For my final major project I decided to make my own little comic book. So my final outcomes would be the three characters a front cover for the comic and a double page spread containing a comic strip and an advert.
On the right you should see the three characters that I designed. My characters have a mixture of styles in them. I started with hand drawing each character and then scanning them into the computer and then on photoshop adding the colours and textures you see in each character. Coming up with each design I wanted to keep them simple and yet have there own distinct feel to them. I feel and think that I have achieved this goal as the all look different and are styled slightly different but still keeping them in the same style.
After my characters were designed I was then ready to start making my comic book strip. I wanted my story line for the strip to be really simple and nothing to complicated to do. The storey I went with for my comic book strip was a bank robbery. This fitted in nicely with the type of characters I designed I also designed the character around this basic idea for the comic book strip.
After i'd completed my comic strip I then went to go and make an advert to go along side my comic strip. I made the advert relevant to the comic that i'd made.
Here is the front cover for my comic book. I made it have a mixture of digital and non digital media. The reason for calling my comic book the adventures of dave is because most comics with super heroes in them are all like the adventures of spiderman, superman or some other variation of man on the end of a word so I thought i'd be different and go for just a straight name instead of something man.
I hope you like the work I did for my final major project I shall post some more work i've done recently in the coming days.
