A redraw of the Superman for All Seasons panel where Superman catches a missile. Only now he himself is a Palestinian and held up by other Palestinians. One of the men in the crowd holds the Palestine flag as a long banner

The frogs shall come up on you and on your people and on all your officials."

(but if it turns out I'm getting everything wrong: this thread never happened.)(also I'd post some before/after pics but I'm sprucing up NDA sequences for my portfolio. you gotta trust me)

(if nothing else, knowing EXACTLY where to put the VPs for rectangular objects feels soooo good)

Julia @cafesaturn.bsky.social · 3d

I've had that Scott Robertson book for years but put off reading it in depth because the information was "too technical for storyboarding." girl!!!!!!! (idk if I'd recommend any other board artist do this, but if the sense of depth in your boards can get wonky... couldn't hurt)

Julia @cafesaturn.bsky.social · 3d

update: I made a really nice, accurate one-point perspective grid (with perfect square divisions), including three cones of view and indications for VPs every 15 degrees. (instructions from Scott Robertson's How To Draw.) I'm dropping them into every SBP panel and theyre helping a LOT. oof

Julia @cafesaturn.bsky.social · 5d

bad news: I think a deeper understanding of linear perspective (including cone of vision, precise geometry, etc.) will solve a lot of my storyboarding problems. this sucks

(ohhh I just realized why I was good at school-- that way of learning just REALLY WORKS for me. that was really lucky for me until I graduated college 🙃)

Julia @cafesaturn.bsky.social · 5d

"for an artist, learning is a life-long pursuit, and that's beautiful" I grumble to myself through gritted teeth.

Julia @cafesaturn.bsky.social · 5d

(also I'm starting a CDA composition class on Monday, which I think will also help! It feels wrong to call myself "self taught," but I guess I am. Taking formal classes helps me a lot-- it forces me to re-examine the habits I take for granted.)

Julia @cafesaturn.bsky.social · 5d

I think this is why my layouts sometimes "look wrong" even when everything aligns with the horizon line/VPs. this is the first time in YEARS I regret not going to "proper" art school. if I had to suffer through one of those industrial design-ass perspective courses I wouldn't be in this mess

*and if my facts are wrong: my bad, but the bad vibe persists

Julia @cafesaturn.bsky.social · 5d

it's not the fault of any Vertigo creatives, and I doubt it was what the people directly editing Vertigo books wanted, but. here we are

Julia @cafesaturn.bsky.social · 5d

The new Vertigo titles are all really exciting but then I remember that Gretchen Felker-Martin was supposed to have one too and then I have to sit down and think for a while
