Worthwhile experiment. I'm re-energized

Also took Marty's advice and gave one guy a pith helmet. That makes it hanky-head-, ball cap, and pith helmet.
Second page shows how the silhouette gets less readable. Gives me ideas about edits I might make
The ending, giant tentacle comes out of the hole and sweeps the rest of the party into the hole. My version Of Uncle Creepy wraps up the story. What you saw and what it meant. I wish he'd tell me right now. Otherwise I have to make it up.
Stabbed down a little tighter. I'll try and finish the whole thing, balloons, tone and all by tomorrow.

Interesting experiment. I suspect that if I was to do the same thing my silhouettes wouldn't be nearly as interesting.

Experiment.

As I'm doing it I'm going "wow, not bad Goodson."

And of course if they end up not reading as silhouette, then you might have a drawing 101 problem that could be fixed.

I had a couple of those problems on page two and I think I'll fix them rather than let them stay the same.

It also places you squarely in Mignola country without any real thought. Then it really does become spotting blacks when the you like the whole thing as black.

El--love the third page! But I can't tell--is the tentacle sneaking up on them, or are they trying to run??

Holy crap the Uncle Creepy at the end is hilarious...

I guess I got confused on panel 4/5 (when they're running from, and consequently swept away by tentacle).

Yeah, it was better ( it always is) in the small thumbnail. I need to go back to that staging. I goofed off. I could have done the strip today and lost focus.
