Initially I planned to draw and colour using comic markers. And I did halfway, only to realise how tiring and time consuming it was.

So I did the sleeping beauty and Snow White in copic, and the rest are digitally coloured:

Snow White:

“I have quite a potential, but if I find an easier alternative, I’d rather do it that way.”

I completed the rest of the panels.

Sleeping beauty:

“I am hardworking, but if given the opportunity, I’d rather not be.”

Cinderella:

“I complain a lot, but at family gatherings, I shut up.”

Cinderella was the most morbid strip cause the mouse was forcefully stuffed into her mouth to ‘shut herself up’. Initially I just wanted cinderella to bow her head down and mop the floor quietly— but that was too normal.

3 Little Pigs:

“I always give my best, but if I face hardship, I crumble.”

Thus, circles it is:
