References

Using References I'm not familiar with drawing wells. So I looked for photos of Palestinian women using the well. I used the image below as a reference in my comic. I didn't draw the image as it is because I always prefer to add my own style and only use the references to have a visual and general idea of the scene. Source Salma (2019) 

Designing the characters.

iv. Sketching: Characters This is a sketch of the woman with her baby. I originally wanted to draw the comic digitally with no colors in a "Manga Style" , but when I colored it with Copic Markers, I was pleased with the results. Therefore, I decided to do it traditionally with colors. Ghoul First sketch: I did this sketch in the 23rd of October. Reflecting on how the first sketch was, I figured that adding more elements to the creature will make it more unique.    Second Sketch:  A female Ghoul with hair and clothes. She has a human figure and a ghoul's features, which are the teeth and the tail. Third Sketch: After reading more about the ghouls, they were described as zombies (modern form of the Ghouls) who feast on human flesh (Lamb , unknown), so I redraw it in a form of animal features rather than human .
