Page! (Patreon)

I really like this page!! I think it conveys Alex’s emotions and I’m happy with the layout and the way the character breaks the panels.

When working on a layout, I always try and let the characters stay as elastic as possible. I want the panels borders to help with pacing but not constrain the characters.

This has been the most exciting part of working on Mimosa, is that there’s room for the characters to be elastic! I want a realistic image next to a super cartoony one. I think it helps showcase the feelings of the moment, especially when the contrast is strong. It’s something I haven’t really experimented with before being able to work on this long form comic!
