Greece is burning, as I'm writing these lines.

Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Aug. 7, 2021ART: wrong time or wrong crowd?
damehelsing at 12:00AM, Aug. 1, 2021
Is there a specific age for a specific art style? Maybe an expiration date for some? Or is it just entirely dependent on the crowd?

Shaking off creator's slump
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, June 18, 2021
The last few months have hit like a sledgehammer, leaving me with a profound sense of “slump”. That feeling of lethargy lazily tangled with a lack of motivation for anything creative. This got me thinking of ways I can shake off this heavy fog and step into the light of ...

On 'Fixing' Art
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, May 22, 2021
So the other day I came across a whole twitter quarrel between a famous Spiderman artist and an anonymous (potentially teenaged) “art fixer”.

Unlikely Mentors
Banes at 12:00AM, March 25, 2021
the cruel tutor himself, Pai Mei
One of my favorite character types is the gruff/grizzled old mentor. Tough as nails, mean or cranky on the outside but with great knowledge or support to offer when you know them, or when they know - and trust - you.
I've talked about ...
Naming a webcomic
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, March 12, 2021
Finding the perfect title for your comic is important. It is what people will use when referring to your work and is often the first thing that readers see. The name of your comic acts as an immediate snapshot of what’s to come. Getting it right is key. Although ...
