About to pitch “The Descent on a Ghost Ship" sisters comic w/my co-writer/sister. We’ve been working on it for 2+ yrs but now we have an amazing artist, @matthtaylor.com.
We’ve worked so hard; it’s a really strong pitch…but I look at *gestures at comics industry* and already feel pre-defeated.

Working on a larger reference sheet for Ed-boy, thought I'd show y'all some of his expressions from the sheet.

My wife, @mrsbarker.bsky.social , and I are putting together a graphic novel! We're currently looking for an editor to help us make it the best story it possibly can be, but we've talked about it excitedly for years now! Attached is the cover I did for it!

I've been hunting for the right style/voice for "A Long Shot Out of the Birdcage" this year - my 1950s lesbian crime drama gn✨ It's been a huge lesson in writing and my technical habits in comics, with lots of false starts - I'm looking forward to hitting the ground running with all I've learned!

Im currently working on a webcomic that is meant to bridge my love for animation and comics. It's story is personal for me as well. Im currently trying to build a buffer of 100+ pages but that was put on hold due to failing health. It's scripted pretty far ahead tho! Just gotta draw.

I’m writing/drawing/coloring/lettering an 175p OGN then my computer died. So I’m gofundme’ing the replacement.

The book is a horror/fantasy set in the area of VT/NH around me. First arc takes place in fictionalized version of my hometown.

I’ve made a webcomic for close to 10 years, and i just wrote/thumbnailed my 1,000th page!

One thing that boosted my productivity was learning the basics of Blender to build background/prop assets, and customizing clip studio paint with auto commands to quickly color flats.

I'm foolish enough to try & make 2. I jump between if I get stuck, which helps but it's all very slow since I'm a 1 person shop. Hardest part is trying to get anyone to read them since I find social media difficult and time is short. Love comics too much to stop.

I'm currently working on my comic The Emperor's Feast, which I post on Tapas! tapas.io/series/The-E...

Here are some pages I really like. The comic is themed around food and the creativity involved. Right now my biggest struggle is my health, I keep trying to post consistently, and I haven't got it

IF YOU ARE TRYING TO MAKE A COMIC...

Please talk about it on this thread! I would love to hear what stage you are at, what is working well, and what has proven more difficult than you thought.

Share a bit of art, if you can!

Sing your own praises, if you like!
