So this is how I'm tackling the size mismatch snafu: on far right, my original csp file. Left: the new, corrected one, copying as much as I can (yay big screen). I'm simplifying *greatly* my messy layer structure to get this done asap. This thing should already be at the printer. Wish me luck. 🥹

Soo, major rookie mistakes were made. My comics' artwork wasn't made to the exact specifications of the chosen printer and here I am moaning about repositioning everything and remake most of the coloring. 😭 Fortunately it is just about twenty pages, but it still sucks. Lesson learned. 🥲

Even if many kids have smartphones these days (they shouldn't imo) this got me in sort of a dilemma to resolve a remote conversation on my forthcoming comics work. I figured out they could have basic Nokia-like things for calls so I went with it. The sort of phone we all had in the 90s. #kidscomics

Currently I’ve been between B and C, and I know success if any won’t be immediate and if I run out of money before time I’ll have to settle back for a day job (where, in my 50s?). But I’m of the mind that I’ll rather try and fail, than wallow in what-if land forever. 🤞🔥

Today's duty: ink, color and hopefully finish the cover of my TBA selfpub comic. I'm convinced books DO get judged by their covers so I'm aiming for extra finesse on all details. 🤞

Someone will make a killer story with this, I know

So I just spotted this and I swore @meganroseruiz.bsky.social could have designed it ☺️

You don't need a fancy sketchbook. Or fancy pencils. or pens. Heck, not even paper if you're so determined. And very specially not eye-aye. The will of intention —to draw, to goand learn through the process— is the important thing. Everything else are just refinements. ✏️

Big animation studios are cooked. Scorched earth. Done. Up-and-coming talents in the field better start thinking in terms of forming indie cluster alliances rather than pretend to get a job where there won't likely be any. 🥹

And know what? On principle, ça me semble très bien. The Internet is a horrid place for kids and none of my kidlit projects involve them being online anyway. Au contraire 🧐 Now, that age verification thing comes with a whole set of attached strings though...
