I'm a cartoonist, concept artist and character designer from the Betelgeuse star. My interests include mad science, cartoons, and arting all day long. No, seriously. ALL DAY LONG.

My current base of operations is my orbital death ray, where I'm currently preparing to vaporize all of Earth's major landmarks.

That's fantastic! I'm looking forward to making some money with this new feature. One more step closer to the ultimate goal: A career in comics! smiley

I try to update once a week, usually on Mondays. I know it's not as often as some other artists, but I'm very meticulous and I love filling my comic with a ton of detail, so it takes a lot longer to draw grin

Heya, Jingle! I'm diggin' your comic so far, the artwork is cool and Edin seems like an interesting guy. I've added it to my reading list. ^_^ Here's my comic, in case yer interested: http://tapastic.com/episode/32989

I've always loved drawing and telling stories, ever since I was little. So I eventually made the decision to make them into my own comics. I've currently got about 6 series planned (so far), and I'll be spending my life trying to make a career out of them ^_^ My first issue of my first series is Z…

This is my comic: http://tapastic.com/series/Zizzo-PI [image] And here's the theme song. I think it fits pretty well ^_^

I think it all depends. On one hand, if a character has a very specific type of voice (robotic, for example), it can work just fine. However, you should be careful about using it. Your audience should be able to tell which character is saying what by the way they speak coupled with good speech bubbl…

Awesome! I love Tezuka, one of the true greats of comics. Thanks you for sharing!

Thank you, I'm glad you like it! smiley

First of all, I enjoy your artwork very much. It's very simple, but very expressive. To answer your question, I think the new colors suit your work very nicely. The flat patterns of vibrant colors provide a nice contrast to the relatively simple line work. I've added your comic to my reading list. ^…

I find it helpful to think of a cover as a splash page. Think of it as a scene from the story, one that encapsulates the FEEL you're going for. Here's my cover, in case you're interested. ^_^ [image]

Will do sir! Thank you! ^_^

I'm currently focusing on releasing my comic via digital (which you can read here if you're interested) http://tapastic.com/series/Zizzo-PI but I am definitely interested in getting it published. I've made physical copies via a printing service to sell, in the meantime.

I've been updating my comic Zizzo P.I. http://tapastic.com/series/Zizzo-PI every day for a while, but from now on I'll be updating once a week. The reason is the first issue is already completely drawn; I've just been uploading the pages. There are only about 20 pages left and I don't want to run…

Hello! My current comic is Zizzo P.I. http://tapastic.com/series/Zizzo-PI Hope you enjoy it, I'll be updating every Monday.

Just checked out Zoie. I'm really loving the graphic style. Nice use of stark black and whites, and the character designs are very nice. Cool stuff! My comic is called Zizzo P.I.: http://tapastic.com/series/Zizzo-PI

Just checked out Hazy Daze. Love the vibrant colors, and the characters are very expressive! sunny My comic is Zizzo P.I. http://tapastic.com/series/Zizzo-PI

Well, here's the earliest comic I have featuring the villain of my series. The pain... [image] ...and here's one of the pages from the comic I've been uploading! [image] A little better, methinks wink

Detectives fight supervillains.

Personally, I prefer H lead, HB is a bit too soft for my taste.

I combine traditional and digital mediums. For my current comic, I pencilled everything with a non-photo blue pencil, then went over it with H graphite. Then I scanned it and cleaned-colored it in Photoshop. For my next issue, I'm switching to ink instead of pencil, it's much cleaner. I prefer Pelik…

Thanks, I appreciate that! ^_^

Welcome newcomer! I'm pretty new to this site myself, so I'm still trying to get more involved myself smiley My comic is Zizzo P.I. http://tapastic.com/episode/32989 . It's about detectives and mad science and an evil bunny.
