Let's be Helpful and Share Some Resources and Wisdom

the Etherington Brothers have a fantastic series called How to Think When you Draw that they sell through Kickstarter. I have the book series and it's lovely. What's really cool is that they have a ton of their resources for free on their social media platforms.

Another cool resource I just recently got new light shed on was from the creator of the Webcomic LoveLove Fighting and it's Pinterest for advertising your comic. I have a Pinterest but never thought about the traffic it could generate as I just see it as an inspo board haha.

Check out her video on comic advertisement here S-Morishita Studio. She has lots of neat info as well for making webcomics in general too.

I´ll try to get it next time, the kickstarter only accepts credit card payment.
I love their art

[Lady_T_Musings]

Yes they are great for many things when it comes to art! Make sure to sign up to their Mailing list or follow them on Kickstarter for instant notifications when the KS goes live.

[Puck]

Yeah I did that, I will also figure something out for the credit card thing, I don´t have one myself and it´s not very common to have one in Germany

[Lady_T_Musings]

That's odd that they don't accept Paypal at least for you or bank card

I watch Film Courage videos from time to time, because i really like many of their chilled interview clips and their insights. Michael Gauer is my favorite.

I've learned a few tricks from them when structuring my story. I think their videos can help people with storywriting & story-structuring in some ways.

Oooh, I've never heard of them and this is some neat info. TY for sharing

[aleiahaith]

Honestly, they have more than three hundred free tutorials and they can be found all over the internet, which rocks! Speaking of rocks they have a tutorial on how to draw rocks! And if you can't find it specifically on their website you can just type "the Etherington Brothers _____ tutorial" on Pinterest/google images/etc and there's a 90% chance they made one for that subject.

True that they are very comprehensive haha!

Found this lately. It's a sim game tutorial, still it has some good tips about designing a medieval/fantasy village.

This guy has a great channel that dives into Clip Studio Paint features. The ones on using the 3D Models are particularly helpful, as some of the features can be a little difficult to work out.

Noiceeeeee, thanks for sharing Allen! The Sims were my original world building playgrounds so good to see lots of info still floating about on the game.

[Lady_T_Musings]

Thanks for sharing this! He has a good bit of videos that look pretty dang helpful for learning the intricacies of ClipStudio.

[nathanKmcwilliams]

Yeah no problem! CSP can be kind of tricky and daunting to learn at first so these videos are majorly helpful. I only found them after searching hard for info on 3D models.

woah woah! is that really free!! I love free tools,
I've been using sketch up, I really need an alternative thanks for this!!

[allenT]

A building survival game, Not 'The Sims' though.

[Lady_T_Musings]

Lol got you a sim not the Sims lol.

[allenT]

I found out a great YT channel. Although they're about films/movies but I can see a lot of their videos are very beneficial to us comic creators too!
Enjoy (the narrator has a nice 'pro' voice)

(also watch its entire playlist, even checkout their other videos)
