it turns out i really enjoy making educational posts about the comics making process and ways of thinking. here's another one featuring characters from my graphic novel in a very anachronistic art museum. (continues below!)

image of wick, neeta, and emery in an art museum. they're not shaded and they're inked with the same line widths.
NEETA: It says here that there's a lot of ways artists can create depth and visual interest in their work.

same image, edited to involve spot blacks and halftones in the inks
NEETA: Such as inking with lighting in mind--using heavier lines where there would be shadows. Spot blacks and halftone add places of contrast and visual interest.

same image, but neeta, emery, and the background are slightly lighter and grayer.
NEETA: Atmospheric perspective is a decent way to achieve depth. Far away things have less contrast and less saturation. Compare a tree nearby to a tree down a road. It's done here using simple screen layers.
EMERY: That's subtle.

same image, but wick has been shaded much darker and emery and neeta have a warm overlay.
NEETA: you can also achieve depth and focus with color contrast. the figure in front is dark and cool, and the figures in back are bright and warm.

Wacom recently asked me to talk about why I make queer comics, and given there are multiple bills right now floating around in congress that are effectively "we will kill your livelihood if we get a sniff of queer" I had some pretty strong, simply feelings to relay.

After attending this, I'm thinking back to when I was obsessed with comic lettering design. I agonised over making a handlettered dialogue font based in accessible reading. That was in cartoon college & I've ABSOLUTELY lost the design, but Boney linked to resources including digital comic fonts!

Hey #MeetTheWebcomic! I make Keeping Time, a longform drama that's ostensibly a band romance between former friends, but might be better categorized as an adult coming-of-age story where that self discovery is painful and hard-fought. #KeepingTime #webcomics 🎸 keepingtimecomic.com

A promotional graphic that reads

#MeetTheWebcomic
Keeping Time
Romance, Drama, LGBTQ+
Daniel and Denver haven’t spoken since Alex died. When a chance encounter reunites them as friends and bandmates, they find themselves falling in love - for better or worse.
keepingtimecomic.com

with an illustration of two men playing electric guitars, bathed in stage lights.

A comic page from KEEPING TIME that tracks an interaction between Denver, a blond punk with a neck tattoo, and Daniel, a Japanese-American guy who seems perpetually sad. Denver and Daniel sit on a steel work access staircase in an alley, catching up on the years that have passed since they lost saw one another. In the final panel, Denver suggests Daniel should swing by band practice, because "the band's still going strong."

Another page, this time tracking an interaction between Denver and his roommate, Tomás. Tomás expresses hesitancy at the idea of inviting Daniel back into the band, which immediately earns him an angry, snapped response from Denver.

A third and final page. Denver and Daniel are walking together on a winter's night. Denver shares that he now lives with Tomás, but that it comes with difficulties because of Tomás and their cheap apartment's plumbing. Daniel laughs for the first time maybe all comic.

I poked away at this one over the course of a couple months, after Theodora and goblin rogue Bonbon formed team ✨SHORT AND SNEAKY✨ in order to skulk their way through the capital city of the empire. we're very good at it 😌✨ [ #art #ttrpg #oc ]

Theodora (my halfling) and Bonbon (a goblin with a bald rat-like physique) lean around the corner of a shadowy, slightly grimey alleyway. They're in similar poses, with one arm extended behind, Theodora bracing against the wall and Bonbon holding up his cloak in a bit of a goofy-dramatic way. Bright yellow sunlight glances across the fronts of their faces in a striking way as various wizards amble in the background. Deeper in shadow, Button the mimic is partially disguised as a barrel, waiting in delighted anticipation on what the next move will be.

let's get burgers "cop" 1/3

A comic depicting a small white cat with yellow eyes (he/they) and a small snoopy-esque dog (he/him) with a yellow patch on his right eye and left paw. The cat's name is Knife and the dog's name is Cheddar.

Panel 1: Knife and Cheddar are walking together, chatting. They walk towards a sign that has "WATCH OUT FOR SNAKES" written in small text.

Cheddar: And then she told me, "I thought ketchup and salami were the same thing"

Knife: That's so fucked up

Panel 2: As they walk past the "WATCH OUT FOR SNAKES" sign, they stop when they notice a large, bendy-legged police office with a blank expression standing in their way.

Cheddar: Oh.

Continued in next image

Panel 3: We see a close-up of Knife and Cheddar's eyes as they look at each other in panic, sweating profusely. The text under the panel reads *sweat sweat*

Continued in next image

Panel 4: Knife and Cheddar make their way towards the police officer, staring at the ground and sweating nervously.

Panel 5: They draw closer to the police officer, who seems to be getting bigger, his weird bendy legs spreading further apart.

SGWLSLMBALTA: Okaaaay, so! The new character I rolled out is a 6'3" half-orc sorceress. Excited to get playing!
DM: Playing a girl again, huh.
SGWLSLMBALTA: Yeah, why?

PANEL 2: two other players.
PLAYER 2: Can you just come out already? We're supportive.
PLAYER 3: Waiting for you to transition is taking forever.

PANEL 3: SGWLSLMBALTA looks off to the side. Shot over the DM's shoulder.
SGWLSLMBALTA: Hmm? I don't understand what you are all possibly talking about! "Come out." Good one.

PANEL 4: The DM and the two other players contemplate death while SGWLSLMBALTA speaks off-panel.
SGWLSLMBALTA: Anyway...She was actually born a PRINCE! of the realm, but was CURSED by a WIZARD to be a girl...
