Klandestines banners

Journal Entry: Wed Jun 4, 2008, 12:23 PM
The Klandestines is progressing nicely.

At the head of each new chapter we're having a banner panel illustrated by someone other than Dong. Banners introduce chapters. The banner sometimes includes information, such as if time has elapsed or sometimes the location of the next scene. Generally we want the banners to stand out against the rest of the comic and be a bit experimental. Most banners are image-based and need to include the chapter number.
The comic will be black and white, so colour cannot be a main theme of a banner.

There are five banners in issue 1, below is info about each banner

Banner 1: SIDE BANNER
Chapter 1

Banner2: LENGTHWAYS/ ACROSS ¼ SIZE OF PAGE.
Chapter 2
One month, three days and ten hours earlier…

Banner 3: TOP/ LENGTHWAYS
Chapter 3.
One month, two days and twenty three hours later…

Banner 4: ??? (I CAN’T REMEMBER THE ORIENTATION, I THINK IT’S LENGTHWAYS)
Chapter 4

Banner 5: SIDE BANNER.
Chapter 5
6 Days later.

There might be a sixth banner, which will probably be lengthways at the top and say something like ‘In future episodes…’ or ‘;Preview’. (if there is an emoticon at the beginning of preview I will shake my fist and shake my head at the stupidity of the world.)

Dong hopes to be finished with issue 1 in August, so if anyone wants to do any of these banners, let me know. I’d need them in August some time. I think I asked people before, but forgot who and when etc.

Thanks :)

PS: I have fashioned myself a tea travel pack which includes a selection of green tea, oolong, herbal and black tea. It even has an infuser in it, within which are tea leaves ready to brew. I take this travel tea pack around with me for tea emergencies. I love it.

That is a long homeless stretch; you must smell something rotten by now and have a beard to rival simon's. Sounds good.
Simon is moving into his mum's garage soon, since he is also homeless, smells and has an unkempt beard. He has two days until he is officially homeless however, so the smell and the beard are rather inconsequential.
I'm impressed that you've been able to do a few pencil pages on the orchard :)
life for me is fine and good. Lots of writing, slightly less drawing, lots of reading and plenty of outdoors things.
Well there's a cake in the oven that needs my attention, so i better sign off now. I hope your house arrangements go well, and so on.

hey dude! im still homeless, hence my lack of contact as of late, but move in date for the new citadel is 1st of sept (fingers crossed it doesnt fall through)

orchard wise, i have actually done quite a few pages in pencil, so the ball is rolling, but im cutting my hours at work after i move in so i can concentrate more on the art side of life

hows things?

Heh, that sketched me right out for a second there. I didn't realise who you were when I saw your comment on my stuff, then came on to your profile to check out your stuff and saw the photos from Duncliffe and thought "oh man it's like some sort of mega coincidence. Then I saw the picture of the sheep that you have on facebook and remembered that i'd put the link there yesterday.

As it so happens I dislike fishsticks as well, but James was revelling in them at the time, and so the naration continued.

Thanks for taking the time to take a look at my pictures :handshake: It's been so long that I've updated my art that I almost forgot that I had all of those pictures... it makes me want to start updating again! :painter:
Also, thanks for friending me! I'm looking forward to the next things you post!
