Comics in general is an excellent media for hiding little details in the art or the dialog.

In a movie or animation you might miss things because of timing, but a panel you can analyze as long as you like.

Even a shift in characters demenour or the way a speech bubble is drawn could be a clue!

Webtoon readers, hear me when I say this and know it comes from a place of love and concern:

sometimes you must slow down and actually read the words written in the speech bubbles. You are going too fast. You are not comprehending the words in the order they are written. You are guessing.

If anyone else wants an Adobe Animate alternative, I can’t recommend Moho enough. It’s affordable, it’s efficient, it’s been used in feature films from Cartoon Saloon like Wolfwalkers, and the best part…NO Ai whatsoever.

Painting comic for my buddy @polistini.bsky.social of their very interesting clone character....502!!!!!!
A man falls into the ocean. A reddit post reads, "Set my goldfish free into the ocean. After a lot of time deliberating I decided that being cooped up as no good for him. Took a ride this morning to the beach to set him free. I don't know why I waited so long but no should have to live cooped up like that, even if I cared for him the best I could. A reply reads, "Your fish is going to die." A boy through several photos lives in the shadow of his father, blood splatters a wall as he drives his fist into another, before gaining praise by said Father. A reddit post reads, "Why the absolute hell did you think that was a good idea? A goldifhs can't survive in the ocean let alone salt water. What was wrong with the tank you had it already in?" A reply reads from the OP, "He was supposed to be the only one." From the photo of praise, blood drains and floods into the same child now an adult deep in the blood. The box slowly crumbles as the man drowns in the water. Another reply to the reddit post. "Even if the saltwater hadn't instantly killed it, you've basically thrown it into an enviornment it can never succeed in. It's been hand fed and cared for its whole life and would just wash along the shore. Are you out of your mind?" A reddit post on r/Aquarium from the man who posted the original goldfish post. "Bowl goldfish seems unhappy with aquarium. Title. Originally was keeping him in a bowl but switched to an aquarium thinking he'd be just fine, but obviously still unhappy. He waits a long time to eat, he lashes at the smallest things, and most of the time won't leave from hiding. The man surrounded by water and small shapes of goldfish looks down to the ground, hands extended. A reply to the original post. "Water change. Goldfish are usually really messy and can bring lots of gunk with them." A reply to the reply from OP. "He's clean enough" with several down votes. Shoes wait along a closed door, the room is dark. A reply to the orighinal post. "Make more room, even in the largest of aquariums goldfish will get agitated if they can't explore or find somewhere comfortable." OP replies, "He doesn't want to come out." to more downvotes. A person in a hoodie stands along an open doorway, hands behind their back as they look through it. A sun sets behind them. A reply to OP's original post. "Was it with other goldfish? It could be lonely." OP responds, "One came along. They're doing just fine." A man stands wet, washed and dreary as he looks up at a clouded sky. The waves recede along his body. A reddit post from someone simply titled "502" on r/LifeAdvice. "What happens if you do something you regret? What do you do? When you can't take it hback and weren't made for this life and the life you were is gone? You've done horrible things all for the purpose of somehting that will never come to be and never should have been? What if you have to live with so much so horrible it makes you never want to walk forward again?" And a single reply. You'll still have to try.

If you don't love your comic you can't expect anyone else to. So get that notion of "Cringe" out the door, bury any thoughts of "For the Audience", douse the flames of "Someone else already did this--" and go forth with all the WILD AND UNTAMED love to INVIGORATE your craft

Rpgmaker.net coming back online is very significant, as a whole generation of 2000s and 2010s indie games was contextless and nearly lost without it.

It's wonderful to see it back in action. Hopefully to stay!

"Not again"

#art #oc #comic
Digital comic of my ocs Olive, Ambrose and Ruby First panel is Ambrose with a shocked expression, looking at something, his expression is dark, and there is a "not again" text behind him. Middle and biggest panel is Olive, with a precious smile, he looks like he's shining and full of joy. The art has sort of glitchy part that shows Ruby superposed to Olive. Last panel is a closeup on Ambrose's eyes, looking distressed, the "not again" is now written on his eyes

Your daily reminder to kill the evil worm in your ear that tells you that every art you make and every comic you draw has to be extremely professional, especially if you aren't an industry worker.

Draw how you want, in the style you want, in the margins you choose, and enjoy yourself.

My relationship with art improved when I understood that, when I don't want to/don't feel like detailing something or putting more work into rendering then I simply don't have to and that's totally fine, totally chill

I'd be lying if I said I haven't been having a hard time lately. It's been a very tough year. Rainy reminds me it's ok to cry. If I cry, I'll cry, but I'll still keep going, I just need to take a moment to cry. #OC #art

Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.

I made a mock book cover for a nonexistent novel based on my character Lucas's backstory! I wanted it to have the feeling of a children's fantasy novel. #ArtSky #Art #OCSky #OC #HATHM #FantasyArt #Fantasy #CoverArt #BookIllustration
A digital illustration styled like a book cover. The title is "Spirit-Sight," and the author's name is the artist's. A very young teen, peering wide-eyed into the darkness, brandishes a lantern glowing with unnatural light. The smoke billowing from the lantern takes the shape of various strange creature parts.

feeling uninspired? burned out, even? but still wanna create?

follow your curiosity. watch a documentary, read a book, go down a wiki rabbit hole, check out that park you've been meaning to go to. take photos, write notes, build your own library. most of all - rest. ur art will be where u left it.

If you are always making art for others- commissions, professional work, gifts, trades, even reactions/responses to questions- I cannot stress enough how much you need to take breaks and make things that are personal and that you want, for yourself.
