Val

Finally! The winning script of my competition I held WAY back in June '09, is revealed here, drawn by me. Written by Walter Ostlie, creator of the comic delivered via web, Cubicles.

Wally gets all four pages of original art by me. It'll be out in the post this week, Wally! You've been so very very patient. :o)

Enjoy!

Scriptwriting is new to me

Ever since Celadore, I've discovered the benefits of scripting. Before that, I did mostly strip gags that didn't need it, or 24 hour comics that were fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants stuff.

Now, for my new comic idea I've been developing, I'm working out six 22 page 'issues' before I even hit the art boards. Good thing too, 'cos halfway through issue 5, I had to scrap everything and start again. Is this normal? Argh! Oh well. Better than releasing stuff with giant gaps in logic, right? Sigh.

So it's back to the drawing board, and I haven't even made it to the drawing board yet.

Except for this one piece with the main characters, which at least hasn't changed.
