    Good progress shots of 3 or more.
    The drawing can be sharpened and notes can be added to really be able to use as an SI piece by itself. This will help your workload lessen because you won't need as many finished pieces. But only if you are really clear about your idea, medium, and exactly what you are trying to do.
    Your comment that it is "just for fun" is not enough, we need art-speak.
    Next time add your MPI even with the process shot, on the actual art. Either use Markup on your phone with text or do it in your sketchbook small, like the one you have, with words describing your intent. You can even use a highlighter.
    Maybe refer to your inspiration artist, color choices for the palette, intention (what is it you want the viewer to feel: whimsy? surprise? are the comics alive on inanimate objects? etc.
    Remember to use stronger colors going forward, maybe employ the markers to speed up your process, and vary your line quality in the end.
    Good job Blaise :) I look forward to seeing the finished piece!

SI #2 Finished!

Image
  I decided to color the comic on the door with  just brown colors because of the weird position of the door knob. I suppose it works because it doesn’t distract too much from the guy kicking the door open. Though I still find myself looking at the first picture of the comic before looking at the guy which is interesting. Next I will work on the coffee mug featuring more interaction between the characters. Then I will head towards the climax of the story be introducing the city and kiwis! Materials: pencil, sharpie, colored pencils Process: made an outline with pencil, then went over with sharpie, then colored everything Ideas: my idea was to present an angry dude breaking through a door with a comic on the door to explain why he is angry. I colored the comic brown to hopefully make the door knob look better. I used lots of dots for shading and that ended up looking ok

SI #6 the beginning of doom!

Image
 Materials: pencil, colored markers, colored pencils Processes: First I sketched an outline with pencil. Then I filled in with colored markers. Then I went over the marker with colored pencils to add detail. I added splotches of green and red to hint at the transition from no color palette to mostly all reds and greens. Ideas: This piece is a transition from the normal to the apocalypse. The kiwi’s beak sticking out of the hood hints at a kiwi inside. I plan to use a different color palette and tone for future pieces. I’m tired of the simple, I’m ready to shake things up a bit.

SI #3 tada!

Image
Materials: markers, colored pencils Processes: First I drew an outline with pencil. I then colored in the hands, coffee cup, shirt, and comic. I erased the pencil as I went in order to not smudge the pencil marks with marker. The colored pencil was used over the marker to add shadows and detail. Ideas: My idea at first was to draw a coffee cup on a flat surface depicting Scadoosh (long haired guy) yet again pranking Tom (crazy yellow hair guy). I ended up drawing the coffee cup being held in order to add interest and to fit with my question. I changed the comic to just show them being friends to tell the reader that they are friends. The comic now leads up to my next piece. I changed the color of Tom’s shirt to aqua because a red background would have looked weird (also I had no good red marker).
