I'm starting a weekly "snippet" staring my Rita & Josey called "Red Dirt Ruin", so enjoy the first 2 pages!

It'll be 20ish pages based on sketches released in the 2023 @cartoonistcoop.bsky.social bundle, and I'm excited to share a small taste of their series as I work towards my 2025 release goal!

Hi, I'm Jeff! I'm a webcomic creator, writer and illustrator based out of Edmonton, Alberta. When I'm not working on a comic, then I'm probably hanging out with my pets or painting armies of tiny plastic weirdos

Red Ilsa has a very important role in her arms dealing partnership with Rastovich - keeping him from getting killed.

It's a much harder job than she'd like it to be in La Cosa Glasnostra, now on #kickstarterreads

Some advice for folks getting into/ currently making webcomics: You don't have to draw a background for every panel! Sometimes it can be overwhelming and shadow the emotion you're trying to convey in your story. Make sure you have at least an establishing shot to ground the characters though!

a maybe less obvious one for comics is that if you're only doing the writing, try your hand at thumbnailing 10 pages or whatever. it's not about the quality of the art! it's about learning how to pace, how much text and activity you can fit in a panel. it's about getting a feel for it!

for comics: generally, characters can only take ONE action per panel. If your script has someone walk into a room, pick up a pencil and start writing in one panel, that's going to be impossible to draw* *some exceptions apply.
