Never offering advice or help to anyone on the internet again…sigh Also-apparently I have to quit comics now…so bye I guess
Marco Finnegan@marcofinnegan.bsky.social · 2d agoSomeone just said that if you can’t draw 2 pages a day on a regular basis you could never be a comic book artist and he wouldn’t hire you. Worst take. I have never heard of anyone demanding 2 pages a day. Most people I know are 1 page a day (max) 4 pages a week on average
As someone who tries to offer a hand back for every step forward I get to take-I need to learn that social media is not the place to offer advice to folks who have bad takes. Sigh

Marco Finnegan@marcofinnegan.bsky.social · 2w agoTheir big selling point is that this program will take a writers script (gotta protect that lol) and the AI will do the layouts (because all cartoonists know how easy and unimportant to the process that is) and then (to save time and $) the artist gets the layouts to finish Kill me.

Publishers Weekly@publisherswkly.bsky.social · 2w agoThe Singapore-based startup says its AI-powered platform can halve graphic novel production time and cost. “This is not a self-driving car,” notes CEO Anumeha Bisaria. “It’s more like handing a Ferrari to someone who already knows how to drive.” buff.ly/YOXZgZY
Watching GARDEN OF EVIL and my goodness every shot is perfect
For those of you who fund single issues yourself-what’s the cost per 20 page issue? Including paying creative team and printing costs 15-20k?
Hey @drawmanley.bsky.social am I hallucinating or was there an issue of DRAW! Where Rivoche broke down how he attacked a Tom Strong short he drew? The one where the construction worker jumps off building? It had his ref and everything in it
The paid gig/secret project is forcing me to do a lot of melodrama and subtler pacing
Who are some of the best classic western (cowboys) illustrators? Looked at sickles Wyeth, toth remington, Who am I missing?
