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...

celeste from deadlock in a vintage-style carnival poster. the text reads "The Dazzling Celeste" at the top and "only on Coney Island" at the bottom. celeste is in a dynamic, dancer-like pose with a ribbon swirled around her.

Art people! Found a new reference source called angleref.com, you can rotate a skull and see tons of faces at that angle. I’m sure there’s more to the site but how cool is that? Happy drawing :)

something hazardous this way comes (3 colorways for my casual hazard skin concept) #art #fanart #conceptart

3 skin concepts for overwatch's hazard in a casual outfit. the first is orange/brown, the second is red, and the last is purple. the majority of the outfit is grey-toned.

casual hazard skin concept doodle for my uncle's birthday... wish this guy just wore some docs or something

hazard from overwatch wearing a casual punk outfit. his spikes are replaced with knives and he wears ripped jeans, doc martens, and a cropped tshirt. his shirt reads "turn tail and run," referencing the song turn tail by the young knives.

I think you can nest this under a larger culture of not really thinking about where anything comes from or what went into getting it to you, whether it's food, clothing, or other goods. So much labor is made invisible and we are encouraged to consume and then discard so quickly.

thinking about the popularity of so many "redraw trends" and plagiarism of compositions by all sorts of artists (it comes up often for gposing but 2D artists do it too). i have to sum up my discomfort with it as follows: it's artists treating other artists the same way A/I treats art as data
