BoYo

Sorry to interupt the 909 drafts. I ran across this really old comic I made when I was about 12-14. It's a pencil drawing I did for my first comic idea, called BoYo. This comic doesn't represent BoYo very well. I did this at the height of my Bill Waterson obsession. He did a couple Calvin & Hobbes where he would parody a serious comic style, then in the last frame switch back to his style. That's basically all I did, but just did it in comic book novel style. If I recall right, I stole the more realistic character designs from a computer game booklet.
I remember drawing this as a kid, putting the pencil to paper, and thinking how cool it would be to be like Bill Watterson and have thousands of people see my comic. Back then I would have never have guessed that now with the help of the Internet, thousands of people can now completely ignore my comic in digital form. Coool.
I should return to the 909 drafts and Crystal's Dream stuff shortly.
Did you steal both the design and the actual pictures from a comic or was your drawing this good when you were ~13?Jesse5 months ago#2578reply

I drew every line there. I think I'm better now. No, really. I only have 30 minutes to an hour to write and draw a comic every night. So I draw stick figures and quick drafts. If, I could somehow do this for a living, I'd do a lot more detailed stuff like this. But I remember this BoYo pencil took me several hours over two days.swb5 months ago#2581reply
I think you should do a high detailed comic at least once a month. Just something you spend 10-15 minutes on each day. Anonymous5 months ago#2588reply
