Dylan's Sketchbook
Pen-and-pencil spreads straight from the working sketchbook. Rough panels, handwritten lines, crossings-out, and the empty frames where the next MaxiCat adventure is still being figured out.
Watch MaxiCat go from scribble to finished page in Dylan's working sketchbook.
Pages 4–11 · From the Vegetable Garden to the Deep Forest
MaxiCat's failed 1st attempt
Pages 12–19 · Owl at Dusk
Owl cries "Hoot! Hoot!", Aunty Mum scoops MaxiCat up and runs for home, and MaxiCat lies awake growing an idea to make the forest feel less scary.
