no! this can't be happening. my dreams, ruined. my ambitions, ruined. i stand naked and bereft with my anus spread like a butterfly's wings. farts flow rapid and loud. i am a hurricane. i am the force of the changing seasons. i am a woman, a leper, a soldier... and a mother.

i promote my webcomic by showing up to the big-name expos in the nude and doing my special promotion dance, which is quite similar to my angry dance

hey everyone let's talk process. do you do digital or traditional or mixed comics? what is your #1 go-to comic making apparatus? i've settled finally into traditional pencilling and inking with fineliners on pretty cheap craft card at a3 size, then scanning it and colouring it in photoshop. i prefer the look i get when i go all-digital, but get incredibly bogged down in the process because i have a thing about lines i draw not having flecks or bumps and i end up going to 200% view and meticulously smoothing everything down with a 5px brush so a single pretty simple and basic page takes me like 25 hours to do. i can't go to 200% view in real life so i can't do that and now that i've switched to fineliners i can still make sure everything's smooth and it's cut my page time down to ~8 hours. colouring in photoshop is great because if you just throw a low-opacity nicely-coloured multiply layer over everything it looks like you put all this hard work into figuring out a colour palette when actually you didn't do poo poo lol

don't get too overexcited with the multiply trick or your art will end up looking like my webcomic 3 years ago, which always kind of looked like you were viewing it through a glass of raspberry cordial

This is a double post on purpose to say Clip Studio Paint has gone on sale like it usually does: Get the standard program for $25 or the full fancy-pants program for $79.

It's my main program and I really love it, it has some neat built-in tricks like screentones and perspective rulers. There's a free trial available, too.
thanks for letting us know, i'm going to buy it :toot: i will no longer be a digital outlaw
