First ginger, now apple seed... Why do they grow in my home?

[Kelheor]

Spring~ or maybe they like you. Maybe you suddenly grew yourself a green thumb

Got up at 9 am this morning and decided to be productive. I finished drawing one page of my comic. I've never felt better!

[Kelheor]

Wow, great job!

[Panqiuyan]

ready for break from school

[LJ2]

Ha, I've tried to be productive today also in writing, and starting out with drawing. turns out that 'productive' for me is surfing the web for three hours

[unknown_user]

Hmmm...

Could THIS make it green after 1000th using?

[Kelheor]

Seems legit

So I 100% decided I'm starting that second comic on August 1st. I wonder how will I manage two series at once. You never know until you try. xD

[nathanKmcwilliams]

@Kann Buffer buffer buffer xD did I mention buffer? Take it from someone who tried to juggle two series and a one-shot and failed.

Me was doing dynamic tenzion in college and me graduated in 2007. Got weird looks at the weights room.

In the English-speaking world it was popularized by this guy:

Charles Atlas

That's what I'm doing right now. Whenever I have time I'm working on having first chapter (35 pages) all ready for publishing, so I'll start with a big buffer.

I'm in the same boat...though the upside for me is that I've been paying off a lot of debt, so I'm a couple of payments from being debt free. Def trying to get a new(ish) car, coz my current one has been breaking down on me for the last 3 yrs in a row...also I get to keep a little more money in my pockets now; really sucked when there were things I wanted but I didnt have the money to get them.

Working through the COVID craze has been keeping me on schedule to pay off this debt & get closer to my new car. I would've hated to have my plans set back...

[Kelheor]

Ugh, good luck to you!
I thought of starting doing that second comic (at least in sketch) in March, but ended up adding more panels to the first season and then the content came xD sooo maybe June?

[LCT_m_a_d]

I hate when you come across awesome art on instagram only to find "art not mine". lol
I guess I shouldn't focus on the artist and instead appreciate the drawing.

[unknown_user]

What's wrong with it? Maybe a person want to support another artist with giving them shootout. Or maybe that artist drew their pic especially for this person, so a person want to share such cool thing. There are a lot of reasons why people do it. Not only to draw attention to themselves with other's art.

[Kelheor]

Not sure what LCT_mad is talking about, but there are lots of Instagram accounts that just post another people's art without any credit and definitely not made for them. Just like one usually have art folder on PC, they just post it on Insta... for some reason.

[LCT_m_a_d]

I didn't mean anything was wrong with it, I just like like to follow the original artist. Kinda like when you hear someone play a song you like but don't know the artist.

[DiegoPalacios]

Charles Atlas sounds like a really badass name.....

[nathanKmcwilliams]

I'm not sure if I like using a Multiply layer for shading.
Even though the old way of using 2-3 different values of each color to shade takes way longer, I like the way it looks just a little more.
