Re: Join WEBCOMIC UNDERDOGS: Best Friend to the Indie Creato

Maybe you're a writer looking for an artist? Check out the most recent blog series at Webcomic Underdogs - It's Calle...

Re: Join WEBCOMIC UNDERDOGS: Best Friend to the Indie Creato
Just wanted to mention that a great blog has been added to the site about the difficulties for some people to adhere to deadlines. Writer Marisa Brenizer set a challenge for herself to write the blog in less than 15 minutes. After that it's pencils down! Check out Don't Fear The Timer.

So you have a webcomic. Now what? Do you maybe find yourself wishing that: 1.Your pageviews would miraculously increase? 2.Your "Comments" section would live up to its name? 3.Your Facebook fans included more than you, your characters, and your mom? 4.You could b!tch, moan, and rejoice with other co...

Re: Safety Goggles
This is "Safety Goggles," which is about a handful of mad-scientists-in-the-making as they attend college. The art is pretty bad for the first thirty some-odd strips, back when for some reason I decided drawing with a dip pen was a good idea, despite never having done any sort of work with a dip pe...

Re: Praesidium - A Hard Sci-Fi Mini Series
Wow, that's some incredible artwork. I'm getting a distinct 2001 meets Alien vibe. Really love those starscapes and all the minute mechanical details on the ship. I can appreciate great background work, since I've seen how hard our artist struggles with setting. It's one of the biggest weaknesses p...

Client Flaked So I Used The Art To Make My Own Fantasy Comic
It is a time when the fallen angels live among the earthly gods. These angels, the Aurel, strain to preserve their identity and maintain their ancient celestial ties. The gods of Terra, however, have other plans in mind. Aurel is a fantasy comic that rose from the ashes of a bad freelancing experien...

Re: Any Tips for Site Redesign?
I agree with everything you just said, McDuffies. Ads with sound are the ABSOLUTE worst. And I hate it even more when they don't kick in right away (usually from slow internet), and a minute later you suddenly you hear all these weird sounds and for a minute you think itunes is going nuts and you're...

Re: Inking/Lining - What's your preference?
...I do my comic digitally on photoshop CS3 using the standard 'hard round' 2px with the 'pen tilt' control dynamic.... 2px, that'll certainly get you some fine lines! I use anything and everything. Kinda depends on the project I'm working on and my mood. I usually start with a sable hair brush (I ...

Re: Any Tips for Site Redesign?
I've recently re-designed my site, and although it's not entirely finished i'm happier with how it looks. I've gone as minimal as I can, because I figure - I don't want to look at advert banners, I imagine no one else does either. Yeah, nobody likes ads. But without ads, the only thing you have to ...

The Speculum of Time
About a year ago I was fortunate enough to work with a talented writer on a sci-fi comic that he had hoped to get published. It almost got picked up by Top Shelf Publishing, but as much as they said they liked it, they weren't taking on many new projects at the time. So, a year later, we've decided ...

Re: Praesidium - A Hard Sci-Fi Mini Series
@Vorto- Thanks! I'm glad you noticed the hair. Since the mission started in the 80s, it would only make sense that the hairstyle is not modern. The comic is a lot of fun to work on, but I have very little free time in which to do so. It is serving as sort of a test run for another, larger, project I...

Re: New Steampunk Web Comic
Hadn't been to the site in a while. Why is Houdini in a group with both Tesla AND Edison?? Tesla and Edison would never have been caught dead in the same room together! They quickly became rivals after Tesla's short employment under Edison. Did you hear about the Oatmeal guy raising enough funds on ...
