I have several more drawings which I have finished but have not had time to scan yet.  I've been jumping around in my story, illustrating the parts I know best or am pretty sure I won't change.  

     Concerning these two panels, I am happy with the one on the left but the unfinished one on the right is already giving me problems.  Mr. Doubus (my current name for the main character) is supposed to be making a general gesture as he speaks about his facility.  However, right now he just seems to be examining his own hand.  Maybe it won't look like he's just examining his hand when I finish the rest of it, but I am not so sure.          

 

  

     These are the first five panels of the story.  Right now my plan is to have four panels on each page.  I have decided to do most of the panels with graphite and white colored pencil on brown paper.  This working method is relatively fast and produces an aesthetic I am relatively pleased with.  I have not decided whether I want to keep them this way.  In an ideal world I would probably print them all out on watercolor paper and add color to them.  However, I have experimented with this technique a little and there are a number of complications, most notably time investment.  Right now I am looking for critique and ideas about the drawing, the format, the possibility of color, etc.  

 

These are the first two pages of the graphic story I am composing.  They aren't done yet, as you can no doubt tell by the blank white spaces in the sky.  The setting is an ambiguous city sometime in the future.  In this city, impressive things have been accomplished through science (such as instant teleportation), but there is a dark side both to these accomplishments and to the city itself.  I am trying to convey both these aspects of the story in this piece.  I'm not certain whether I'm succeeding. (???)  
      

"Big Catch"  (Watercolor and ink)

I did this piece over the summer.  It's based off an old nautical illustration of a fisherman with some kind of large ocean fish.  I decided to replace the fish with a crazy sea monster.  I'm fairly happy with it, though I think there are some problems with the man's body proportions and I'm not quite sure how I feel about the lighting and perspective.
