I'm glad I'm not alone! Mines a Memoir comic - I'm converting a journal of a road trip into a comic and making it comedy. It's a memoir, that's funny (I think so anyway), that's also Canadiana, its also family bonding, its also dinosaurs. I stuck it in slice of life but I'm not sure it fits there. …
Left! and I have an identical twin who is a "mirror twin" which means everything is opposite so she's right handed. Makes me think its genetic to be left handed. otherwise we'd both be right handed because we would have been taught/forced that way. I remember them trying to make me use my right han…
I am a purchasing assistant in the head office of a B.C. Chain of art stores. I went to school to be an animator but I got really tired of ever studio I worked at shutting down after each contract and chasing the next one I sort of settled for the 9-5 job. Conventions and doing tutorials for Copic…
I have a little sketchbook where I've done my layouts on post it notes or scraps of Vellum. I stick them in the sketchbook and write around them. Normally I use real layout paper and do it proper but for this comic the pages were a square format so the post it notes worked better. because I'm basin…
In 1997 my sister and I drew comics and printed them via photocopier and sold them in our high school. It was terrible and very heavily influenced by sailor moon. Then i did a 400 page dragonball fan comic that was also terrible! Haha. First officially published was in "ghost tales" in 2011 beca…
Im just jumping in here with my 2 cents because I have marker troubleshooting radar, haha. (I'm not intending to be prickly). I hesitate to recommend using bristol for colouring the markers are going to dry out faster and the paper is less responsive. it certainly works of course, but I use card spe…
Promarkers are OK. As long as its alcohol based it should work OK. One thing to keep in mind is when a marker dies and isn't refillable you replace it at full price. A copic marker is refillable. Each refill costs a dollar. You get around 8 to 12 refills in one bottle of ink. (ciao markers are…
We do 2 comics, both completely done traditionally. I'm definately going to be bookkeeping this thread to hunt in! My comic hello, albertosaurus is cute and cartoony coloured and drawn in pen and markers http://tapastic.com/series/Hello-Alberto My sisters comic daqueran, is epicly done all i…
If you're still upset and like dinosaurs or fantasy we have 2 comics Daqueran is a grumpy slave hero under the control of a unicorn tasked with killing the Dragon leader before they destroy their world. http://tapastic.com/series/Daqueran Hello, albertosaurus is a cute funny and silly memoir comic…
Not one to toot my own tutorial horn but I've done quite a few colouring tutorials for copic. Heres the link to my tag. Maybe someone will find them useful.

I get an error clicking your link so I'm going to manually look for it. In the mean time, I have my comic that is a weekly adventure memoir type comic about our trip to alberta seeking dinosaurs and my sister has an epic fantasy comic that is nearing completion so its a good long read. I'll just …
For my current comic, hello, albertosaurus I use a journal I wrote on our trip as the base, then I did layouts based on those. They're on post it notes in a sketchbook. My comic format is square so post-its were perfect. For my big fantasy project I have a pin board with a map drawn on it wher…
OuO
Well, I guess I'll post my little comic link.
Hello, Albertosaurus is a weekly comic that is an adventure of our life time where my dad took my sister and I to Drumheller Alberta for Dinosaur adventures. I Think its been pretty cute so far 
Thanks!
I tend to let the story or style dictate. I did a comic about Laika, the dog in space that I did in really simple black and white because the story was sort of sad, and I think colour would have been a distraction. For my Comic, Hello, Albertosaurus I wanted to show the colours of the places we w…
We do all our comics Traditionally with either a brush with ink or brush pens, or Copic Multiliners (Copic Markers or watercolour if we need colours). I can't bear sitting on a computer when I want to make the arts. UnU I get restless on a computer. I love the textures and smells of inks and paper…
