@Kelheor Thanks! Love your inking style for your strip, the brush has a nice texture and the lines look very "fluid."
@SynergyEclipse Nice job with this! Love the sense of movement.
That's very true!
You got a very nice inking brush here. Looks like the one I use for sketching. But never for comic lineart, because it's too soft and I make a lot of mess xD you have some really clean lines!
I finished and published today's update and sketched tomorrow's one, plus lined a couple of panels. Tomorrow's update has more going on, so I will have try and work faster.
Funny sketchy Yara ^^
@Kelheor Thanks! Yeah, I like using "pencil" type brushes for lineart. Nice job getting stuff done.
@SynergyEclipse Sounds like you did a bit of everything. Kinda funny how us comic creators have to have so many different skills. Keep up the good work!
Well we actually got our full time autumn right on September 1st. The temperature dropped drastically and it's been cold and misty since hahaha, nasty weather honestly. It's very nice to know it's a good autumn somewhere!
Just published today's update and will try to sketch tomorrow's after a short break
I finished the machine I was modeling yesterday and rendered a shot of it on the stage, and a close-up of it. Today I added these renders and another to my webtoon. There were also two backgrounds that I rendered earlier and blended in!
This render is the machine on the stage. It’s a steampunk-inspired computer but has glowing buttons on it like a lot of 1960’s sci-fi computers! It’s a bit grainy because of some limits with Blender’s built-in de-noiser, but I can manually smooth this out when I add the line art and blend in the shading.
Day 6! Giving my dominant hand a little break and used my non-dominant hand to finish flats for some backgrounds today. (I work two pages side by side, and then later convert to scrolling format.)
@Kelheor Aww, hope you feel better soon. And yes, that facial expression is too good.
Started editing a rendered crowd shot to draw in the line art and paint in the crowd (the people were just rendered like mannequins) but now I’m experiencing technical difficulties! My iPad dropped connection part way through and I can’t reconnect through Sidecar at the moment.
Trying to edit what I can until then by cleaning up lines and paint with just my mouse.
@SynergyEclipse ugh, I hope you will be able to reconnect it with no problems a bit later! A mouse is too crazy to use for drawing, I know some artists who are drawing with it and I am absolutely shocked with the fact they are able to do it
The 6th strip is finished for today and it really feels nice already! Funny fact - originally I had no idea how Beleard's nose should look like in profile, no shape was good. I ended up drawing him a nose on the first strip, but it looked really unnatural. So this time I decided he won't have a nose in profile...at all xD
Didn't get much done today. Gonna buckle down and spend 20 more minutes drawing now though.
@SynergyEclipse Technical difficulties are the worst. Glad you were still able to work on it though.
@Kelheor I agree, strangely the absence of a nose actually suits him. Also, I love his coat. The fur is so big, but I love it.
Meant to contribute to this thread earlier but I got... distracted
. But anyway, this is most recent page I worked on this month. In the middle pf lining an action scene and it's just as much of struggle as you think it would be.
@Kelheor I've been keeping up with the comic on instagram, it's so funny!
@gabriellabalagna your line work is so clean, love to see it!
@SynergyEclipse Hope you don't lose connection again
I hope I don’t again too. My Wi-Fi connection isn’t the most reliable, but I have to rely on it.
The action scene on that page looks great! Action scenes can be so tricky to plan out to get the best angles and flow of them!
It’s definitely tricky planning out the scene, the best angles for it, and arranging the panels to get it to flow just right!
@IndigoShirtProd aw thanks!
I totally agree, great action paneling! It was much easier to plan such panels in scroll format, even after all these years I am still intimidated by pages layout
I kinda had a meltdown today feeling like a fraud, I actually hoped that I had my rest and the drawing will go smooth from now on, but nope. Anyway I hope I will be over it tomorrow, but probably I will just do an illustration, we'll see.
Day 8! Didn't get much lineart done again today. If I work on it more later, then I will share a pic.
@simonitropunk Welcome! Love that panel shape/composition/camera angle!
@IndigoShirtProd Welcome and thank you! This looks very dynamic, great job!
