I had been thinking about these panels since I wrote them. Trying to figure out in my head how I would lay them out. The one I was really worried about was the swerve. How do you get all the energy of a car going out of control in a static panel? I guess you just use a lot of “noise” with lines and dust and splashing water and dirt and whatever you got.

We are about to get into a lot of car action in the next few pages. I always get a little nervous drawing cars. They are so geometric which clashes with my loose style. But I tried to keep it loose anyways. Basically sketch the gesture of the car the same way I would for a character and just go with it. Even if it wasn’t “anatomical” correct. I like the way they came out. Also really liking this batch of pages coming up. Maybe just because of the fact that I had to face my fears about drawing cars.
