Genuine #comicart #question I have, since I'm a complete #beginner with making #comics and only just know practicing my #art for my comics, HOW DO YOU STAY ON MODEL???
Is it that you all practiced drawing your characters til it just became muscle memory, or are you using shortcuts, or is there a rodent under your hat controlling you and doing all the work?

If you knew that another artist was quoting less than you for the same job, would you reduce your fee?

Does anyone know a good, affordable alternative to Prismacolor? I love their markers, but they're discontinuing the sales of individual markers to push the sales of sets, and even particular sets seem out of stock or hard to find (just when I needed more French Greys too...)

Open to suggestions! #TraditionalArtist #Art #ArtQuestion #Prismacolor

Trying to find a good drawing setup with a Surface Pro 7. Been learning Krita, but I am struggling as I don't have a keyboard attach for hot keys. Need to practice consistently before looking at a drawing tablet for my main PC. Any tips or tricks for a new aspiring artist? #artquestion #krita #arttips

A really lovely article about Swedish Kurbits!

This is like classic stuff in the region I'm from (Dalecarlia/Dalarna)

It makes me feel at home, and now I want to practice making it and am wondering what type of paint would be best? 🤔
Recommendations are welcome from people who are familiar with different types of mediums with art. (sorry I can't even ask the question right because brain fog atm)
For some reason my brain is thinking that oil or acrylic for addef texture? Wdyt?

Hey #MastoArt what do we think? I'm torn between adding gold paint lights on the land-like areas and reflecting in the water, vs keeping it fully abstract?

Thinking of possibly making a comic as a way of practicing drawing and writing. The only problem is I have no idea what I would make the comic about. I want to stick with shorter stories at first, then maybe do something longer form if I figure out short stories. Is there something like a game jam, but for comics? Some direction would be helpful for me #comics #art #ArtQuestion #ComicQuestion

I have an #Inkscape question.
Is there a function where you can make a "source" box or object, and then clone it? So all changes to the source box are echoed across the clones?

I'm making a planner page, and want the same content in each box. Figured there might be a way faster than duplicating and placing manually.

Thanks in advance!

1- Any recommendation on non-shellac India ink? Any alternatives you good peeps use that doesn’t look like a gray wash?

2- been buried in deadlines and to do lists ( I’m sure most of us are always in this spot lol ), but a good chunk of my time is spent taping ready-made art boards for spreads and making my own dimension lines… any pre ruled good art boards you use that is 17x22, or at least the twice up size from before?

Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend!

So for comic artists i had a question occur to me. When you are doing a multi cell panel, particularly complex graphic novel and comic book stuff, do you make each cell individually or 1 large canvas?

#artQuestion I want to improve my background drawing skills.
For someone who has avoided backgrounds for a long time, and feels overwhelmed whenever I do a landscape study, is there a way to not feel overwhelmed by backgrounds? Does someone have a tip on how to break it down and not let it feel flat in the end?
