Doc Paleo's Junior Archaeologist Dig Set (JWP Part 1)



That's right, I said it yesterday--a brand new story starts today!

Just to change things up I'm drawing this one on paper then scanning it. I've neglected the traditional half of my studio lately, 12 BOTS was full digital. I haven't worked on paper for two months.

This new story is both dialogue and narration-free--but that's not to say word-free. I've always wanted to do a "wordless" style picture book, but fill the illustrations with signage and ambient text, like the label on the box here. The story is told wordlessly, but there is still text everywhere. We'll see how it goes!
