It’s the first week of November which means all the Halloween candy is likely gone and there’s a lot of rumbly tummies and regrets. Glen is no exception… here he is covered in chocolate and remorse.

The Making of Glen

This week I didn’t do too much different or special although it did take me a lot of time. I just found a photo of a pile of candy and and traced over it with a fresh layer eventually deleting the original photo as I resized the pile to suit my needs. Then I added a very fat little caterpillar and for that added kick I then threw more candy on top of him. He’s not feeling so good now…

Though this week’s comic does make me feel weirdly guilty like I am torturing a real entity and not just a doodle. I wonder if any other comic illustrators feel like that? I know writers sometimes do – because I’m also a writer (who for some terrifying reason is currently working on a children’s book because I need MORE self-taught illustrating skills!)
