If I were Batman and discovered a guy who could climb buildings and shoot webs without without a grappling gun i’d be mad jealous actually

art changes, AU stays the same
Been wanting to see how much my art’s changed since i started my ask blog and like…
1 year (-ish) ago:
Today:
1) things got ANGULAR
2) my lines have more flow
3) i actually know how to draw his fucking hair
Like it’s crazy how doing something periodically, for an audience, forces you to simplify and learn new things, i don’t think i’d be half as good or as fast at art as i am now if i wasn’t drawing litteraly all the time:
(1 year ago/today)
I’ve also learned that character design is a never ending process that takes a lot of experimentation and that’s why season 1 of your favorite cartoon show always looks so different.
Been wanting to add another update. I never feel like im improving fast enough but it’s been another year since i made this post and the difference is, well:
Ofc, I could always be better but i’ve learned so many new tricks and skills since then. That last one is my favorite despite being the oldest, i’ve been using a flat pen lately but might go back to what I was using before
So it’s been A YEAR AND A HALF (approximately) since my last update… since then a lot has happened and a lot hasn’t, I stopped updating my blog and doing comics altogether almost but I made an effort to keep practicing… a lot of changes have come with that as far as how I portray my boy but at the end of the day he’s still the same clown in all the ways that matter most and so am I
My humble freinds and followers, it has once again been 1 year and several months since my last progress log, I am once again doing comics of my son at a more sustainable pace than I was, and am currently digging my way into the industry despite many MANY stupid obstacles…. let’s see how things have gone:
it’s that time of year again…. to be honest I wasn’t gonna do this again cuz I I’m honestly perfectly satisfied with my art from a year ago and it truly seema like no time has passed at all but JUST to stay consistent
for SOME reason tumblr keeps nuking the text in some of the upper reblogs which is pissing me off, but anyway, lately I've been doing this thing called "whatever I want" and it's been a lot of fun
it took 8 years to get here but that ain't too bad
hello I just came from youtube, your work is really cool!
do you have tips for improving with color please? Like how did you learn to pick and use them? i particularly love the way you do your lighting.
I yearn to use fun colors, but i struggle a lot with understanding theory and all that jazz. I also draw comics and always end up with boring and muddy colors for my scenes. Like if I try to deviate from "normal" it doesn't look coherent, especially with night scenes or like anything with unnatural light.
I'm guessing you take a lot of inspiration from classic comics, but do you have maybe classes or coloring exercises that you've done? thank you <3
honestly, my color journey is still ongoing, but the biggest piece of advice I have is to study other peoples work and use slightly de-saturated colors most of the time
I think most people aim to make colors pop by using lots of super bright / super saturated tones, but colors pop best when something vibrant is juxtaposed against something duller and darker, I use that trick a lot to make my work seem very bright and colorful in general
also don’t be afraid to push colors to their limits, a desaturated blue can pass for green in some contexts, purple can pass as brown, light orange for yellow or pink for orange, this is something that takes some practice to utilize, but it can make coloring so much more fun
also, you can push all or most of your colors towards a certain spot on the color wheel, like a tint, if you use a shade of yellow that’s closer to green, use a shade of blue that’s closer to green as well, or a red that’s more orange than pink, this one’s tough to explain, but if you mess around in a drawing program you’ll get what I mean
was fun getting to stare at Ken in a teacher costume for 2.5 hours (drawn in march)
Your head will collapse, if there's nothing in it

Do you have any fave dc character outisde from like Gotham and Batman related?? LOVE your art!!!!
ty! and ,well, Superman is the answer to that question, he was actually the first DC character I loved, I've only just now gotten to a point where I feel like I can utilize his character in interesting ways :)
and after that, definitely Plastic Man
I've been following you for what feels like forever and just want to say how insane the art progression has been. It's so cool !! You've always been such a big inspiration for my own art (especially your lighting ... It's so tasty) and it's always been amazing to me, but seeing how far you've come is also so awesome to see. Makes me really want to start making comics of my own & makes me feel like I can one day put the art in my head down on paper the way I envision it.
Thank you so much for sharing your art with us all !!
ty!! and I hope you do! I believe in you! 💜
Hey goat!!
#1 Your art is lowkey such a big impact for me you were the first Batman artist I ever found and I’ve stuck with you for about 2-3 years now so it’s insane seeing how gorgeous your style has gotten and how fluid your formatting and posing has gotten and I thank you so much for feeding me juicy joker content with your amazing colors
#2 What’s your favorite part of drawing for your rogues comics/comic panels in general ??? Like do you like the story boarding, the coloring, background details, yknow that kinda stuff. ALSO DO YOU HAVE ANY TIPS ON HOW TO LAYOUT PANELS BETTER BECAUSE I SUCK AT DRAWING THE BOXES IN A COMPOSITIVE WAY
1# wow that's so awesome, I don't think too much of my art work from these last few years since I've been going at a slower pace than I was pre-covid, so it's awesome that some ppl have still found and chose to follow my work :'), I've been doing my best to practice and improve as much as possible so I'm glad all the work is paying off. 💜💜
2# for me, I'd say my favorite part is doing layouts, very closely followed by line art which has always been my favorite part of the process... I coloring is third because I do like it as well, but for comics it quickly becomes very tedious lol
as for comic layouts, I mostly study large publisher comics or veteran artists for that kind of thing... especially the older ones where the layouts are a little more simple and easier to follow...
indies, especially physically published indies with editors and such, can be really innovative and inspiring, but I tend to stick with big names for learning basic rules since they have these things down to a science
the main thing I try to achieve is clarity, readability and flow, as demonstrated by the images below (art by Steve Ellis), all western comics tend to follow the same left to right path down the page. it's not something you'll get the hang of immediately, but with practice it will become easier.
