Making of "No Good Deed"
Added 2020-07-13 00:53:21 +0000 UTCSorry I've got a bit behind on posting these Making Of's. I put them together on my PC, but haven't had much time in my office of late with potty training in full swing. Thankfully I do my comics on my iPad, so at least I can sit in the loo with him and still work! :)
This one is based on something 3yo actually said. I'm happy to report he didn't actually hit me in the face, just a rubbish little baby slap on the leg. I upped it to a face slap in the comic because a) it's funnier and b) it's easier to show the expressions when it's zoomed in on their heads.
I had to mess around with this one quite a bit to get the story right. Originally the 5th panel was going to be the bonus, but it seemed a bit harsh to end the comic with her getting slapped -it needed him cheekily running away to lighten to the tone.
When I was looking for slapping reference pictures, this Batman meme popped up:
I thought it would make a funny Easter Egg to copy the meme format, but the resulting slap looked a bit too serious. I wanted to make it clear it was just a toddler fooling around and not something more sinister!
