How Maui slow the Sun - Sa Kae

 I have created a comic strip using dialogue to show a scene from How Maui slowed the Sun. I used Storyboard that to create this. It was quite hard to find the characters to use because they all had clothes and shoes on which wasn't how Maui dressed.  I think I did a good job on this comic strip.
