July COMICS CHALLENGE - Get Stuff Done!

[ricardoaltuna]

Looks awesome so far!

[ricardoaltuna]

Worked for half an hour on sunday and an hour today

I got started in trying to create a sense of movement in the middle "panel". It's pretty important to the scene, but I really like the comic book look and trying to present movement through lines or blur feels almost like a capital sin. I tried to reach a middle ground and will keep working on it tomorrow. Hopefully get the whole page done, too, but that's it for today

@BarBarKetrab @ricardoaltuna Thank you!

@KiabIce I love how you do daily hand practice. So dedicated.

@Scarlet_Cryptid Nice job! Sounds like you've been getting a lot done.

[KiabIce]

I was silently dying as I was doing the hand practice hahaah. Oh boy. The gesture practice was interesting to do which this whole week I plan to do every day as well.

Did this doodle too a character from my comic

[jeffanime1]

Ok, sounds fun! I'll give it a shot.

Welcome to the club!

It's Day 13 of the July Comics Challenge! Interesting quote below that I found for today. With all my studying landscape painting lately, I now constantly notice all the beauty outside my window and am thankful to God for this beautiful world He designed.

Today I'm working on updating my website. Finished up a new article to gather all my scrapped concept art from my comic: Scrapped Concept Art – Unused Designs from the Comic, “Kindred Not”

[Kelheor]

@gabriellabalagna this landscape is absolutely great! Will try to follow your tips, I am trembling when I am doing backgrounds every time

I am actually trying to enter a contest, so I am putting all the little energy I have in this heat to finishing the picture. Barely finished lining one page of s2. More of my glorious thumbnails and a sneak peek of the contest art

[JeanGuillet]

your sneak peek colors are so gorgeous! Amazing warm and sunny, just gorgeous. I vote for you to win the contest.

I still have the text to do on this weeks comic, but it's falling into place, then I've got to figure out a California location to paint for tomorrow. And then I have to agonize about having to censor on (tapas competitor) and how and what I'm going to do about all the bbq sauce that got spilled on the cobblestones...oh yeah, i forgot to put that in this pic yet. iterating again and again to remember what i've forgotten so the continuity monsters don't eat me.

[Kelheor]

Thank you so much, Jean! Hopefully the full picture will live up to expectations ️ may I wake up one day after drawing something as gorgeous as your landscapes!

Whose effects are absolutely mind-blowing 🤯

[BarBarKetrab]

I had a lot of fun drawing grass today. I tried to make the picture more clean while at the same time keeping a hazy, slightly dreamy (is that the right word?) vibe.

[FafasMcMelt]

Cheching in to say I've finished today's page and even posted it. Not much in terms of update from the last one, but it since I've posted a billion WIPs, might as well show the finished stuff.

Finished page

That's it for today. Gonna start sketching the next one soon.

[renaissancebadger]

I was feeling pretty bad that I hadn't really participated in this much which had the wonderful effect of guilting me into working on my comic, so I count that as a win. This is one of the last panels in this part! Almost done!!

DO NOT THE FISH. ANGORY.

[Scarlet_Cryptid]

Ugh. Rough day, rough page to be drawing on a rough day. >_< Got the panels laid out, got the dialogue balloons in place, scanned the previous page. That's going to have to be good enough today.

I hope tomorrow is better.

[renaissancebadger]

You’ve got this!!! I believe in you!!!!

[gabriellabalagna]

@Kelheor Thank you!!! Okay your thumbnails definitely are glorious. And that sneak peek even more so. Like Jean said, if there's voting, let us know how to vote for you in the contest.

@JeanGuillet This looks incredible!

@BarBarKetrab Yes, I'm liking the haziness. So pretty!

@renaissancebadger Glad the challenge helped provide a little motivation. Loving the character's body language and expression in this panel.

[ricardoaltuna]

Today I work an hour and 25 mins. Finished this group of panels:

And then I was gonna start new ones, but my mechanical pencil ran out of leads:

So I just started inking the panels the panels that where ready for that:

[Legendofgenii]

Look at that background! Oh my goodness!

And you know I’m melting because of the teeny bubbah
