( same anon) the one you made in DA. I guess little fan comic.
oh! I assume you do mean the cosium au ones then. I start with a width of around 1200 px to 1500 px.
I do webtoon-style comics for DA, meaning you read by scrolling down. So, the height of the comic varies on how long or short the actual comic/script is.
After I finish actually drawing everything, I resize the width down to around 800 px to 900 px. I do this so the comic is "zoomed" properly at 100% zoom (images on DA default either to full view or 100% 🤧)
It's hard to put into words adhhdhdhdh. I'll add a visual example when I can XD
As for programs! Medibang Paint has a bunch of neat features built specifically for making comics. And it's a free and (iirc) lightweight program too. Most of the comics I've made so far were done in Medibang!
I currently use Clip Studio Paint, which has more advanced features for comic making. But tbh, I don't really use them 😅 My process is very straightforward (use the shape tool for panels and draw literally everything else)
hope this helps anon! I'll add a follow up about the zoom thing when I have the time lol

as it stands currently, I would recommend clip studio paint for a paid art program, which does a lot of what people get out of photoshop and some folks have jumped ship to it from photoshop because of the price hikes.
they do offer a free trial, with quite a few of the features available to test. and a bonus of a community of artists sharing tools for free. like brushes and textures, etc. especially a valuable program for anyone interested in comic creations. they have 50% off sales too, which lead me to buy the pro version first for only $25 last summer. and every quarter they seem to be releasing updates for the program that you have access to. (also available on ipad and iphone but that's as subscription)
tablets are a learning curve for a lot of folks, so don't feel bad if you don't take to it right away, tbh. but honestly you could get a tablet off amazon for $30/$40 for a entry tablet to figure it out if it's something worth throwing more money into later. no need to go for $100+ tablets out the gate.
but well-known totally free programs for computer:
gimp
medibang paint
krita
sai (if you find the hacked version. actually, I have it and would share it with anyone who wants it)
will any of this help someone draw faster? well idk because I'm still trying to figure out how to create faster myself. tutorials are generally helpful though.
Are there any drawing programs and/or tablets that you guys would recommend?
I don't know where to start when it comes to that stuff, but rn my way of drawing is way too time consuming and tedious to be able to draw as often as I'd like ;;
