)

I was playing Street Fighter 4 with a friend, and we had alot of fun. It really made me remember highschool. We use to go to the local burger place and play until we had to go home (goodtimes).

While SF 4 is a good game, it feels just like SF2. So I thought it would be fun to redesign Street Fighter 4 as though it came after Street Fighter 3 in the series.

Creating my redesigned version of Street Fighter 4 will be my sidequest for the year.

Making of Willis Henry Comic Part 3: Comic Thumbnail

The next step in the comic making process; after writing the script and thumbnailing the story, was getting the story thumbnails into comic format.

This was the difficult part for me. The past two steps I was familiar with in some ways but I had never done comic layout before and the task required a different form of thought and planning.

Again to aid in the process I made a comic template in photoshop. Dividing the template into sections ( top, middle, bottom, and left, middle, right). Then I cut out each frame of the thumbnail story, panel by panel, and arranged them in the comic format.

The difficult part of arranging the panels into the comic format was in pacing. Trying to end each page with something of interest that leads to the next page. Emphasizing important panel, slowing down, or speeding up story elements, for drama and impact. All of these were concerns.

In total there are about 320 comic pages. By comparing the story thumbnail and the comic thumbnail a direct connection can be seen.

The comic template was made in photoshop to be used, adjusted, or altered.
