I'm a 20-something artist from the west coast of Canada. Art has always been my passion, and something that I've always done in hopes to bring joy to myself and others.
I love witchy aesthetics and gothic horror!

Hey everyone! Here's my comic, The Lady and Her Hound! While none of the current pages have any mature content warnings, there will be some in future pages. That being said, I have tried to keep things relatively PG-13! Genre Horror/Dark Fantasy Mature Warnings Blood, gore, Hound (the main dog c…
Oh boooy, this one has been me for sure lately. Honestly for me, I just remind myself that I'm making my comic for myself first. That I'm making a comic because it's a story I want to tell and that I'm passionate about. I get these feels a lot because I get really anxious about like "what if I hav…
Hey everyone! Episode 10 of The Lady and Her Hound just dropped this Thursday!
Oh gosh, it was probably InuYasha? After that it was Fullmetal Alchemist and Naruto. I wrote some pretty cringe-worthy fanfics at the age of 12. But you know what, it's all good because I was having a great time. Honorable mention is Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles. This was less of an online fa…
Here's The Lady and Her Hound! [image] And my review of your cover! Will I click on it I clicked because I love chickens, and like a dream of mine is to actually have backyard chickens **What's my opinion** I think the art style is cute and simple. I definitely get the sense that this …
Awww! I'm glad you're feeling a bit better! For Lady and Hound, I guess people would probably notice how tall Lady is? And also her white hair. Lady is definitely always ready to get out of dodge. I mean the world she lives in is overrun with demons, unless she's in a fortified city she's always…
I ask thee, does dost thou take enjoyment from worlds suffering under the treacherous tyranny of demons and other foul beasts? HARK! By pressing thine mouse over magical text of blue, thou wilt be transported to such a tale. Dost thou take enjoyment from canine companions! HARK! Press thine mouse ov…
You didn't trigger anyone. We have all been trying to explain why a big studio should pay people with money and not exposure, back rubs, dogs, potato chips, etc, and why doing otherwise is kind of unethical. As I said earlier, they make millions and millions of dollars. You're also reaching a lot.…
I'm sorry to come down on this here, but this thread keeps popping up as like one of the first threads I see in the Tapas forums. And seeing "give a big firm a second look for exposure" is just making me lose my mind. I am sorry if everything I say comes across as harsh, but like I get the feeling t…
I think these are really good points too! Pricing art is hard at the end of the day >.> I tend to skew towards the "charge a min/living wage" because art is something I do work on professionally. Even if my art hustle is only part-time right now and the other half is working as an art teacher. It'…
I totally understand I mean I've been here a few years ago when my art wasn't as polished. It does suck when you don't get any work in, but like it just means you have to keep drawing and improving your skills. It was a really hard pill for me swallow, realizing that my art wasn't 'there' yet, but …
Yeah!!! That's awesome!!! The only thing I would be concerned about is how long the image is depending on where you're advertising. If you're on Instagram mainly, I would recommend using a more square format, or look up the sizes that Twitter and Instagram display images without cropping them. O…
I have a very similar process to @renaissancebadger where I send things in for feedback from the client at multiple stages. So I do a rough concept sketch, I do the real sketch > send to client and ask for feedback, do the the line art > send to client ask for feedback. I also stress to them that …
I have a few comics! The first comic I want to recommend is Them by @Legendarylankman13 ! It's not medieval, but it is a supernatural horror. If you like Silent Hill and creepy old towns, I really can't recommend them enough. This one was spotlighted on the Tapas front page for a bit, but it…
Yeah exactly!! I didn't include my actual commission page/post because I didn't want it to seem like I was highlighting my own work, but along with the prices I do include images! Here's a link to my commission post on Instagram, just so you can get an idea? https://www.instagram.com/p/CJXcnLd…
I think your art is good enough for commissions! I think what you want to think about is how much time does it take you to make a piece. Then you should calculate a livable and fair wage based off of your skill set. Don't charge less than minimum wage! The things is with art commissions, it's bett…
Not an INTJ but and INFJ! I can't remember what letter came after like for the hyphen part because it's been a while. But I remember reading that apparently MLK was also an INFJ?
Just here to chime in with what others have said that a lot of comic artists do use 3d assets to make their backgrounds! If you want to try modelling things from scratch you can also use Blender! It's like Maya but it's free! I know some use it, and then will just trace over their rough 3d models af…
I'll drop mine here! If you're interested in gothic horror and Bloodborne, The Lady and Her Hound might be up your alley? Lady is a strong but quiet. She's a monster hunter/demon slayer and journeys around the ravaged countryside with her faithful companion Hound! [image]
Oh booooooy. I feel like stories I will never write probably would be autobio comics? I've thought about it because I've had a little bit of a crazy life and I think it might be a fun read, but it would just be too close to home I think? I guess another story that I really want to create but I'…
Ah!! Congrats on realizing a childhood dream! Love the work so far and I defs gave a sub! Keep up the great work!
Just finished the line work of a new character design I'm working on. Starting to do the back view now [image] His name is Ellis, and he's a part of the Order of the White Roses.
Hey I read you comic and it was really lovely! I think you and Ai Ponyta make a great team with your writing and art! I commented more in-depth on the last episode about how I felt about the comic, but seriously great work to the both of you! I'm not sure if it would be up your alley, but my com…
For The Lady and Her Hound I would say my top three influences were: 1) Bloodborne I just love the victorian gothic setting and fashion! Plus monsters and eldritch horrors?? Y E S. I also love how the story was told through the worldbuilding and how you had to piece together what happened in the p…
I just subbed!!! I absolutely love your art style and Lilah is so cute
I'm working on scripting chapter two of my comic, and also working on some character designs? This is a WIP of a naive soldier named Ellis. (click on picture for full body view) [image]
I have a buffer! I totally understand being excited to post, but I really don't think I'd be able to keep up with my posting schedule if I didn't. My buffer will take me through to November because I post once a week, and I'm just thankful for it because it gives me time to write and script the next…
Ooo I checked yours out and I'm interested with the world building! I really want to know more about the gems and what different colours mean. Also I love the design of the mysterious figure with the cracked gem! I just started publishing about a month ago now! The Lady and Her Hound is my first c…
Oh my gosh that's awesome though!! Making games still takes a lot of work! I'm glad you're happy with the rewrite and turning it into a comic. Lady and Her Hound really just came about because I really wanted to create something that had the feel of Bloodborne but had a bit more of an overt story.…
Hello there!! My comic is just getting started (only 7 pages published currently), but I guess as the story progresses I would say Lady's flaw is that she doesn't really open up to people. She also is very focused on her goal of finding the source of what caused the demon plague in her world, which …
