Good news, this one also doubles as "Making stuff that could be album covers," 8/?

A white line drawing on a solid black background of a goblin dancing while carrying a big stick over its shoulders, almost ritualistically. The lineart layer has been duplicated in orange and offset underneath the white lines. Text outside the border reads "Goblin Week, Number Five" as though this were an album cover for a band called Goblin Week, with the album titled Number Five.

I think critics shot their load about the unique possibilities of webcomics far too early, focusing exclusively on technical possibilities like infinite canvas and multimedia storytelling. Cultural interest peaked and moved on, and missed the longitudinal literary features of webcomics.

I just wish making comics and posting art was enough.

I don’t want to subject my face & voice to public scrutiny for a revolving door of video trends I have to *shoot & edit myself,* & hope that it makes me hashtag-relatable enough to sell a book. I want my book to relate to ppl on its own merit.

As more and more creators are expected to be on camera to promote their comics, can we talk for a second about how this opens up female creators to intense harassment about their looks?

Not to mention a lot of "You only have a career in comics because you're good looking" comments?

Let’s sketch the magnificent beast that is Deinocheirus!

Deinocheirus mirificus was a huge ornithomimosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous in Asia. This herbivorous dinosaur had huge arms with large claws that were probably primarily used for digging or gathering plants

#paleoart #dinosaurs
5 sketches of Deinocheirus in different positions. Some of the sketches are details of its head and neck
