Some BETTER LETTERER for you. And before the inevitable "that's not how I do it" replies, keep in mind that, by and large, this is how it's done in pro American comics (Marvel, DC, etc.) I've worked for all of them. More tips: blambot.com/pages/letter...

Years ago when I said I wouldn't spend as much time online, removed old posts, and didn't think online spaces were healthy or good for activism-ish things like working in your community, people took my head off and said YOU ARE NOT OF THE BODY. Now they're all "taking internet breaks". Yeah. OK. Ha.

Started mucking around with gouache. Had been using it to fix my comics for years without realizing what a rad medium this is. Holbein gouache made in Japan. Ref: satinezillah.com #Portrait #gouache #yycarts

Another oil pastel study, seeing how far I can take a monochromatic feel with my palette of pastel sticks at the time. Painted on rag paper, my favourite for oil pastels these days by far.
