[Kim in the snow]

amazing, how did you get the lighting to look the way it did?

fliphrrr responds:

I always decide on the background first to quickly set up the piece's mood.

I knew beforehand I wanted a piece with a lot of contrast (other times, I just wanted harmony in the work), so I purposefully selected cold colors that were analogous between them (the blues) and put them versus a highly saturated warm color (the pink hue in the light).

For the shading itself, I make a shape with the Lasoo tool and then apply a gradient with a soft brush (like working with an airbrush) for the shading to fade in, and that technique stacks each other with each layer of render I make.

The heavy lift of all this is undoubtedly the black spots; chiaroscuro is the technique in which you use strong contrasts of light and dark. It's the standard in comic art because it lets you describe a lot of volume in just the inking.

I hope that helps!

[Pizza Cat]

would eating the pizza inside the cat be eating it's organs? or is the pizza it's way of attracting prey like a venus flytrap?

NeonShambles responds:

I like the venus fly trap concept not a bad idea

they have cats.

Dezmine64 responds:

yes normal animals live in this world

[Puffer and Clarissa pg.9]

just found the comic, loving the large proportions of the gun, do you have any tips for making comics, specifically enduring it?

J-Nelson responds:

My advice is to write your comic script entirely and thumbnail all the pages before starting. It's a lot of work, but save loads of time so you're not agonizing over how each page should look when you get to them.

[Akira]

reminds me of the incredibles for some reason, or some old 2000's show, very good, love the texturing, making it seem worn and old.

PartimePunk responds:

Thank you! I’ve been looking at a lot of Art Deco and samurai jack stuff.

Hey, this is great, you got any tips for making low-poly psx style models?

PopStrikers responds:

I'm planning on doing a series on my YouTube channel in the next month or so all about low poly modeling. Quick tips though: Keep textures under 256x256, disable anti-aliasing, and reduce the amount of colors in a texture to simulate the PS1's limited color palette.

[Lion Girl]

angry cats.

ZingcoArt responds:
