this was all decent until the 47 second mark removed all the goodwill it had with that painful lampshading that goes on for way too long

writers, please have more confidence in having silly characters be silly instead of awkward MCU "well that was awkward" humor 🫠

✏️ When drawing complex subjects:

1. Find the big shapes first. This is your structure.
2. Break down into more specific shapes within the big shape.
3. Break down those shapes into details.
4. Refine.

Don’t get overwhelmed by complexity.

@AmongUsGame when you're game makes news for the first time for the wrong reason

I kid you not, @itchio has been taken down by @OriginalFunko because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called @BrandShieldltd that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, @iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

絵のスキルアップを「①演繹法」と「②帰納法」に当てはめて考えてみた。

①絵のコツ(TIPS)は即効性があって役に立つ。これは共有知になった法則の積み上げによる「演繹法」的な描画スキル。知っているだけで手早く絵が上手くなる気がする。

②複数の修作、参考資料や例をもとに、形や見え方のパターンを見出して自分の絵に落とし込むのが「帰納法」的な描画スキル。時間はかかるが自力が付いて個性もでる。

描画スキルアップには①と②の両方が大切ですが、可能なら「たくさん描く&観る」＝②先行が良いと思う。

理由は、①が先行すると頭でっかちで手を動かさない状態に陥りやすい事と、②を続けないとツールや線質など周辺スキルが上がらない事、など。

結論、「いいから黙って沢山描く！疑問に思ったら調べる！」が効果が高い練習方法だと考えています。

Dear Content Creators!

I often see and hear people frustrated with their lack of growth, and wondering whether it's even worth it for them to continue trying.

I want to say a few words to those of you who feel lost, like your dream is dying.

These days, WEBTOON is so big that people have all but forgotten what it was like before it. Barely anybody was making anime styled webcomics at all. The gamer webcomics of the late 00's/early 2010's had all but died, and stores stopped selling manga in Europe.

When I told people I wanted to be a successful webcomic writer, they laughed at me. I came across like a delusional child. (Which I definitely was.)

It took years and years of spending all the money I could scrounge up, to commission just a few comic strips and oneshots every few months. And it amounted to just a few hundred followers. And that was a huge accomplishment, too, in the webcomics scene at the time!

It took even longer for me to start earning actual money, and even longer for me to earn enough to turn it into a studio.

I was a stupidly persistent but passionate child when I started, and I am now a stupidly persistent but passionate adult, and the one thing I've learnt from it all, is that if you put your whole heart into doing something you love doing, even if others don't believe you can do it, eventually, it just might work.

If you love doing what you do, stay the course!

Don't give up!

(But probably get a side job. I was a phone salesman for a while, and because of it, I could spend even more money making comics!)
