I've finished the lining and colouring of A Crying Shame, and have taken the chance to lay out the pages in the correct layout to see how the pages look side by side as they will when being read. I am really really happy with the way they look. The flow feels natural and slow. I still feel quite aware that the comic itself is quite short, and know that I struggle to stretch out dialog and let the pictures tell more of the story, but I am much happier with this layout than earlier versions which were more condensed and word heavy.
I'm looking forward to seeing it fully lettered, which I will work on next, and re-evaluate again at that stage that the flow still works, and the pacing matches the story.
