some of my oc's for the #originalcharacter hashtag nipples and bob from some old comics, backpack and teardrop from my books Light and Lost and my upcoming 3rd book, Limbo.

something i always discuss in my workshops is the idea of space is time in comics to relate it to something we're more familiar with, in cinematic language a page is a 'scene' and each panel is a 'shot'. Good panelling is like good editing. https://t.co/gpMIMqGJ06

To me, panelling has always been a balancing act I've always been obsessed with the more panels you put on a page, the more moments can be shown, but also they take from one another, leaving you less space to draw it's a balance of pacing, composition, and proper storytelling

to me good panelling is invisible but there are so many ways for panelling to enhance your'e storytelling examples the set-up punchlines of a 3 panel strip how a strict 4 panel grid sets up a rhythmn/balance how more panels feels like more time

panelling for me is also reflective of style my favorite comic creators, Jason, strictly adheres to panel grids whether 4,6,8, or 9 panel grids his dedication to this oftentimes allows his style swerves where the significant moment/panel is given the same weight as the mundane
