So I am moving forward with my "graphic novel" idea. There will be no text or dialogue. I have some character reference sheets completed and have sketched out the first two "panels" for the first submission. I don't know if everyone is going to "get it" or appreciate it at all, but it will be a nice project for me. I am going to experiment with some different techniques like brushes and textures and really try to push myself. Once I have the first page done, I am going to start telling people where to find it. I'm not expecting a huge following at all, but I think the few people who really appreciate my art will definitely be interested.
And I will be honest and up front about what it is. People will know that it's not a comic, and it will not be updated weekly or really with any kind of predictable frequency. And really...there won't be a recognizable plot at first. But hey, this isn't something I'm trying to make money on. I'm not even trying to gain popularity with it. I just want something to work on to help me improve artistically. This is really going to challenge my skills and I think every artist needs that.
