Well I sketched one strip I ended up not doing today, but I will have a sketch I won't need to do later x)
Was mostly lining Hexameron today and published today's strip a bit too late, but still!
Unfortunately, the comic doesn't do too well on my Insta, but I was also absent for a couple of months and never posted something like this, so it's okay, it's not like I expected good social media results from it (if I wanted that I would totally go for Fantober again xD).
I do enjoy checking up with you guys here, it's really encouraging!
Some today's Yara
I been watching this all month and like 1st of all Proud of Y'all for sticking to this and getting shiz done, even if it isn't as much as you want some days and even if you don't post every day, Y'all doing it and that's baller
So I been in this creative bubble lately and haven't even been sharing what I have been up to, but I wanna so I will.
I'm doing a collab with a friend about a merman and his fashion photographer boyfriend having a communication breakdown after she went hard on a prompt I laid out in book club. I fell in love with these two she described to me and had to draw their story out and then I was like, might as well try my hand at scroll format, so that's what I been up to this month.
I have what they look like
The sketchy sketches
Hey @Lady_T_Musings great to see you here!
Read your other thread and it's really awesome to see you being all out with new ideas! ^^
Today's update. Will try to do more tomorrow, hopefully will sketch a couple of strips. Oh, I need to think about the art for Sunday too!
@Kelheor Too bad it doesn't do as well as you like on social media. Maybe you could try a different platform or a video format? IDK.
@IndigoShirtProd Sending some positive energy your way, hope your weekend goes great and sketching uplifts your mood!
@Lady_T_Musings Very sweet of you! Yeah, I know what you mean about creative bubble, I get like that sometimes too.
@simonitropunk Okay, I love the person flipping in the bottom panel. Also, how all of these panels have a good sense of motion!
Glad to see more people joining and making progress on their works!
@Lady_T_Musings That collab looks exciting!
@simonitropunk Nice action scene! It looks very dynamic!
@gabriellabalagna A panel for the day is still progress! Taking time off to recharge is better; I learned that the hard way after I used to overexert myself a lot!
I meant to post this yesterday since time slipped by me!
Yesterday, I rendered the background of the doors to the auditorium opening for a panel that’ll show a group leaving when the show’s over!
This is for one of the last panels for the episode! Putting in the group will be tricky so I put several modeled people figures by the door in another render of this background to provide a reference for the perspective and scale. I blended that render and one for another background.
@gabriellabalagna nah, it's ok, I don't wanna sweat it for a daily fun project ^^
@SynergyEclipse oh, backgrounds are never easy great job!
Going strong, everyone
Today's strip, also did another sketch for a random strip and made a sketch for tomorrow's illustration so I can take it easy tomorrow.
@simonitropunk get it perspectiveeeeeeeee!!
@gabriellabalagna baby steps still steps, looking clean!!
@SynergyEclipse oh goodness render the f outta them chairs yoooo!!!
Needed another view of both boys, Dylan the merman and Jamal the Fashion photographer, but like im runing theough these panels. :3
@SynergyEclipse Thanks, yeah learned it the hard way before too. That render looks great!
@Lady_T_Musings Thank you!
Day 15. Ya'll are inspiring me with all the positive vibes lately!
Gonna try and go finish the lineart for this page. This poor baby Kenneth sketch here needs a lot of clean up. (Edit: Finished the lineart for this page, yay! )
He turned out pretty cute here. But somehow I feel bad for making him cry? 🤣
Not all progress was forward today
When I was finishing a group panel with the background that I showed the last time, I realized there are bloopers from an earlier episode!
The characters that’d be in this group shot in episode 30 were in episode 5. When I made episode 5, I updated the characters’ outfits a bit, but I just realized I forgot to make those updates to their outfits in episode 27! I went back to make the corrections to episode 27 so it'd be consistent.
Moving forward, I shaded two more panels for episode 30 and have only one left to go for it! I also expanded on the new parts of the script for episode 31 and sketched the first 2 new panels for it.
@SynergyEclipse Ugh, that's a bummer. Great job for getting it fixed right away though!
