Good Afternoon, Hope You’re All Having A Good Week Thus Far! Remember It’s Not Even Half Done So

Good afternoon, hope you’re all having a good week thus far! Remember it’s not even half done so don’t get down about things you haven’t completed yet (￣O￣;)

So - I’m changing my tools for inking (again lol)

I went back to inking on iPad the other night and was like “Wow the Cintiq sucks compared”. The iPad Pro feels so realistic and I can get those… raw ink marks I used to get on paper. The darks just seem… DARKER. I can’t do that in the Cintiq, and the screen just doesn’t feel right compared to the iPad. I absolutely dig the iPad’s intuitive approach and ability to really emulate the feel (not only look) of traditional tools. Though, I will forever miss the sound of a pen nib scraping the paper… But I don’t miss scanning multiple layers, straining over a light box, and whiting out without undo buttons entirely. I think once I’m healthier and have more money/assistants, I’ll be physically able to handle the labor of drawing comics analog.

So yeah - sorry to confuse those of you who asked about which tools I use recently, and whether I draw digitally or traditionally or whatever I do. It’s a healthy mix of both! Pencils are currently roughed in by hand and then scanned and modified on the computer/iPad then inked. I use a mixture of backgrounds from my head, from references I take, sometimes I splice in photographs and even lately I use CG and would like to start working with other artist friends who use CG so we can create vivid worlds based on concept sketches I’ll draw prior. Point is: my process is always changing; just do what you like and what makes you comfortable!

Doing a 40% off closeout sale for this sweater; shop-Jammo.com. It’s reduced to $40 from $65! It costs me $36 to make custom from scratch so I’m not making any money on this, really, but I need to keep inventory and releases flowing somehow to keep going 🌱I’m trying to get the money to do the next apparel release. Currently my only income is art, and my credit cards :) working on getting a part time again but it is hard. I need to just sell these in order to not collapse financially.

What’s available:

S= 5 M = 2 L = 4 XL = 2

This is the last run and there will not be any more because these are fucking expensive to make!! Thank you!!!

I like being able to make what I want. I like this ugly dying website. I like that the largest and most accessible archive of my work as an artist is a page of the internet so obscure it might as well be the palm of my hand.

This new orange Ikea cabinet I bought sure is good for photographing my art b/c complimentary color to my usual palettes 🎨😴Sleepy and want to sleep but in pain lol so maybe I’ll mail packages and draw sooner today. Or maybe my body can chill and let me get some sleep to wake up at 11:00 🙂 #catchmeyesterday#rock#art#drawing#mangaka#comics#manga#comic#music#album#albumart#漫画家#漫画 https://www.instagram.com/p/BrC_fKDgqPJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fu0qp4j8s0ro
