Cabin Pressure Advent: Yverdon-les-Bains

Cabin Pressure Series 4, Episode 6: Yverdon-les-Bains

A letter came for you, Skip ...

Probably not the best episode to be starting with, but when you've been following the arcs even a little bit, boy is it good.

Something I find very difficult is drawing a character looking at the 'camera' (i.e. making eye contact with the audience) so of course I pick a scene which has three characters doing just that. Not only do they have to look right individually, they all have to be looking at the same camera (i.e. me) – yet once I got Arthur right, Carolyn would be looking at the top of my head, or Douglas at my shoulder. I wish I could say I learned something, but I think mainly what I learned was what difference a few molecules of graphite make in the impression one gets of eye direction.
