I mean... who needs symmetry though...

Drawing didn't turn out as expected but... TEXTURES!

I experimented with some of the ink techniques I tried last week and was very lucky they worked live!

for real though it's the first thing i do. this is what my pages look like before i start drawing (although the balloons don't get tails until after i've penciled). it really helps me visualize the space tbh. and then again with paneling (second step)
comic page with literally just dialogue balloons the same page but now with 9 panels
