Just about done with the 2nd story of Modern Christians. I mean it this time! I really do wish I was done with it earlier!
I am looking very forward to Modern Christians chapter 3. It's mostly about Randy and what it feels like to be put on the spot as a Christian dealing with athiests who hate Christanity. Especially if we may be weak in our faith. You know that feeling you have when non-believers or other beliefs ask why we believe so and so and we feel like we don't have an anwser at the moment? Theres 1 Peter 3:15 which tells us to be prepared to give an anwser for anyone who asks why we put our faith in Jesus or maybe anything about Christianity.
With Modern Christians Chapter 3 and beyond Iam planning on giving it all big improvements:
Using bigger sheets of paper so I get more space to draw detailed work.
A planned out script; some of it from my head and most of it written down. Modern Christians chapters 1 and 2 were mostly planned out without much planning. But Chapter 3 is pretty much all planned out. Much of the dialog will come from me or influences or even used by people on certain message boards and youtube video comments. Not word by word though. But I want the dialog to look athentic.
Using a typed up font for word balloons so it looks neater and more professional. Not sure what font style to use. But I don't really feel like using the familar font used in nearly all comics.
Characters will be based off of model sheet's so they look consistent. And slight changes to them maybe so they look more like teenagers.
I am trying to change how Christian comics are seen and done. Shake things up a little. Enough to the point where Christian comics get noticed and popular, become icons. And also where our comics won't get mocked. Like this one here:
Notice the dialog the narriators add to the story? Notice the comments in the comments section? Notice how they mock the comic and what we believe? Watch the other videos by the same user. He even makes fun of Chick tracts. Though sometimes Chick tracts do have unrealistic stories and dialog, still I wish they weren't mocked so much.
Modern Christians is about to get a lot more interesting! :)
