comic book art by student

Overview

Draw, letter, and ink three pages of comics continuity from a panel-by-panel full script. Stick to the dialog and captions, but feel free to visually interpret and modernize. Enhance with research and your unique point-of-view. Each development phase needs instructor sign-off before continuing to the next.
