Too Much Stuff In One Panel

Panel 4
Close up as Aunt March lets go of the needle, the wood begins to glow, and the needle is drawn into the door.

Seriously, what the hell was I thinking putting this much stuff in a single panel???? I ended up reformatting the entire page. :P

I mocked up my Little Women set in Sketchup!  So far I’ve just set up the kitchen and the living room.  Sketchup’s been a great help – I can export images at any angle I want, then load those images into MangaStudio and use them as a quick reference to help set up perspective lines and such.  It’s been a great help when it comes to keeping things where they’re supposed to be and with elements I tend to have a difficult  time drawing, like windows and doors.

Sweaters

Sometimes I think this graphic novel is mainly an excuse to draw sweaters. Lots and lots of sweaters. Because dear God I love sweaters, and drawing sweaters, and looking at reference photos of sweaters.

SWEATERS.
