A bigger one than Nelly and Kelly Rowland

Today, I am back from a five days trip to Biarritz where I worked on my comic. As usual I was staying in my granny-style hotel and enjoying the set back atmos provided by the city. I am almost at the middle of my story and I am facing a dilemma.

As you know I am an absolute beginner in that field, I have never wrote dialogues before, draw frames and bubbles, thought about any scenario for my characters.

When I began, I needed two days to draw a page, now I can start a new one in the morning and finish it before going to bed.

Today am definitely drawing faster, the pages compositions are coming to my mind almost systematicaly, my characters expressions are more elaborate and the positions are more audacious, it’s really a constant evolving exercise.

When I look at my last pages creations, I usually remote to the first ones and I notice the difference.

Now, here’s my dilemma : I could go back to those first pages and draw them again, but I know if I do this, I will never be able to finish it because I will always have older pages to rework on. It’s a neverending story.
