      @frankiiij I'd say that's images in sequence. In the storyboard category!

          @frankiiij I believe these qualify as vignettes since they are full background, but not fully to the edge of the paper. A spot would just have no bg or only an indication of bg

            @frankiiij from what I gathered at the arena last night was it's a single image that encompasses the character and plot/device elements to highlight a moment in a story. So minimal background, and zoomed in to the situation the character is in. And Lee said no drawing to the edge.

                  @frankiiij Spot illustrations are often in books with space for text like this one in the BFG.

                    @frankiiij lovely work! Yes, they definitely could be spots but given their size I’d say they’re more of vignettes.

                      @frankiiij I'd agree with @Nyrryl-Cadiz and say they're more vignettes (though I went down a rabbit hole on the difference between spots and vignettes and the line's blurry, lol).

                      Pretty work, though 🙂

                        Thank you all for the help. I think want I am nervous with is the amount of work in the picture. For example. Should i add a subtle color background to create the spot effect?

                          @frankiiij I think it looks great how it is but you could do a design with the faint background to see how you like it?
