i know the feeling. It was crazy when I was in Art School. I really like your style and I am looking forward to seeing more of your great illustrations.
ahhh...i remmber those days. i never got a single non-art project finished during my BFA days. great take on the topic and winter break isn't too far away. ;)
Nah, you're standing on the bottom really and there doesn't appear to be any sign that the water levels rising - so a bit waterlogged maybe, but not broken!
Nice linework - I particularly like the built up lines for textures in the hair and clothes and the writing itself as a texture.
Lately, I've been experimenting with making comics quickly to share on Instagram. And when I find myself doing something on repeat, I like having ready-made templates to remove some of the friction of getting started when you have all the right layers and guides already set up.
Ever since I picked up the iPad app Procreate, I have discovered a new joy in making comic pages. It was tricky at first, however I have now drawn over 100 pages of comics and settled on a good layout system.
I've been using the handy 'Page assist' feature in Procreate for making comics. A cool aspect of this is that you can use the first layer as a 'background layer'. This background layer persists through all layers, making it perfect for guides or for when you export the final artwork.
Last year I started experimenting with making ePubs in Pages. I had previously dabbled in hand coding epubs in 2015 using open source software like Calibre and Sigil. Sometime in 2018 Apple announced that their software Apple Pages can now export not only in epub, but to fixed layout epub. Perfect for comics.
Wordle still continues to be a daily dose of normal in a weird time. I don't try to play competitively with Wordle, meaning I just do it for fun and not obsess about how many rows it takes. However, when I find myself on row 4 and I'm still not really getting anywhere I break out a sheet of paper r or post-it notes and quickly draw a series of 5 underlines.
Please don't splodge into a big pool of ooze! Break artisically, try throwing paint at a wall (or teacher) };-}
