What is known by the work-in-progress name of Project Yesenia (check this tag on Patreon for all relevant posts) is my next graphic novel!! I posted about it here, on Tumblr!
Current Status of Graphic Novel
Page Count: ~290pgs
Outline: 100%
Script: 92%
Thumbnails: 60%
Pencils: 1% ✨ (just started!!) ✨
Inks: 0%
Colors: 0%
Final Edits/Submission: 0%
Above is a breakdown of my progress. You'll notice that I'm technically not "done" with the script and I have several pages left to thumbnail. I'm starting anyway. Since my outline is fairly thorough, I feel comfortable with launching into the work because I know how the comic ends. I'm also the type of storyteller who needs to know how the comic looks before I can truly complete the rest of the story.
New Pages
In drawing the graphic novel, I didn't start penciling from page 1. This is because I'll likely have to go back and redraw many pages as my style and rendition of the characters improves throughout the course of the project. But here's starting around page 20! MOMENTS BEFORE CHI-CHI SWITCHES BODIES.
Yeah that's a cardboard cutout of an entire kpop band member. KEEP MOVING.
Chi-Chi passes out after an exhausting (and extremely embarrassing) day...what awaits her at waking...Her room is filled with BGBB paraphernalia. Oh! Here's how thumbnails for this page looked like:
This is, uh, definitely not chi-chi's room. Where's all the BGBB merch?
As Chi-chi wakes up, she's dreaming about an embarrassing moment featuring her mom.
Just a quick update! I'm hoping to knock out more pages this month! ✨

Hahaha, I saw your previous comic and assumed—not the body swapping!

This looks like so much fun, and I can super relate so I’m excited to read this!! The growing up black in a white space...not body swapping. 🤣
