Dang, almost time to go to work!
🤘🏻A tip I have for sanity sake is, try to start your day with something personal for you before you give your time to something else. You need to pay yourself first.

✏️For me? Gotta get those reps in. Just a little #penciling and nailing down some gestures puts my mind in a good mood to start the day. ⁣

Can you draw an outdoor cafe scene without referen

Can you draw an outdoor cafe scene without reference? Its important for a comic artist, that these places just live in your head and you should be able to summon them in minutes. 🙌 A productive weekend of #makingcomics included a livestream Saturday. 6 pages plotted, thumbnails and 2.5 pages penciled. Not too shabby. I’ll go live Wednesday night on YouTube. Link in bio. ⁣

✏️🙌 Here’s a hack for turning a @sketchbo

✏️🙌 Here’s a hack for turning a @sketchboardpro into a temporary drawing board for quick traditional drawing. I did this because I had a traditional commission on my to-do list and I didn’t want to change my setup, and frankly I really like the angle of the Sketchboard pro.

Simply get some 3m wall hang strips and cut two small squares of it, this does the trick to hold your basic travel Sketchboard directly over your Sketchboard pro. I feel like the Macgyver of cartoonists. 😂✏️💥

My setup for live-streaming or recording. Mostly t

My setup for live-streaming or recording. Mostly this is for @frankchoartist - my goal was to really simplify this process as I was spending more time noodling around with tech and video editing and moving large files around then actually drawing.
#1- I’m using a Nexicam webcam, but any webcam can do. But a higher res 1080 is best. The MacBook Pro only had a 720 front facing cam. Lame! I like the flexibility of the small cam to move around.
-
#2- I’m using @streamyard now, so my 1080 video is streamed live to FB and YouTube, play can be unlisted on YouTube. You can also “record only”. Then download you hit Rez file if you wish to edit or chop it up.

# for overhead shots or traditional drawing vids, I have the SlideGear bar which has lots of nifty attachment spots for lighting or camera angles if I needed it. (Pic 2)

3 - for anyone wanting to feed their ipad or other drawing screens into Streamyard as a “share your screen” you can use QuickTime trick on an app to set a new movie recording, select the device and don’t hit record, just then share QuickTime as an app screen share and away you go. Search for tutorials on YouTube for sharing you iPhone or iPad to zoom calls via QuickTime.

Just finished up a 4hr livestream of my new Deep W

Just finished up a 4hr livestream of my new Deep Work show. That one was for patrons only, and I indeed went pretty deep with stories and tales as I was drawing. Part vlog, part how-to, part motivational, part live QnA... but ALL #makingcomics - the replay is available for patrons of all levels (link in bio)
✏️
Tomorrow I’ll be back on live as I work on another page from the new comic, and this time it will be open to the public. Be sure you’re subscribed to my YouTube channel to be notified when the show is live... links in bio!!!
🤘🏻
