This is the first portion of a new comic, called for now “New works of Basil Hallwart”. It’s a story that comes from The Portrait of Dorian Gray, although it strays away from its origin as time in the tale passes by. I’d say this first page is like 20% of the full story.
These are some sketches, and panels discarded while I was searching for a suitable style for the comic. I’ve been trying different things to get the tone right, specially with the text layout and character design. I had in mind a particular way of linking text to pictures in this case, which may be a step closer to the reading of an illustrated tale.
I hope it looks interesting so far!
Note: attachment is a larger version of the comic page.
Thanks!
Juan.
