I chose the story, 'The hitchhiker' because it seemed like the story would be easy to illustrate, with the character ideas, i could create the basic outlines for all the characters in one lesson. I also chose this story because it is interesting and it would be easy to change it if something went wrong halfway through.

This style i really like because it i easy to put expressions into different characters faces, and it is also my type of way to draw aswell, so it wouldnt take long to design the characters for all of the scenes.

This comic is much like the american style, because its made by AK comics, the company that illustrates comics like spiderman, deadpool and The incredible hulk.

# data[].attributes.body
This style is very bold and uses huge amounts of colour to express feelings among the characters, it also uses huge text.

# data[].attributes.body
This style is in black and white, and is very reliant on width of line to communicate the expressions on each page, this gives a very specific effect.

# data[].attributes.body
This style is very precise, with thin lines and only a few main colours for the main characters.

# data[].attributes.body
This style is very comedic, and uses a lot of colour, along with a different varying set of line widths.

Here i am researching the different styles of comics that i can use to influence my graphic narrative

This is a second shot of the guys, to give better perspective, and to give a better idea of how to draw them when in different points of view.

I would like the left guy to be the hitchhiker, and the right guy to be the narrator, simply because the left guy looks like he is rather cocky, and is slim, and skinny. Whereas the right guy looks like he is broad and has a deep, soothing voice, fit for a narrator.

My comic will be based on the short story from Roald dahl, called 'The Hitchhiker'. My comic will be firstly sketched out, then illustrated in illustrator, this is to achieve a more comic like look, and to further develop my skills in illustrator. it will be a 4 page comic, and will have different styles of panels on each page, to keep the readers interested in the comic. The Hitchhiker is about 2 main characters, called 'the narrator' and 'the hitchhiker', the story starts off with the narrator driving a brand new BMW sports car, and as the narrator is driving down a road, he picks up a hitchhiker. The two characters start talking, and the hitchhiker reveals that he is going towards derby day, a horse racing event, after that he says that he is a 'very skilled tradesman', then asks the narrator what the top speed of the car is, he replies, 129mph. The hitchhiker challenges the narrator to prove it, the narrator approves and begins to accelerate until he reaches the top speed, then gets pulled over by a policeman, the policeman threatens a lengthy prison sentence and hands them a fine, then hitchhiker says that he is a hod-carrier, to which the policeman says to the both that they can go on their way. The narrator asks why he lied, he says again, he's a skilled tradesman. He then rolls a cigarette, very fast, and the narrator compliments him for having very slim, fantastic fingers. The hitchhiker then reveals that he has been pickpocketing the narrator since the beginning of the journey, the hitchhiker says that a pickpocket is a very ameteur word for his occupation, which is a fingersmith, a person that is very good with his fingers. The fingersmith then reveals that he has stolen the policemans diary, and says that he doesn't have to worry about the policeman checking up on them. This makes them both laugh, and continue to make a bonfire with the policemans stolen diaries.
