Flintober 👁 day 2: Flint #art #oc #thecuriosities
digital drawing of a simplified figure in heels, arching on the floor in a twisted position that is a little cursed. the color palette is limited to black, blue, and red. the face is blank except of eyes staring widely at you. there are obscured lines and illegible text layered over the figure and exploding out of it into the darkness

I miss getting to slap comics on tumblr and then being at cons where people had actually read the thing before I printed it? ...anyway I shoved my dragon ball & sailor moon fanzines onto a little website for free. I figure if you like them, you'll buy something down the road? megzines.neocities.org

Another controversial opinion: a lot of the work men have to do to undo cultures of bad behaviour will definitely require good men to be Actually Good Friends to men who have harmed others. As in, weekly-D&D, Saturday-barbecue, yeah-I'll-help-you-move friends, who will also Take No Shit.

They are going to deregister as many Democrats as they can. And they're going to hype these numbers to try to convince you, "you don't need to vote; you've got this; one little vote won't matter." They'll try to push R's who would stay home that they need to vote. Don't be complacent.

🎃
A 7 panel comic by the artist. First panel: The artist is running from a distance towards a group of people playing basketball in the park. The artist is holding a pumpkin above their head and screaming "AAAAAAAAA". Second panel: The artist has leapt up and is in position to slam dunk the pumpkin into the basketball hoop. Panel three: the pumpkin splatters violently against the backboard of the basketball hoop, sending orange pumpkin goop everywhere. Panel four: the players stand staring, covered in pumpkin goop and shocked. Panel five: the artist stares at them wide-eyed, also covered in the goop and says "it's October FIRST". Their hand reaches towards their face. Panel six: the artist rips off their own face like a rubber mask to reveal a skeleton beneath. Panel 7: the group of players stand shocked and horrified, watching as the skeleton falls to the ground in a pile of bones, the sound effects says "CLATTER".

New fun fact about me, we just passed a night club in Jersey called Satin Dolls and I said “lol that looks like the strip club from sopranos” and then, curious but sure I was wrong, looked up where the real strip club from sopranos was. And fellas you’ll never guess what happened next

decided to slap some color on these sketches of moments from a school-centric Daggerheart one-shot @mxwhittle.bsky.social has started running for our ttrpg test group! 🎨✨
Page of various, digitally drawn sketches, some colored and some toned, a darker shade of the tan backdrop. Characters include a pink tiefling/infernis girl with long braids and a ruffly collar, a firbolg with one broken horn and emo bangs, a mushroom headed person (fungril) with a big sword on their back and patchy pants, and a aristocratic cat person.

Sketches include:
-A detailed headshot of the infernis looking nervous in another 
-the infernis with the firbolg, who says, “You’re underborne? That’s so metal.” In a smaller drawing, the infernis clarifies, “it’s actually mostly rock” and the firbolg says, “I meant like punk.”
-A full body shot of the fungril who quietly says, “Why is everyone so tall?”
-The firbolg, with a guitar case on her back, looking down at the fungril. “S’all good, little dude.”
-The cat person, appalled, shouting, “‘Chapstick?!’ I am Charity Featherwhiskers!”

we need to return to sci-fi book covers being little people in the foreground with immense looming wonders in the background
the cover for The Last Legends of Earth, which shows people fishing in a hamlet of thatch-roof catches while vast sci-fi pylons loom in the background the cover of Shadow of the Torturer which shows Severian walking away from a city of spires some art by Eddie Jones that shows people getting out of a UFO and walking towards a massive gate, beyond which is a blood red moon tiny figures in the foreground observe a giant woman sleeping in a lake of blood

mine are the same! Most noise cancelling functions also make my ears weird; I've had JBL 710BTs for upwards of 4 years (i think) and those have been the best! I'm also thinking about something like Shokz tho for when it's too hot to have full headphones but not buds

I think I’ve also seen shows that ask for a 60-40 split on original to fan work and I feel like that’s a cool middle ground (or like easing in for 100% original shows) that I’d love to see more cons adopt!

NEW ADVICE-FROM-LIEBER LIST! I've posted these tips as a thread before, but I figured it's about time I made it available as a single, shareable image.
MISTAKES I'VE MADE THAT YOU CAN AVOID
Don't be like me.
1. Don't trash your own work when complemented. In that context your self-deprecation is insulting someone else's taste! Just say thanks and change the subject. Maybe credit an influence?
2. As far as your readers are concerned, comics are drawn with a printing press or a monitor. Don't fetishize the original art or the tools you make it. Anything that gets the story told the way it needs to be told is the right tool for the job.
3. Don't use one job to audition for another. It's unfair to your collaborators and a betrayal of the reader to get flashy or sexy or explosive if the moment in the story doesn't call for it.
4. The important storytelling choices on a page can be worked out in thumbnails. Gesture, camera angle, framing, broad arrangement of tones-get this stuff right before you worry about anatomy, lighting, drapery, or facial expressions.
5. Some artists can put down a final inkline with no underdrawing, but that's because they're skilled and experienced enough to do all that underdrawing in their head. You probably aren't. Get your underdrawing right and save the masterstrokes for the masters.
6. What you're feeling while you work doesn't matter. What the audience feels when they read it does. You can be happy and still do a great drawing of someone in agony. You should understand what you're depicting. It's not necessary to experience it in real time at the board.
7. Get a fresh eye on your work. You never know when some accidental juxtaposition is going to completely change your intended meaning.
8. Don't let getting things 100% right keep you from getting things done. It's easy to get bogged down in research or prep sketches. Make a schedule at the start of a project so you know how much time you have. Do the best you can with the time allotted and move on. But...

Digital illustration of a nude trans masculine person, cropped from thigh to neck. They are posed head on, one hand resting on the strap of a black leather strap-on harness. The other hand is holding the hilt of a sword, pointing down. They have top surgery scars, body hair, and a bandaid on their thigh for their T-shot. They are framed in thorny vines, with some 6 pointed stars around them. The background and figure are both a ochre yellow, with black lineart offset by red

I think we need to accept more that indie animation is the result of a system bleeding out its talent and not trusting them with the resources to create things that audiences want, combined with insane levels of unbeforeseen unemployment.

“Why isn’t there more episodic indie”, “why can’t indie be more mature”, “why cant indie shows have better dialogue”, “why can’t indie be more sincere”, etc. Like it exists. It all exists. There’s so much diversity in indie animation, the problem is that people won’t seek it out lol.
