Week 3: 5 Panel Comic Strip

Whole comic
Panel 1 / This was the first sketch so panels relating to this one must be drawn as closely as possible
Panel 2 / Front of the car is drawn wider than panel 1 and subject is sitting too far down in panel. Symbols are used to convey emotion on an inanimate object
Panel 3 / Subject is more squashed than panel one
Panel 4 / closest match to panel 1, symbols again used to convey emotion
Panel 5 / Streaking, particles and dust cloud used to convey movement. Japanese onomatopoeia for revving engine used to convey manga style, My favorite panel to draw and most time consuming
Max is my 1992 MX-5, many people view their cars as inanimate tools but being an old car with many quirks Max is more like an old friend with personality to me. This is why for this task I decided that I wanted to capture his personality and our adventures.

Medium: 2H graphite (rough sketching and refining), 2B (shading), fine liner marker set (lines), A3 paper
