    uniE621 Comic Illustration – The Wanted Teacher
    This piece is part of a comic-style illustration I created, inspired by historical and dramatic storytelling. I wanted to capture a strong sense of tension and emotion through cinematic panels, vivid colors, and dynamic compositions. The narrative follows a moment of suspense: the joyful gathering of children at school suddenly shifts as danger arrives and agents surround the area. Through this design, I aimed to balance the warmth of human connection with the stark intrusion of conflict. This project allowed me to experiment with storytelling through sequential art, combining atmosphere, character expression, and environment design. designer branding photo comics comicpage comicstrip comicartist photoshopeditor…

    uniE621 Wanted Teacher – The General
    Character Design – “The General” Here is a character I created for a motion comic project. “The General” is a strict, cold-hearted military figure whose expressions and posture were designed to show authority, tension, and a hint of dark humor. I focused on strong facial acting, sharp features, and a clean silhouette to make him instantly readable in both close-ups and dynamic scenes. The final sheet includes multiple expressions and a full-body pose to capture his personality. Hope you enjoy the design! Feedback is always welcome. illustrator designer comic comic…
