I had five pages penciled for today, but only managed to get three finished while there was still good light...
(I've just been taking pictures of these... I do have a scanner they'd fit on, but it's about 20 years old and now any time I scan something there's a white line down one side....)
If you're just joining this Journey, you might want to head on over to Day One and once you've read to the bottom, click on "Newer Post" on the left, just below the comments.
I kind of started these yesterday... but didn't finish them up until today...

I swear that's the end of the "Introduction"...
Sort of...
I really did just come up with this daft idea on Sunday...
Initially I thought I'd do this just one page at a time...
Right in my sketchbook, starting when I left off at the end of October...
I still really like the idea of having done it in my sketchbook, but I VERY QUICKLY realized there would be certain logistical problems with doing so and had to make adjustments...
Also, after doing this first page, I decided it would probably be a better idea if I actually plotted out - at the very least - the day's pages...
And so I did that in my BIG sketchbook.
And then started doing them on individual pages... which went MUCH quicker...
Starting with Day Two, I began typing the dialogue into the computer, because I had all sorts of ideas, but wasn't initially sure where to put them in the overall dialogue... and once they were in order, I printed it off and tried to figure out page and panel breakdowns from there...
thought the second batch of eight pages were worked out for Day Two, I only got four of them finished.
All of the pages so far.
Day Two, y'all.
(not quite 8 pages)
When you suddenly realize, halfway through inking the first day's pages, that your main characters are subjects of Andy Warhol paintings...
Oh no! What's happened to the Banana and the Can!? Find out tomorrow... or.. maybe later today!?
As hinted at in the previous post... I started a new thing...
I should probably just let the comics tell the story (since so much of these first days is... well.. explaining the whole thing...)
