Happy New Year!

Considering how long it's been, you'd be forgiven for expecting some sort of art dump, unfortunately you'll get no such satisfaction.

What I have here are is a failed page from Jupiter Jonah. After working on this on and off for a while I decided it just wasn't coming together. The process was far too involved and laborious, and I went from being excited about it to quickly realising it was a major pain. I started over using a more traditional pen and ink approach on paper, then scanning that in and coloring and I think that's what I'm going to stick with.

Below you'll find the initial sketch of the failed page, and failed page itself. Stupid failed page.

The news of the day is that Jonah isn't really my main focus at the moment, as I'm working on something with another Nigerian creator, hopefully, sooner rather than later I'll be able to share, but in the mean time; 


Layout Page


Just not workin'.

Happy New Year to you too!
The "failed" page looks nice, but I can see how it would be overwhelming to make every page like that.

Looking forward to seeing the new project!
