Inktober '16 comics week 4

The end of the month is approaching and we are in the Inktober home stretch! :-D I'm still doing Fortune Cookie comics, but the fortunes are getting more tricky to visualize (I used up all the easy ones already), so I definitely won't be coasting to the end this year!

Inktober '16 comics week 3

We've passed the halfway point for Inktober this week!! :-D Those of you who've been following my progress know that I happened upon a new idea; comics inspired by the fortunes in fortune cookies! I'm really loving Old Man Fortune Cookie and his sage wisdom! ^_^ Plus, using the fortunes as comic prompts takes the stress out of coming up with new ideas every day. Part of me does wonder if using a ballpoint pen is really in the spirit of Inktober, but that particular shade of blue matches the fortunes really well. I may try going back to the brush pen for a bit though, just to see what it would be like.

Not sure if I'll extend this idea through the end of the month, but for now, I plan to continue on with the fortune cookie comics. ^_^

Inktober '16 comics week 2

Inktober continues! Most days, I still struggle to come up with ideas, or to not wait till the last minute to get the comic finished. However, if I can pencil in the next day's comic after I get that day's comic inked, it makes the whole process smoother. I'm really trying to do that more.

Inktober '16 comics week 1

It's that time of year again!! ^_^ I feel like I simultaneously love and dread Inktober; I always grow a lot in my skills, but it's a hard won victory! This year is no exception; I'm challenging myself to do a comic everyday. So far, I'm doing ok, but the struggle is real! Here's my first batch. They're pretty mess, but at this point, all I care about is that they're done.

onward and upward,
