Making a start on this exciting upcoming release from @metaphrog and @scholasticuk . Showed the cover to my year four class and was told to hurry up and read it, so they could before we break up.

Team work colouring our graphic novel: John is flatting in Clip Studio Paint, then we export files to Photoshop, convert them to CMYK (with no K in the colour mix except for the line art), before I colour and shade.

@jamiesmart There’s been a big influx of publishing folks on Bluesky this weekend. It’s more functional and less toxic over there.

[Sandra Marrs+John Chalmers @metaphrog]

Thanks @AlnessLanguages for inviting us. Had a great time!

[Alness Academy Languages Department @AlnessLanguages]

A massive thank you to Sandra and John @metaphrog for their session on Comic writing with our S2 pupils and for being a part of our first P7 Transition event. Looking forward to all the comic writing next week.
