A greyscale manga-style comic. A small baby bird harpy is laying in the middle of a forest clearing and is noticed by a jackalope. The baby harpy is loud, and she chirps aimlessly as the jackalope approaches her and sniffs her all over, noticing she has a deformed wing. The jackalope curls up around her and falls asleep. The page fades to black.
A double page spread of a manga-style comic. The harpy girl, now a child, yells her jackalope companion's name, "Chip!" Chip wakes up and scratches behind his ear as the harpy descends down her nest and puts on her bag. A wide panel shows them traversing the forest together. She uses a rope and her deformed arm to climb a tree, then picks fruit with her beak and puts it in her bag. It starts to rain, the two head home, and they share the fruit together and watch the rain safely from inside a bush.
The results of my character design assignment! I wanted to attempt a challenging layout inspired by Boichi's work. The second image is a two page spread.
