Love how playing the sims 4 again required multiple hours of troubleshooting

My #comic has a name in my head but SEO, URLs, and duplicate names intimidate me so much I keep second guessing myself. How do people decide on names??

being an artist is great I love telling myself "this is just a ref sheet it doesn't need to be fancy" and then spending hours trying to decipher how to make its background simple but still visually appealing only to realize the "fancy" approach would be faster at this point

Currently my goal is for my friends to read it. Once that is accomplished I can dream bigger ;)

Comic creators, what is success for you?

For me, it's having built an audience that empowers me to tell a long-form story. By January we'll have completed the equivalent of 35 DM issues of the White Ash Saga. Not many indie series reach those #'s. And we're just getting started.
We're not alone...

Bird & Darling OC commission for Cole <3 thank you!
Digital illustration: A woman is seated on an ornate swing. She's wearing a long green robe and has long hair. Her friend flies by a white calling duck wearing a garland of flowers around the neck topped with a bow. There is a long arch in the background of an abstract garden framing a sundog. Hollyhocks grow in the distance.

I can’t believe some people can do thumbnails, sketches, inking, then colors for their #comics. I do thumbnails, sketch, ink, sketch, ink, color, ink, sketch, earase, sketch, ink, color….

SO much of the cultural and artistic nostalgia that society chases was just art made when people got paid to do it. Lavish movie posters made by human artists, video games made by people without sixteen different investment companies breathing down their neck, movies made by studios taking a chance.

Hello #portfolioday ✨
I am a cartoonist who plays DnD and is in development for a speculative sci-fi comic. These are my main passions!
I’d love to get in touch with other artists!

Milan is like if a marine biologist was also a mad scientist.

High angle shot of Milan, a dark skinned short haired man with glasses in a striped suit, sitting on a couch. It’s a perspective shot, so light fixtures are in frame, blurred by the camera. There’s a coffee table and rug. In the background the wall is an aquarium, with a light that coats the whole image in a teal blue.

@keezyyoung.bsky.social Happy Birthday ;)
I read my copy right after it came out and had to sit with it for a while. Very good book, I felt uncomfortably seen at some points.
Alex from the graphic novel “Hello Sunshine” holding a magic book and looking into the mirror. Written on the mirror is the book total and common phrase “Hello Sunshine” as if someone wrote it on the glass fog. In the background is the flower field from the book cover.

Drow Family 🕷️
This was inspired by a sketch I made in 2023 (which I will be posting a comparison next) that was a family portrait sketch for the Abbylan family. This updated piece got away from me though and became quite different!

This piece was put on display in a gallery in Osaka for a short exhibition.
A purple tiefling smiles at the camera. Her hand is to the side of her face and a ball of light emanates from it. Her hair is wavy and white, and takes up most of the background. From what can be seen behind her, there are shooting stars.

Where can I find small comic creators to interact with? Bluesky is still a bit of an enigma to me
