Thanks Zeggy! And I agree! Though getting any groceries might also be tricky. But I say worth it.

Hey Shirley! Thanks for checking it out! (and my studio rarely looks that clean -_-) I actually only use Clip Studio to do my flat colours for the graphic novels. Otherwise everything else is done in Photoshop (incl. Picture Books), which I'm too rooted into to fully jump to another app.

If any of you folks are interesting in seeing how I make my graphic novels, I put together this video a little while back! vimeo.com/872442189
It was originally made for an event, but I have since forgotten what one! π€ͺ It was fun to put together tho, and includes a top notch cameo of Charlie πΆ

Ahhh I actually was working on doing a point and click game test with Simon and Chester! I was doing it all in pixel art, and sadly just lost time and it left to gather dust.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!
It's so nice seeing the community and tips that are being shared here (looking at you @charlenedraws.bsky.social and @debbieohi.com)
I'm heavy feeling the social media fatigue from being on all the other spots, but looking forward to more time on here.

Haha thanks Steve! Not so much the trudging through miles of snow with no shoes. Though it was a minefield of avoiding stepping in the many presents left by our dogs.

Back in the day I had to trek up through our backyard forest, and climb this rock/fence everyday to reach the bus stop for school.
