I’m old friends with an editor at Vertical, and I’ve done some design work for them in the past… I’m also a HUGE fan of Kyoko Okazaki, so it was a treat to be involved on the production end! Sorry to butt in haha, I almost didn’t say anything but I felt like you might appreciate the trivia :3

Just to clarify, I only did the cover designβ€” it’s Okazaki’s illustration. I chose that particular piece of art because it embodied the poem that is echoed through the book, as well as the sense of discontent and ennui she captures so well :)

Okay, so I'm going to post a thread now about using Clip Studio Paint, about color settings, ICC color profiles, outputting to CMYK, getting 100% K in your blacks, etc. Technical shit. If you're struggling with this, read the thread. I'll reply to myself here, and it'll take a little time... 1/many

Just learned that Richard Corben took figure drawing classes his entire life. So if you're ever like "gosh he must just be born with TK TALENT" please understand that the thing he was actually born with was the desire to take figure drawing classes his entire life.

It takes a skilled cartoonist to adapt a screenplay into a comic book.

Cara was a response to Artstation’s involvement in ai, so it functions primarily as a portfolio, but has a social angle where you can post to a timeline as well. I’ve been on it for a year and love itβ€” I’ve found so many new artists to follow. Still feels very new, in terms of the app itself!

A Box of Seven Devils is a mindfulness exercise that takes an internalized conflict and shapes it as an external entity.

It should only be used once every seven days. You draw a tile and find out which devil haunts you and how to combat it.

My advice to people who want to do graphic novels is to write and draw a lot of short stories. Finishing them will teach you a lot more than plugging away at an epic

23.05.2024 15:28 β€” πŸ‘ 361    πŸ” 110    πŸ’¬ 10    πŸ“Œ 8

This is always my first advice! Finish a 1 page comic first. Then do another… then another… soon you’ll draw a 5 pager, then 10… before you know it a full 22 page issue. It’s like the Rocky training montage except you’re drawing comics and it’s way way slower. πŸ˜† (second advice is STRETCH EVERY DAY)

If you are going to eat rocks, make sure there are no poisonous berries in the nearby vicinity. You probably want to wash the rock to be sure it is free from berries altogether.
