someone out there feels better because you exist
after 4 years of drawing webcomics, this is my wisdom:
start now. now. now now now. or else you'll never draw this damn thing
it's fine if you don't have the entire story figured out yet, it'll happen naturally
draw what you want to draw!! webcomics often run for years, so you better work with something you like
don't overcomplicate things. a simple, efficient work flow is your top priority in order to stay consistent
bullshit some things. trace background refs. reuse poses. draw your character's face from different angles and just copy paste it in to save time. be smart about your work baby
take breaks if needed. webcomic burnout is real
sometimes, a panel or a page looks bad. shit happens. move on
lettering is actually really important and super hard to pull off
it's your comic. do what you want forever!!!
I'm begging you again to work smart, not hard. reuse backgrounds. use brush sets for webcomic artists. trace 3D objects. use 3D models to pose your characters
you may need hours or days to draw one panel, but people will look at it for 5-8 seconds. keep that in mind
a simple background is better than no background at all (avoiding the white void increases the quality of your work by a ton!)
sometimes the anatomy needs to be a little off to make an interesting shot/panel. that's fine, don't worry about it too much
at least 2000px canvas and 300 dpi for good quality results
it's okay to stop by the way. it's okay to move on from a project if you no longer find joy in it
the use of AI lately has made me feel so hopeless, i translated pages of an unfinished fanzine of mine so i can remember why i love art...i hope it can resonate with anyone feeling the same way
"Doraemon..? I've not heard of this digimon."
That's because he's not a digimon. He's a cat.
"There are digimon who resemble the creatures you call cats."
Yes, but he's not a digimon.
"Then why does his name end in 'mon?"
Dorumon discovers Doraemon and is utterly perplexed. Nonetheless she bonds with a plush toy and claims it as her treasure.
I think more people need to remember and keep in mind that behind every single mass-produced plush that exists on this planet is a factory worker who has had to operate machinery in order to make these products. There is not a single factory out there that can make plushies entirely by machine, which is why it is so important to hold toy companies accountable for their workspace conditions.
No plush is worthy of existing if it is made from slave labour.
🚫DON'T USE AI🚫
Pick up a pen or c0mmi$$ion real human artists, like me!
Here's my process!
as a child there's nothing cooler than a kid who gets subjected to evil experiments and gains special abilities. it's even cooler if these abilities also cause unfathomable suffering to use/against others. children love stories like this.
The children yearn to be Mewtwo
you know when I was a kid I used to think it was so sad that the adults and authority figures in my life didn't see play as something available to them unless it was to appease a child, like it was some kind of inherently and exclusively juvenile thing, and I chalked it up to inevitability of age, assuming that I too would join the ranks of those afflicted with productivity-obsessed "maturity," and when that didn't start to happen to me, I sure as hell did start to wonder what else I had taken for granted about what it means to be human.

why do you draw?
i don't remember being any happier but i remember not being nearly as sad
Small but fierce
Doing it scared.
Here's to many more to come!
