Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a very well-known arthurian tale written in the late 14th century. The comic will follow the original poem exactly, save from certain lines or entire stanzas being omitted just for faster story-telling and a more streamlined narrative. I hope to present the poem in a way that it can be appreciated by those who don’t have the opportunity to study it in school, or who don’t have the time to make sense of it on their own outside of school. 

I will be experimenting with my art style in this comic. I already got ahead of myself here with this first page and allowed my art style to become more realistic than what I am comfortable with, and I want to pull it back into a more controlled, cartoonish style in the next page. There are a lot of things I’m disappointed with in this page, but also a lot of things I’m very happy with. Overall, I would call it a big success, considering that 3 of the 5 panels were fairly expansive landscapes (which I am just the worst at). If you don’t point out the wonky perspectives in a couple of the panels, then I won’t either.

This is amazing!
