Scanning, eh?

...Interestingly, this has turned out to be the most time-consuming part of the whole affair. Funny.

First eight pages!

They're in pdf so they won't upload to blogger.

In keeping with the down & dirty spirit of the day, I've bunged them - badly - onto a google site instead. Here it is...

The title is now chosen, by the way. It is 'but how come I can never find anything ever.' (Catchy, no?)

Oh man I may have misjudged this

Three hours in, 8 pages pencilled. 12 to go.

Kind of wish I'd scripted this...

Man, I'm learning already and I don't like it

So I figured to use only one maxim on my 24 hour comic: SPEED. All will be sacrificed to speed. Even access to a proper eraser (seriously, I don't have one and I'm not going to get one.)

But even doing the bare minimum, setting up the blog/the table/finding my bad pens/first two posts - that's taken an HOUR.

I always figured cutting corners would save stacks of time - turns out, not as much as I thought.

Nuts.

We're off!

My plan is to do a 24 hour comic.

I've decided something, though. The 24 hour restriction isn't enough. I want MORE.

See this picture? It contains:

a laptop

a camera

a chopping board

one terrible pencil

one terrible black ink pen

one sharpie

seven colour pens

one bottle of white-out

three incredibly terrible erasers

24 pieces of paper

...that's it. That's all I'm going to use. If I ruin a whole piece of paper, then too bad - I still have to use it. Tough.

The goal is this:

Make something really terrible but GET IT DONE.

I'll be posting updated throughout the day as the bad, bad drawings stack up. Wish me luck!

P.S. I actually have a really good collection of drawing tools, but I can't find them and I've decided not to lose time looking. Terrible erasers it is.
