Finally finished. I realized I need to start painting bigger pictures since this one is awfully small and fleshing out the details wasn’t as much fun as it could have been. It also taught me that I need to learn to be more exact and precise when choosing colors.

Oh, and if you don’t get the story (some details are still hard to make out, unfortunately): It is about the unpredictability of love. The little robot thinks he has found his love by tearing the petals of a flower and decides to send a letter of love to his new girl but through an accident he has to find out that his heart has decided otherwise…

Lots of things going on today and stuff to prepare for the Comic Con in Erlangen. Excuse for not having made much progress. Maybe.

Todays progress on the comic. Painting is fun.

For today finally the update to the previous post on 9 panels about love. The first image is the storyboard, the second scan shows the pencils on the primed and colored wooden board. The board is roughly 28 cm by 30 cm (12″ x 11″).

Currently I am working on a painted nine panel comic strip. Following are the first few character studies for the protagonist.
