Hey! Bearman, of beartoons.com, is featuring a series of portraits by webcomic artists. The theme: What our characters will look like at 100 years of age.
Go there to see my contribution, would ya? And check out the other artist contributions while you’re there, and peruse Bearman’s single-panel politically themed strips- there are strips a-plenty.
See why I need to document the first sketches of characters I use? Below is how they turn out, torn and under a stack of things. Here is the first sketch as I brainstormed the introduction to Fearville, in this strip. As a reader commented, he may have a slight resemblance to Calvin, of Calvin & Hobbes, but I think that was accidental. Calvin & Hobbes is pretty much the reason I’m a comic strip artist, so I wouldn’t be surprised (nor ashamed) if little tidbits from it slip into my comic for many years to come.
Hey! More site adjustments are coming in the near future, including the nifty “hovering Edmund” image on most comics (I’m working on adjusting the placement). Frumph has been very generous with his time and Comicpress expertise! Feel free to contact me with any suggestions or complaints as the modifications continue!
So, what are your goals? I have some. Here’s one. As long as you’re checking that out, why not check the archive of Thoughts? If you haven’t taken a look yet, it’s a running collection of musings by me- a little insight into my brain.
Figuratively, of course…
