Comic Page Process

I have a pretty...unprofessional way of creating comic pages. I usually, at best, have a general idea of what I want to go on in a page. And then I go straight to thumbnails, and write the script as I am drawing the panels. Sometimes I even draw the panels and people's expressions, and then write the script, after I've figured everything else out. Also sometimes I have a really strong mental image of what will be in a certain panel, so I leave it blank in the thumbnail.

These first three pictures are thumbnails for The Lone Sentinel I did while in a very boring class last semester. I started conceptualizing and drawing the comic in the spring, which is part of why I was able to get a large buffer and also why I don't think I'll be able to do a second chapter next year. I need a break. o_o

             

These next two pages I drew this semester while in a very, very boring chemistry class. Part of the problem with just drawing everything at once without planning it out is that I have to redraw panels a lot, or draw the page out again with things rearranged and just symbolize with a number which panel goes where. With the fight between Drake and the vampire, I had absolutely no idea whatsoever what I wanted to do, so I completely gave up on drawing pages and just drew scenes, and then figured out what went where later. 

  

And I do this for every single page I draw. Hopefully this gives you a better idea of how exhausting it is to draw an entire chapter, and why I like to give myself breaks. Long, long breaks.

I needed to draw Jade in a sweater with a t-rex on it. For reasons.

A Person

Whenever I feel like drawing but don't know what to draw, or am bored with what I've been working on and want to do something different, I just paint one of my OCs. Most of them turn out eh because it's really just something to pass the time, but this one was ok. 

I should really give her a name. Just like all my other OCs.

Faces

Stress relief doodles~

WIP - Queenie and Myra

Obviously they're great friends can't you tell :V

I have a day to finish this ahhhhh why did I take a 3 week break

why

New Cover

My sleep schedule got so screwed up because of this stupid picture. But I'm really happy with how it turned out. *_*

WIP

Finally working on something other than a comic page~

Also my tablet cord has become so messed up that if I move it the wrong way it disconnects itself. :[

Chibi Myra

I've been wanting to make chibis of everyone since I drew the bonus page.

Beep Boop

Been devoting all my drawing time to making comic pages for the past couple weeks. I was trying to get enough of a queue up to start uploading two pages a week again, and I think I finally did it! So expect a new page Sunday. :D

This comic has gone on so soooo much longer that it was ever supposed to I'm so glad it's near the end 

Spell Speak

The translation for the spell language I made a font for. I actually had totally forgotten I made individual characters for Th Ch and Sh, and that I excluded C, until I was typing this up. >_>;

WIP

~Disguises~ :o 

Who could they be??

I was going to post a wip of this but then I completely forgot. :o

My two fashionable OCs would get along well. Myra would probably get along with anyone to be honest.

 

Finished

WIP of a thing. I want grapes now. D:

Took two days. I forgot how much fun and relaxing watercolors were. I should do them more often. I don't get inspiration for them often though. :[

I'm gonna count this as my October 8th inktober, even though there is no ink used. Unless you count the watercolor I guess? I need to finish this soon so it was all I worked on today.

There's no way I'm going to actually scan everything I do for Inktober. I think I'm just gonna upload them 2-4 at a time.

I saw someone wearing a cool dress yesterday and I thought Myra would look cute in it.
