Be brave, and check out today's new BERRY BONES! ... guys, marketing is hard, okay??
A new BERRY BONES story begins today, in which Berry Scout Moss faces a crisis in confidence after being made to cross a gorge full of DEMONS! If you missed our last story, we're also launching the BERRY BONES: STORY UPDATE EDITION today, in which you can view full-stories all-at-once instead…

Launching today! [image]
Fun thread! Here's a joke about the scariest food of all! [image][image][image][image] (Impossible, Herbie! Who knows what's in those things!)
I recently started using a weekly planner (that I'm personally calling a TIME JOURNAL), and I've found it to be really helpful in navigating/organizing my day. I used Jake Parker's Planner and modified it for my own needs. Here's a link to his (much better!) planner: https://mrjakeparker.gumroad.com…

BERRY BONES follows five teenage monsters living in their small woodland village of Etflee. The comic-strip features short-stories delving into real teen trubs, like, "Did my crush just call me fat?!" and "How can we score cake from that mountain alien??" So far the gang has encountered everything …
I love these kind of threads! It's always so fascinating seeing other folks' work-stations. Here's a shot of my desk-space, though I might be moving soon: [image] I made a whole list over on my Ko-fi that breaks down everything I use, including travel kits and back-up tips! Too much for here, bu…
Man, that villain design could be something straight out of a Doctor Who novel (or early 70's sci-fi equivalent). Love it!
[image] I think Barney the Space Barnacle here is pretty fun. He's kinda the unofficial mascot for my series (BERRY BONES!). He'd make a great plush someday, at least. The Spider-Monkeys are good, too, though, haha.
Honestly, I think go with whatever one will stave off burn-out and keep you consistently updating. 20 panels in B&w sounds ideal if it's easily doable for you. People often forget that rest and relaxation is an integral part of the process - don't skimp on it! Personally, I also think if you hold …
I'm in the middle of a fight with a friend of almost 30 years. We had a bad day, but instead of talking it out he chose to blacklist me. So... we're in the "giving each other some space" phase? I'm going to send him a hand-written letter in a month both apologizing and calling him out on his own bs.…
Appreciate the thoughtful responses, all!! It's a very welcome change from the twits and such. I've tried to make the internal switch to "posting is about THEM", like entertainment is about ENTERTAINING, not the entertainer. I've never been great about consistency, but thinking this over I really …
I'll preface that I've never been good at social media. Particularly the "social" part, but even so, this is getting ridiculous. All the major platforms are like this, anymore. Like genuinely, what is even THE POINT?! (Keep in mind, that post got 6 views in TWO DAYS. It never used to be this bad; …
You don't want to leave people with a sense of confusion, but letting some things be open to interpretation is half the fun of creating stuff! Let people have their own takeaways from things. For example, I drew this strip a while back. Originally all 4 panels had the character's thoughts, but I i…
I think being mindful of your "camera" angles will be real important. If you want imposing, make sure we're looking up at him, or he down on us. It doesn't necessarily have to be crazy dynamic, but it should be present. The big floating head in The Wizard of Oz might be a good example. [image] A…
Hey, Tapas gang. We just wrapped another story (FLAMS BAM, MAN!), so now's a great chance to catch up before the next one starts. Teen monsters navigating their monstrous teen lives in a quickly digestible, short-story comic-strip format. [image] "There's nothing out there like this." ~ More tha…
Circles are swiping at squares in today's new BERRY BONES! If you like what you see, go follow the link and catch up on the story-so-far! (Lots of other stuff to read, too! Quickly digestible, bite-sized tales!) [image][image][image][image]
Some new - totally cute! - faces make their debut in today's BERRY BONES!
My short-story comic-strip BERRY BONES has been off-and-on hiatus as life demands, but we're currently updating! I think it hooks people who read it for a bit. It's hard getting eyes on stuff, these days. Or at least that's the excuse I'm going with, hah! :T [image]
[image] Come join us on Tapas!!: Berry Bones is NOT currently on Webtoon (I plan a future run there if it's still viable.), but we are on ComicFury atm, if you'd like that classic webcomics experience!: ... and we're on Tumblr, too, for some reason, haha:
Tensions are rising in today's new BERRY BONES! [image]
We're tellin' tales, today!
I've been doing little weekly watercolor illustrations based around my comic-strip BERRY BONES, and I thought this week's turned out alright considering I messed up 1,000x on it, haha. Started off as a Ramona Flowers homage, quickly turned into a Looney Tunes thing, which quickly kinda became its ow…
lol, yeah no worries. Nice chat. Like the thread suggests, we're just throwin' some love at B&W comics because for WHATEVER REASON some people get turned off by 'em. Which is weird. To me. And maybe some of the folks on this thread. But also sure, to each their own. [:smile_01:]
A new BERRY BONES story kicks off today with a simple question: [image]
