Taught things for a few years, wrote a few things, teaching drawing, painting & other things. Also being taught how to paint things. I like things.

Fascinating look at an almost bygone process. John Buscema and Tom Palmer, both masters at the top of their games, but here's a granular view of the places Tom both improves and falls short over John's (loose by today's insane standards) pencils.

When I’m in my hometown, I try to hit up the local comic shop, which shares space with a used games shop and coffee shop. I want the shops to remain open so I try to pick up something every visit. Scored an Unmatched game I’d been waffling on for a reasonable price.

I get it - eyeballs and time spent on a website/article but can writers please just use the inverted pyramid when reporting. I’ve ignored more news sites and “news sites” due to their penchant for burying their ledes than a care to think about.

You might want to further back to where the Moodys transitioned from blues-oriented to progrock layered sound. Knowing what it is now makes it palatable but during that time it was a bit wtf. Also Genesis from the time just before Gabriel left had some that might fit the bill.

It's fairly insane that MOST political journalists exhibit no understanding that being President and running for President are not the same thing, and often a President who is effective at making policy may not titillate their beltway gossip machine, which reflects on THEIR competence, not his.

Morning warm-up sketch: BATMAN v SUPERMAN! I’m not sure they’re really fighting here; just trying to have this angle and effect where Superman was sort of appearing like a apparition.

I’ve spent 2 days blocking in / painting fluted Greek columns. I understand why so many of the masters went with smooth columns. Perspective and proportions are brutal. BTW - they look better but not there yet. And they’re not the focal but a framing device. #thedarksideofmakingart

In the same vein - watched an episode of Bob Newhart show where Henry Winkler played a felon. Kinda threw me for a loop.

In the studio picture you have a color chart that looks personalized. Do you create one for each project or is it a master you use on all/many? Thx.

I feel you. We did the same on our south side and the change was immediate. The best part - the thermostat for the house was in the sunlight upstairs. The basement was cold in the summer and frigid in winter. Zone heating was the next investment.

And an hour and a half later. Not completely happy. Still some “here and there work” but fighting the urge to dive in and tighten it way up. I have other projects where I have to do that.

If you happen to find yourself in Dublin, swing by and check out Little Deer Comics! Every comic somebody buys helps keep the lights on and the doors open. (If you should find yourself in Harrogate then the same applies to us...)

Good! Miles Astray entered a real, albeit surreal photo of a flamingo into the AI category of the 1839 Color Photography Awards [...] “I wanted to show that nature can still beat the machine and that there is still merit in real work from real creatives,” Astray tells PetaPixel over email.

So, this is going back to an earlier period than you might intend, but there's a good argument that the Tavern of Salvius in Pompeii has multiple sequential images with word bubbles featuring the same characters, & it's hard to see how that's _not_ a comic strip: www.aup-online.com/deliver/full...
