"Oh yeah, this scene kicking off the new chapter/book of Pravus, it should be fine as one episode!" I just blocked everything out with my balloons and panels for pacing. ..... It's ten pages.

Just because you can't see some of the scars doesn't mean they're all not there. You might never be rid of them, but you'll get better with managing them.

Right now- I've been putting a stronger emphasis on taking time with my lines. My color and rendering always felt a little held back by my linework. So I think my lines have been improving! Once I make them better, I can make them faster.

Terrifying characters with partners who have earned their trust and who have a heart of gold under normal circumstances, but you cross them or their people, and you have to wonder if maybe they're actually the scarier of the two 😌❤️

I try to do these comparisons every once in a while to reflect on how far I've come and if there's one thing I can say....no matter how much my art improves, ears are still an enigma 😆 I should try drawing Cimon again soon. It's been a while.

This is a thank you to the ComicLab podcast. Brad & Dave have been a great source of joy to listen to. They are kind, knowledgeable, hardworking people who genuinely want to help others succeed. They've cultivated an amazing community of creatives who lift eachother up, & I wanted to pay it forward.

The worst part about all this concepting work for my comic is that I effectively just finished all of the cast's final designs and I CAN'T EVEN SHARE IT BECAUSE OF SPOILERS .....Okay, I'm sharing a sneak peek Who makes these rules anyways? I do, that's who. #pravus #pravuscomic

Grabbed this from @coelasquid.bsky.social Let's see how much I'm able to talk about him before he catches on and finds me

As a graphic designer, you'd think I'd see this as a theme song. Instead, it's as if I'm watching tv and the person on screen is suddenly turning to the camera and saying my full name.

I have a note taking app that I frantically scribble down ideas or dialog before I forget them as they come to me, and let me just say, as I'm browsing the previews... I could share. Or I could sum it up in one image and you'd get the same jist.

I just finished the Mass Effect trilogy. And... Man. It's reminded me why I love sci-fi. Media in this genre sometimes feels like it isn’t made for my demographic. The Call of Duty in Space types. It was such a treat to experience a sci-fi story for the first time that was so character focused.

I'm not gonna recover from this game am I? A followup to the Leviathan piece I did earlier haha I just feel like Shepard would fluster him more when presented with the opportunity, and this one was right there 🤣

So...I recently started playing Mass Effect for the first time. I know, it's 2025. I'm very late. The art has started. This is basically what Shepard did... right? #masseffect
