Been saying this for years.
Part of the journey of making manga / comics requires taking the ego out of it. The work should be focused on the characters & consumers.
The joy comes from making it &having real people BUYING it.
Saturday AM succeeds because we put the audience first not our fandom

I am working on a "How to Draw Grass Tutorial" haha
I know...exiting right? But you might be suprised to learn that drawing good looking grass at a

The youtube video should drop within the next day or so.
Be on the lookout for it! 🖼
