Have been doing some trial re draws of comic pages I made in the past.
Here's an example of that.
still going with quite a rough sketchy approach but going to attempt to improve the shape composition
and maintain a more constant standard of quality and interest page to page.
This page is probably not quite done. I'm doing a few pages at the same time to work out the approach.
I know heaps of comics exist where its far more about just getting the story across but I don't want to pump out quantity.
I buy comics where I like that drawings and I want looking at the pages for more than a few seconds to be satisfying and carry enough interest to warrant that.

Finished off another group of Football player portraits which will do for this series for now.
did 33 portraits in the set. Didn't include them all in the final composition ill include here because of them not featuring in games enough this season..

Here's the big composite of the portraits
the size of the heads based on the players importance during the season.
not super planned out, just had fun with it
no real purpose to making this particular image besides having followed the football this season and wanting to practice more Male portraits since I tend to draw girls more of the time.

Wanting to do some more Mortal Kombat related stuff to coincide with the upcoming game set to release around September this year.
Thinking about continuing this set and or doing some more concept art oriented type work to see how my skills are in that area.

It's normal that people around you may have a hard time understanding what your'e working towards
They may say stuff at times that unintentonally (hopefully) brings you down.
But life is short and I don't know anyone that's regretted following their dreams
and I do know many stories of people regretting not having followed their dreams.
so easy choice, though difficult journey.
But I believe in you
