really happy with how this (unspesified) (heavily velociraptor inspired) raptor lineart is turning out, this is from a comic project i'm working on so stay tuned if you like historical fiction settings with victorians, domesticated dinosaurs and time travel shenanigans !!

How the veggie sausage is made for #WebcomicDay. I have a weird process built entirely around trying to preserve my watercolor textures with severe layer limitations. (This was one of my few files that still had background flats in it!) Enjoy??

Read Fairmeadow!

& Happy Webcomic Day!

(this question is for mun) I've been wondering for a long time, how do you make your backgrounds? they look so realistic?? do you use some kind of 3d/rendering program? or photos? I too use clip studio paint, but I would have no idea how to make the backgrounds look as perfect and realistic as yours😳

Some basic comic paneling advice.

Obviously, this doesn't get into Space Is Time, beats and pacing, or more general composition principles, but it's meant as a starting point to just get panels on a page.

Sometimes layouts are just setting down panels, which you then feel out re: readability and beats. Sometimes what you put down doesn't work, but that's okay! Just keep playing and puzzling.

You can find the half, quarter, and third marks by making lines from the corners of the whole page, then lines from the corners of the vertical half of the page.

Small Rarebit basics to start your webcomic site

pt 1

If you are interested in having your own comic site you may have come across people suggesting rarebit. Rarebit is a comic template you can use to do so.

I do know some HTML and CSS, but even then back when I downloaded rarebit for the first time I was still a bit confused on where to start, so I hope this small guide helps anyone that is interested on starting their own comic site using it.

In this part I’m going to change the logo and navigation buttons on the site.

1.- Download Rarebit from: https://rarebit.neocities.org/ ← You can also read information about it in here and check out other sites that use it.

2.- You will get a zip file with the basic things needed to set up your comic site

3.- You will place these HTML files and folders in your Neocities site dashboard

4.- Changing your logo

If you open the Index right now it will look like this:

I started changing the img files that make up the site to mine for this, starting with the logo, you can find it on the img folder

Select manage, these are the contents of the folder:

characters: stores the images for your characters page

comicnav: the navigation arrows for your site

comics: This is where you place your comic pages, your comic pages have to start with pg and then followed by a number, I will touch on that later.

thumbs: you can place thumbnails for your comic archive, this is optional and you can turn it off, personally I don’t use them but if you want them they are there.

Hildaterry.png: this is a placeholder image for the about page, you can delete it or replace it later on when you build your about page.

logo.png: What I did was open this file and replace it with my own logo, then overwrite, next time you open the index page it will have been replaced.

rarebitlogo_small.png: this is the image used in the credits to give credit to rarebit.

-Once you’ve replaced the logo file for your logo it you will notice the change in the index.

Note. The name of your logo file must have the same exact name of logo.png.

after the change:

Good start isn’t it? You can do this with your nav buttons as well, just replace the files on your comicnav folder.

Comic pages are slowly being drawn, i've been experimenting with different coloring styles! Featurin our protagonist Lana, a late 19th century archeologist... I wonder what she's digging up there... !!

I was struggling with what style i should go with that wouldn't kill me with the amount of work, but this simple soft shading is pretty simple for me to just shlap on !

To get that ''glow'' in the first image I just Ctrl+Shift+C the whole image > paste > gaussian blur > set layer mode to Darken > lower opacity to about 50%

I also duplicate then blur the rim light to give it that glow effect too!
