A single-panel color comic labeled “MADSCOTT.” A medieval guard wearing a helmet, chainmail, and a purple tunic stands on a stone wall, holding a spear upright in one hand and a shield in the other. He looks off to the side with a wary expression. Two speech bubbles read: “I’m not saying you can’t park there,” and below it, “I’m saying that we dump boiling oil right there.” The background shows a clear blue sky above castle battlements.

Oil

I'm still getting used to my Kamvas pen screen but this should help improve my process. The pen screen and clip studio combo feels more like drawing than what I was doing before. My Lenova tablet is great but this is a bigger toolset and might inspire me to get clip studio for android.

While you’re waiting

I’m in something of a frantic prep-mode for Fall Comicon. I have comics to scan and post but I have put that on hold so I can get some neat stuff done for the show. I’m going a slightly different direction from previous shows. I’ve scrapped some of the fan art I had (outside of sketch cards) and am putting out more of my art. As such this years book marks look more like this. fallcon_bookmarks

Voice of Reason

For future reference, it’s not impossible that I may be the voice of reason, but if you ask me for ideas on what’s reasonable I will almost always suggest some combination of the following.
  1. Get pizza instead.
  2. Maybe limit the number of fingers you might lose to one.
  3. If the fire only takes off hair then it’s not a big enough fire.
  4. You are only going too fast if you also need to turn. If no turning is needed keep going forward.
  5. An angry bear is only dangerous to people to proud to trip a friend
  6. You can put your boots in the oven but that don’t make ’em biscuits
  7. If you can’t solve a problem with a hammer you clearly need a bigger hammer

Aug. Addition of the state of things

It’s been too long and the pile of comics I need to scan keeps growing. I’ve been posting some photos of them over on the facebook page and on instagram but I want to get clean versions posted here. I am also in the process of signing up for a few shows and will put up a list once I get a confirmation. I believe I will be doing a couple of traditional craft shows as well as a couple comic shows. ** I’ll post again soon

New things

I stumbled into some cool little bags and decided to try them out as dice bags. If you see me at MSPComicon you have a shot of buying one. dice_bag
