Create your own Comic book

On the following pages are template for you to fill in with your own drawings and stories.

Start by thinking about what your comic could be about You could write about; 

Someone you know who you think is a super hero!



Your own story about a popular fictional character



Something fantastic and extraordinary



An adventure



… or something completely different!

Draw out the comic in pencil first, then add pen and colour once you have it sketched out.

You can use pictures from books or the internet (under adult supervision) for inspiration, good luck!

Beth am greu eich llyfr comig eich hun?

Mae'r tudalennau canlynol yn cynnwys templed i chi ei lenwi gan ddefnyddio'ch lluniau a'ch straeon eich hun.

Dechreuwch drwy feddwl am beth yw pwnc eich comig Gallech ysgrifennu am;  Rywun rydych yn ei adnabod sy'n arwr i chi!  Eich stori eich hun am gymeriad ffuglennol poblogaidd  Rhywbeth gwych ac arbennig  Antur  ... neu rywbeth cwbl wahanol!

Darluniwch y comig gan ddefnyddio pensil i ddechrau, yna ychwanegwch liw ar ôl i chi fraslunio'ch comig.

Gallwch ddefnyddio lluniau o lyfrau neu'r we (dan oruchwyliaeth oedolyn) i gael ysbrydoliaeth, pob lwc!

The following battle cards let you create your own version of the popular card game “top trumps” All you have to do is ;



think of six characters,



draw a picture of your character on the cards in the empty box,



give them different score for each category

Mae'r cardiau brwydro canlynol yn eich caniatáu i greu eich fersiwn eich hun o'r gêm boblogaidd 'Top Trumps'.

Y cyfan y mae angen i chi ei wneud yw: · meddwl am 6 chymeriad · tynnu llun o'ch cymeriadau ar y cardiau yn y blwch gwag · rhoi gwahanol sgôr am bob categori rhwng 1 (drwg/isel) a 10 (gwych/uchel)

between a range of number (1-10, 1-100 etc)

You need a range of scores in order to play with them, so don’t make them all amazing at everything or you won’t be able to compete against a rival set.

Generally, each character has a special skill/high score that another character doesn’t. you can figure out how to score the cards using the table on the next page.

Mae angen i chi gael amrediad o sgorau er mwyn chwarae peidiwch â sgorio popeth yn wych neu fydd dim modd i chi chwarae yn erbyn set arall. Yn gyffredinol, mae gan bob cymeriad sgil arbennig/sgôr uchel nad oes gan gymeriad arall.

Gallwch ddarganfod sut i sgorio'r cardiau drwy ddefnyddio'r tabl isod.

Gweithdy Mandala

Manylder Mandala gan Tina Grant

Beth yw mandala?

Mandala yw'r gair Sansgrit am gylch. Patrwm o symbolau sydd wedi'u trefnu mewn cylchoedd cydganol yw mandala. Yn hanesyddol, fe'u defnyddiwyd fel tywyswyr ysbrydol, mapiau meddwl, cynrychiolwyr o'r cosmos, y nefoedd neu Dduw ac fel ffordd o fyfyrio.

Mae creu mandala'n brofiad hamddenol, mae pob un yn unigryw ac ni allwch wneud camgymeriad.

Yn y gweithdy hwn, byddwn yn defnyddio technegau arlunio awtomatig i ddatgelu symbolau'r isymwybod i'w defnyddio fel man

Beth fydd ei angen arnoch? 

Papur



Inc/paent du



Brws neu feiro neu offeryn arlunio cartref



Pensil



Cwmpawd (dewisol)



Pren mesur



Beiro ysgrifennu maen du

Cam 1 Yn gyntaf, byddwn yn creu marciau. Gallwch ddefnyddio brws, inc neu baent, neu hyd yn oed gwneud eich offeryn eich hun allan o frigyn miniog neu drwy glymu deunyddiau gwahanol i ddiwedd y brigyn.

Gwnewch gyfres o farciau ar bapur wrth adael i'ch meddyliau grwydro. Gall y marciau fod yn unrhyw beth, ond ceisiwch arbrofi â ffyrdd gwahanol o farcio wrth feddwl am bethau gwahanol hefyd.

Cam 2 Edrychwch ar eich paentiadau gan nodi rhai o'r symbolau ynddynt yr hoffech eu defnyddio yn eich mandala.

Cam 3

Nawr, gallwn greu strwythur eich mandala. Tynnwch lun o gylchoedd cydganol ar ddarn o bapur sgwâr. Gallwch gael cynifer o gylchoedd ag yr hoffech a gallant fod yn feintiau gwahanol. Nawr, rhannwch eich cylchoedd yn ddarnau hafal. Bydd hwn yn eich helpu i gadw'r patrymau'n gyson.

Cam 4 Dechreuwch yn y canol a llenwch bob cylch â phatrwm o'ch dewis. Gallwch ddefnyddio rhai o'r symbolau a grëwyd gennych yn gynharach, ac ychwanegu rhagor wrth i chi fynd yn eich blaen a hyd yn oed ychwanegu dyluniadau ffigurol. Mae unrhyw beth yn iawn ar yr amod eich bod yn llenwi'r cylch â'r patrwm, a gall eich mandala barhau nes eich bod yn llenwi'r papur!

A dyna ni! Cipolwg unigryw ar eich isymwybod!

Mandala gan Tina Grant Awgrymiadau 

Cofiwch fod y berthynas rhwng y marciau du a'r papur yn newid ym mhob cylch. Weithiau bydd y cefndir yn ddu ac weithiau bydd yn wyn.



Beth am roi cynnig ar un lliw gwahanol? Sut mae hynny'n newid y deinameg?



Nid oes rhaid arlunio mandala. Allwch chi ail-greu eich dyluniad drwy ddefnyddio deunydd arall? Mosäig? Pwytho? Gludwaith?



Allech chi greu mandala â themâu gwahanol? Stori eich bywyd? Natur? Y môr?

Mandala Workshop

Mandala detail by Tina Grant So what is a mandala?

The word mandala is Sanskrit for circle. A mandala is a pattern of symbols arranged in concentric circles. Historically they have been used as spiritual guides, mind maps, as representations of the cosmos or heaven or God and as a form of meditation. I like to think of them as a kind of unconscious self-portrait.

They are relaxing to do, each is unique and there is no such thing as a mistake.

In this workshop we will be using automatic drawing techniques to uncover symbols of the subconscious to use as a starting point to create our own mandalas.

What you will need? 

Paper



Black ink/paint



Brush or Pen or Homemade drawing tool



Pencil



Compass (optional)



Ruler



Black fineline pen

Step 1 First we are going to make some marks. You can use a brush and ink or paint or even make your own tool to work with out of a sharpened stick or by tying different materials to the end of a stick.

Make a series of marks on paper whilst allowing your thoughts to wander. The marks can be anything but try and experiment with different types of mark and whilst thinking of different things.

You can create as many of these abstract paintings as you like.

Step 2 Have a look at your paintings and identify some symbols in them you would like to use in your mandala.

Step 3 Now let’s create the structure of your mandala. Draw out concentric rings onto a square piece of paper. You can have as many or as few rings as you like and they can be all different sizes.

Now divide your tions. This will patterns uniform.

rings into equal sechelp keep your

Step 4 Starting in the middle fill each circle with a pattern of your choice.

You can use some of the symbols you created earlier, add more as you go and even add figurative designs. Anything is ok as long as you fill the circle with the pattern and your mandala can go on as long as you have paper left!

And here it is! A unique insight into your subconscious!

Mandala by Tina Grant Tips 

Remember the relationship between the black marks and the paper changes with each ring. Sometimes the black is background and sometimes the white.



Why not try one with colour? How does this change the dynamic?



A mandala does not have to be drawn. Could you take your

design and rework it through a different material? Mosaic? 

Stitch? Collage?



Could you make a mandala with different themes? The story of your life? Nature? The sea?

When you have finished why not post an image of your work in your window includ-
