I should say right now, drawing out a battle scene by hand, page-by-page is a lot harder than it sounds.
Perspectives have been the real issue for me, trying to make each panel interesting in itself while moving the scene along.
I admit some historical liberties may be taken in regards to the weapons at the time but gunpowder did exist back then. It wouldn't have been used for open warfare but in this case, it's largely just meant for distraction and terror tactics.
Cao Cao Aman, hero, tyrant, saviour, butcher, loyal, treacherous, wise, cruel, all these words and more have built his reputation.
Yet so little is known of how he started and what sort of world he was born into, what created the man he would become and why.
This comic is a historical fiction that tells the childhood of the famous Ancient Chinese Warlord Cao Cao, the major power-player of the Three Kingdoms Period. It retells historical instances through the eyes of various characters and touches upon instances that were as timely then as they are now.
If you've heard of Cao Cao, I hope to interest you with a new perspective on his life and the actions he took.
If you've never heard of Cao Cao, I hope to interest you all the same with this obscure but significant showcase of history.
Enjoy.
