Dragon Riders and Ironclad

This week's assignment was making an 8 panel sequence after this image:

Dunno who made this- our teacher found it online and loved its  cinematic shot

 The original setup I had was that a mysterious something comes in and attacks the creature and which later reveals to be the dragon riders.

some unused panels

Mark fixed things up quick by simply rearranging the sequence so it reads a lot clearer.

And story impact wise, it is much much better.

We also had our discussion about the movie IRONCLAD- a medieval type backdrop for another 'Seven Samurai'-esque story. The biggest flaws to that was that while it was entertaining and all that, a lot of character goals and motivations were either very shallow (there's something there but it's all superficial) or you get situations like below. A lot of scenes could have also benefitted from a visual cue rather than a simple dialogue exposition.
