ACT3 SCENE 3 LAYOUT ROUGHS

This scene is just four pages in the graphic novel it's King Claudius in the chapel wrestling with his thoughts and Hamlet observing him and feeling tempted to strike him down with his sword, as usual there are side notes for the artist to follow.
i'm still pleased with panels 438 and 443 both showing close up drama with the aid of shadows on the faces

ACT 3 SCENE 1 LAYOUT / ROUGHS

So this scene is 9 pages long , again a lot of attention was place on facial emotions , hand jests and staging just like a real play the strip also has lighting elements to make some frames more atmospheric such as page 75 panel 4 where Hamlet is saying his famous speech.

Extra details where written for the penciler to follow as side notes or more faces to show exact expressions.
