I was really concerned about showing the comic to others in the class, It's really quite a personal thing and felt that I may have executed it in a lacklustre way. I was really surprised by just how positive the feedback I got was, with one person finding it necessary to say "James has a heart". I take this to mean that the emotional themes reached them, rather than my class mates just seeing me as a bit of a bastard, i can live in hope anyway.
Regardless this is quite promising not only for this project, but for my aspirations as a story teller in general, maybe I do have it in me to reach an audience.
On top of this I had a decent tutorial, But Im not quite sure the group grasped that I plan to make painterly looking, with the group saying that the comic wasn't enough for the outcome. Id be inclined to disagree, But I guess the outcome should display this. There was a suggestion from the tutor that I make multiple illustrations alongside the comic which I feel is a little harsh, the project is going to take quite a bit of effort as it is. If never really came out of a tutorial conflicted like this, is it arrogant of me to decide that the suggestions were possibly not the right direction? Regardless, Im sticking with my gut and making the comic, creating this outcome is kind of top priority in this project for me.
