馃巸 Comicween Update (3 DAYS LEFT!!!) 馃巸
I really wanted to post updates along the way of this month, but this month has actually been really hectic. I did wanna post something to maybe inspire some last minute entries. This is basically a callout to any aspiring comic artists out there. ESPECIALLY to the ones who have never made a comic before. Comicween in case you don't know, is one of those October challenges. Except instead of making a bunch of illustrations every day, you make a single comic for the whole month. All you have to do is follow the prompts theme, and make whatever size comic you want. The prompt for this year was (Haunted House/Scary Stories).
We really liked the haunted house angle, so we started to spitball. The premise me and @unhinged-bug went with was the bottom one.
(these might be too grand of ideas for the last 48 hours, but you are welcome to steal anything from our idea document HERE.) I was really inspired by @radiomaru (Bryan Lee O'Malley) and an old 2012 tumblr post he wrote about how he went about writing/making comics. This is where I mention that I've always wanted to make comics, but having had a lot of self doubt and trauma, I would always get stuck on the idea phase. Let alone actually trying to go through a comic process. In enters a really cool person @unhinged-bug who has for the year or two of knowing her, been pumping out comic after comic. I don't know about you, but to see someone just do the thing you want to do. It's really inspiring. And to get back to Comicween, she was the originator. She did it all by herself last year, and out of our tiny group of art friends, was the only one to finish a comic. Which you can read HERE. I never finished myself, but I managed to get over my own hangups enough to make a single page, VERY inspired by the first page layout of Scott Pilgrim.
A lot of the reasons I was afraid was due to feeling like I didn't know what I was doing + feeling like no one would care. And that's what Comicween was actually all about. It's just comic making at it's chillest and craziest. Just make a comic to make a comic. No pressure. Just a comic challenge to share with other comic artists. Less like Inktober, more like Scott McCloud. Which brings us back to this year. I could show you the brainstorm:
or the script. Or I could go into lengths about the story-boarding process.
But I'm actually not. It is as the time of writing this October 28th 2024 (11:08pm). I still have tons of work to finish the collab submission between me and @unhinged-bug. I'm tired, nervous, and scared that we won't finish. But i'm also learning so much, and having so much fun. I have grown more as a comic artist in this single month than my entire 24 years of being alive. This post was really for me to throw out into the void a call of arms to any comic/wannabe comic artists who have an hour or two to kill for the last 48 hours of Comicween. Expecially if you've never made a comic before, and even if it's a mess. Don't be like me and hold yourself back from making cool shit. I would love to see what comics anyone comes up with. Even if it's 1 page. Anyone that makes a 2 page comic will get special fanart from me. Let's have fun and suffer together this Halloween >:) 馃巸馃巸馃巸
#i posted this on the wrong blog but i have a 30 paged comic to finish so i gotta just accept that this is my life now#hi to anyone reading this#comicween

馃巸 COMICWEEN 2024!!! 馃巸
I participated in a little challenge my friend @the-bog-boy came up with last year. She wanted to do it again, but this time it's public!! Instead of stuff like Inktober, this challenge is designed to be the opposite vibe. All you have is one prompt for the whole month. It would really mean a lot to me if other people gave this challenge a shot. If not, then that's okay too. I'm actually gonna be teaming up with her to make a collab comic for the challenge, and I can't wait to show everyone what we got in store!! I'll draw fanart for anyone who submits a comic that is more than 2 pages!! >:) Oh, and we post on Halloween!!! If anyone does do this challenge, please tag it with: #Comicween2024
