I ended up inking everything during the final details phase, because it's easier to do that digitally. I hope that' s ok! I've attached the script for both pages as well.

Your assignment is to create a full-size comic page from your reduced size layout. Here are the steps to follow:

Transfer the Layout: Use a light box or a computer monitor to trace your reduced size layout onto a full-size panel. Focus on loose placement rather than precise details.

Tighten Up the Page: Start by establishing panel borders and laying in proper perspective for each panel, especially for larger scenes. Then, lightly sketch each element in the panels before tightening them up.

Focus on Construction: Ensure you use proper construction techniques for faces, figures, and environmental elements. At this stage, avoid getting too detailed; just aim for the cleanest, simplest version of your full-size page.

Add Final Details: Once the whole page is re-established as a tightline drawing, proceed to add line weight, shadows, and rendering. Work systematically through the page to address and fix any issues at each stage.

Digital Work: If you prefer, you can work digitally.

Be sure to post images of your final reduced size layout along with your final pencils.

Hello, good day. As I mentioned in a previous lesson, I did the three exercises without following the guidelines below because I thought they were specific to the first lesson. Even so, I was prudent enough to scan them before inking them. I'm really sorry I didn't follow the lessons systematically; nevertheless, I followed them very carefully and think I've learned a lot. I'll be encouraged to make more short practice scripts, following David's lessons step by step, and I'll surely upload some here later. Well, this is the full-size layouts I have with final pencils. I'm including an alternative version of the 5-panel proposal in which I experiment with a less traditional reading order. It's also the only script I made that wasn't inked, so I'll upload the process in the following lessons. The hero, this time, is based on an old and well-known meme, which is perhaps not so easy to recognize these days
