Just started on the #sketchnotes for 's upcoming course 'Web Security Essentials'
About to learn how to protect cookies from phishermen, and ward off flying swarms of cursor arrows. 🎣🍪🍪🍪🎣

Also tiny tip for starting a #sketchnote - I like laying down a loose set of layout guides to build the structure inside.
These are fairly abstract but I try to create a balanced set of big and small areas.
Helps align things into distinct sections.

Working more on the web security sketchnotes.
The blue underlay is my lazy rough version - mostly to plan the composition and make sure it’s all going to fit.
Then I do final lines and neater lettering over the top
These are still in progress - now learning about CSRF and XSS 🆘

for me the sketchnote is the blue one, wip, the place to learn and reflect and the finished one is an illustration. Both valuable

I’m guilty of this method (especially when I’m taking digital notes). I love that you are taking the comic-book-like “blue line” approach... and I love your use of the term #illustratednotes! Very nice work. #sketchnotes

Blue lines make it all more satisfying somehow 😄
Why “guilty” though?
Only curious as I’ve never been hesitant to plan first and do more coherent drawings over the top.
What’s the argument against sketching down a first pass layer?
