Lucy and Pigasso. A comic book... sort of...
-
Hey all,
Last week I took @Jake-Parker 's course Drawing comics. So I decided to challenge myself and to start making one. Every day I will make and post one new illustration/panel and at the end of the week - the whole page. Hope you will like it. Now is day 3 to me already, so here are all images so far.Best wishes to all

These are pretty cool!
One small comment (please ignore if I've misunderstood or if it was done intentionally because I don't know the story after this!)In the Day 3 comic, I'm assuming panel 2 is the top right one and that the red needle is the hour hand and the other one is the minute hand. In that case, it would be better to draw the clock more accurately.
- Panel 2 shows the time as 2:05
- Panel 3 shows the time as 1:05 (but the hour needle is dead in the center of the 12 and 3. It should be 1/3 of the way towards the 12). The time should also be more than what is seen in Panel 2 (again, please ignore if it's part of the story)
- Panel 3 shows the time as just before 3:00 but the minute had is already past the 12 mark.
The time shown in the clock in Day 2 could also made in sync with Day 3.
Looking forward to see how the story unfolds. Pigasso is super cute!

@Neha-Rawat Thank you for the nice and helpful critique, I really messed that clock! now I will post the next one . It's pretty simple today.

Day 5

@Neha-Rawat I think the red hand is usually the second hand? The girl is watching each second tick by and feeling it like an eternity. So the two black hands don't move because it's only been a few seconds.
-
@neschof @Dima-Eichhorn Ah! Of course! That makes sense! Lol. I think I got confused because it was the shorter hand.

Day 6

Oh, I remember those days well, when I was a kid and the seconds just wouldn't move fast enough, no matter what I tried. Only difference is that we didn't have a backyard that my mother could send me to... Oh, and that I didn't have a pet pig... Ah, and that I'm not a girl... But other than that it was definitely the same.
Lovely drawings, @Dima-Eichhorn

@Casual-T Hi, thank you for the nice and funny comment and for the support. I am really glad you like my drawings. And I am sorry that you didn't have a backyard. Thats sucks really. I had a front yard and I spend all my free time there, because there was just nothing to do inside. Happy weekend and thank you again. Do you have Instagram to follow?

Day 7, Day off. See you again tomorrow!

Hey @Dima-Eichhorn... Thanks for asking. Yes, I do have an Instagram (for my photography stuff), but have all but given up on social media; it's too noisy, too self indulgent. It is true, there are gems to be unearthed (that's how I discovered SVS), but in general it is nothing more than a 24/7 popularity contest. And I have no idea how to make it work. Oh well, this is a rabbit hole that goes pretty deep, so let me stop here... I guess I'm just an old-school fool who wishes himself back to days of simpler living... Ha!
As for the back/front yard situation. Oddly enough I went from not having either as a kid, living in the city, to not having either as an adult, living in the city. Go figure! Mrs. Casual and I have been contemplating moving to quieter shores, for sometime now. Considering the somewhat unusual situation the world currently finds itself in, this might just be the last bit of convincing we need to give the big city a last hug and kiss, and get the hell outta Dodge.
Be that as it may... I'm looking forward to seeing more of Lucy & Pigasso!!

@Casual-T
Yes, the social media is nonstop contest. Actually, when I made my Instagram I was very discouraged. Nobody liked my posts. Now, few years later, I don't care anymore. I grown up. But still keep posting.
I am a country kid, but as a young adult I moved to the city. It was great time. Now I am so happy to have a yard and peace again. Wish you a great week and now I will post my next image. -
