The development of Humanised.com (ambitious comic project)

Today i wanted to concentrate on panel arrangements and use the script my Dad has written for the story so far to get some feeling for action and movement. The last thing i want to have is beautifully detailed backdrops and set pieces and just static stiff characters and poses. This world needs to show richness of life.

i can going to ask my Dad nicely if i can put up the whole draft script so you can understand a bit more about this whole universe and its existence (no idea for characters names as i have now reason for Annabelle).
Roughs make it a whole lot easier to declare who will stay and who will go


Yes her eye is sightly bigger than her other but i am still  working out her final design, and for that matter the whole cast. I have noticed a bit of  Katsuhiro Otomo influence in the way i do people recently especially from the sides and chins. 

Evaluating what i have done today i think the next step is too get started on the splash page and try and  polish up the finish on this page ready for Leeds thought bubble next weekend . 

Until next post Laters ;)

Being a very bust week again so not much development on the Humanised.com comic I am afraid for reasons unexplanatory *cough* Minecraft. (And Thought Bubble comic convention in Leeds is next Saturday). But i did get time to try out a little experiment i have been inspired to try after speaking with one of my old university mentors two days ago. 




Essentially i took a small article piece i thought sounded interesting enough to create a crazy illustration that would be semi related to the text just like with my final major project in uni where i took Shakespeare’s quotes and created visuals that juxtaposed a lot of fantasy and reality in them while keeping true to the original material link.





Its kind of obscure because there’s a lot of hidden jokes influences and the subject is not exactly described in the composition or scene. I sad it was just a test  i might start doing this more often to gain more outsider interest and increase my awareness of the current world around me.  


End this post with a little Andrew W.K  Get Ready to Die doodle .that would be the most gruesome fun circus EVER.   


Until next Post thing LATERS ; )

Humanse.com more development on splash pages.


Each individual panel is going to have a lot of references to memes and website stuff to make it seem like an extremely busy universe which the web is. working on the other panels tomorrow and maybe some action, because I like animation for a reason people. 



yeah i would like a Couple of Cold ones and some errors in spelling 

until next post LATERS and peace ; )

Hello again YES I am back with some reasonable development on the humanised.com project me and my dad want to make in to a successful comic series .sorry for not updating i have been busy with other things and projects.

The plan we have for the next three weeks now is too get a massive splash page inked to show at a comic convention I am going to in Leeds called Thought bubble where there will be a lot of indie comic and industry people. Be a great way to get feed back and guidance.
The story and geeky jokes my dads been writing up the last two weeks really has influenced the way I will visually tell the story.

I hope to get the rough script up for the comic on here if my dad allows me. “Because a magician never relives his secrets. Especially when his not too sure of it himself” (very obscure Disney cartoon quote)



Right So far we have a female framer protagonist, Dragon dressed in cat ears, kidnapped Prince, Alien dressed a bit like  Han Solo thing, two stylized chicks. 
And three bad dictators named after big brands ..........What could possibly go wrong here. 


My art for this project still need work I want this to a milestone that defines my imagination and how broad it is.



I spend way too much time thinking about finer details then the important elements in illustration, but that’s how I roll.




A lot of focus has been put in to the layouts and thumbnails since I have some written material to work off now.



Until next blog post LATERS  ; )

It’s being a whole week of peace with out my sister since she moved on to her new life in as a university student in York. I have done at lot of drawing in the last few days and guess what its linked to yet more ideas for comics and things I want to make a reality. It all started after I saw one of my DA mates post up a pony version of twitter he called Chit Chat. I being the brony I am wanted to do my own interpretation of his design because I liked the idea already of ponifying existing things which makes ponies awesome 



But then as I went out for my daily afternoon walk that Tuesday I suddenly thought “wait a minute what if she was human and facebook was her mate that could take the identity of anyone”. “And Safari was a young annoying adventurer that harassed Twitter and Google was the dictator because he was so big and the city was made up of the web and…” that was it I was sold and did rough character designs to what my mind had originally pictured including lots of other sites.



Wow Flickr needs to take a chill pill seriously

i need to do more character turnaround sheets in the future 


Better then been rick rolled


I thought of making it an Ask blog at one point or a cartoon of some sort. I was in a pickle liked what I saw but had no idea where to turn or do with them I decided to show my dad the concepts and sketches I had put together so far and he said “a comic where we collab on writing and Art”.  


I prefer to have a female heroine for the story then male to challenge myself since i enjoy drawing cute girls 


Busy Busy is the nature of the interwebs folks




In the last three days I have been coming up with new character designs and background ideas while he has been formulating a plot reason and for the internet existing as a physical thing his explained in detail to me what he envisions but it’s a little too complicated to explain and I do not want to be here writing this post  for hours. Lets just say a lot of his geeky sifi knowledge will be implemented in to the comic.

Just today my Dad gave me the idea of Norton and MacAfee being the Law police of the web but their sort of like buddy cops drawn in a 1920s style   

This project seems very ambitious especially with my obsession for small details which could slow us down but i feel passionate about doing this and look forward to exploring the internet though doing this already gathering up website names and videos to use in the BGs    



Keep you updated on the process regularly  

until next Post LATERs ;)
