Someone asked a question about coloring for camouflage and I've been going insane trying different techniques. Video dropping soon.

I can't stop thinking about the horrible twilight zone episode that every introverted artist has experienced in the 2020s. "The entire world shut down and now runs at your speed with zero social obligation but oops your entire career is in jeopardy thanks to generative AI"

I still can't believe Lydia can knock out a piece with a single brush in only 8 minutes, but if you want to see the whole thing, then we just dropped the second part of our MUSHROOM MADNESS series. www.patreon.com/posts/uncut-...

Want to know how much I hate the YouTube copyright system? I literally taught myself how to make lofi hip-hop beats so that I will never get a strike again.

Did you know that Lydia and I have a one-page comic in this anthology? And did you know the anthology is Eisner nominated? AND did you know I went to Forbidden Planet in NYC and it's on a special rack???

Got a ton of love for this piece lately, so we uploaded the full, uncut video of Lydia pencilling and inking it! Only took her about 45 mins. www.patreon.com/posts/uncut-...

Still think this is one of Lydia's best (and most underrated) drawings. Every time we feature it in a short, it doesn't catch on. So I'm just going to keep posting it places until people acknowledge how fire all that water is.

Our latest uncut inking video is a wild blend of sketchy, looseness and total understanding of perspective and architecture. Lydia is something else.

The issue that concerns me about AI is not AI by itself, it's the weird convergence of growing anti-intellectualism/lack of curiosity ALONGSIDE the rise of AI. Even in the 4-5 years I've been making content about comics, I feel like the comments are fewer and less thoughtful.

Our next longform lettering video clocks in at just over 16 minutes, but it's packed full of goodness. I will always brag about how much info we can pack into our videos, when other channels would bloat it out to 30-60 mins for the same info.

I got a text from Lydia about her vintage nib collection, to which I responded "um, what vintage nib collection??" and it turns out she has dozens of 100 year-old nibs and you know we're definitely making videos about them...

Latest video is the most important I've ever made. It's both an apology and clarification. Because I sort of misled millions of viewers........

The latest short about Tourettes was the hardest I've ever worked on a single video. The research required and the design challenges felt overwhelming at first. Very proud of the positive response this is getting. www.youtube.com/shorts/_4ZXc...
It was so much more complicated than anyone realized! #comics #manga #graphicdesign

Ima be honest. If I had known when I started YouTube & TikTok that I had secret powers of actually making videos people would want to watch, I might have chosen a niche that had a little more inherent excitement. Because it's really hard to make speech balloon stroke weight interesting sometimes...

Latest lettering video had an incredibly kind response from the tourette's community and those with tics. It took a lot of research, but this was the lettering system I tried to build. Working on the second video that clarifies these decisions even more.

Time to publicly admit my love of the found footage horror genre. Gimme that shaky camcorder footage and a spooky lack of context ALL DAY. Never understood the hate it gets. It’s such a great way to hide a lack of budget inside a specific aesthetic and it’s so immersive
