…the last half of this comic to look better !
If you follow me on Instagram, you might have noticed I’ve been very productive since the beginning of the COVID-19 quarantine. Part of it is my professional contract that’s in its last stretch, another one is the gay-sex dramedy Santa Frances (first episode debuts on April 27th on Patreon and May 4th on Instagram!), and between those two I took part in Jimmy Beaulieu’s 24H de la bande-dessinée de fin du monde. It was a challenge to draw a 24 pages long comic in the span of 48 hours. It was absolutely exhausting but i’m pretty proud of what I did (even if the last half clearly isn’t as polished as the first, and I literally finished the last pages minutes before the deadline).
You can read it on the site here and you can check out all the other participants on Toutestfoutu.com. oh, it’s in French, by the way, since it’s a francophone challenge.
We got the theme on April 1st at 3pm (9am in North America) which was “J’aurais voulu” (“I would have wanted to”). I had a couple self-imposed conditions before starting ; first of, drawing the comic on paper, and featuring a female character (since I’ve been spending so much time drawing men these past few weeks). I conceived the story in a dozen minutes and then I was off to the races!
Anyway, I hope you’ll enjoy it despite the drop in quality in the art in the last few pages (I was thinking of redoing them but that would defy the purpose).
