I'm not sure if we've talked about this before, but character creation has so many possible roads.
An interesting one is turning a ‘concept’ into a character. It's been done many times - of course, there are the ancient Gods and Goddesses, that personify different aspects of reality ...
Concepts into Characters...into Canada?

This Quackcast is about using influence wisely! I had a DD comic creator come to me, apparently a bit distressed at some of the things we'd said in our last Quackcast about drawing adult comics- they ...

Happy new year. Happy 2024!
We're doing a year in review show this time because what else do you talk about in the last recorded thing/first presented thing of the year?
We chat a bit ...
The Language of Hands
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Nov. 11, 2023
So I know I got two pending articles to finish up my Religion and my Catharsis series but I'm too tired right now to talk about anything that requires sociopolitical analyses and extrapolations.
So let's talk about hands in comics!
One of the easiest way to mitigate the ...
The Need for Catharsis
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Oct. 28, 2023
Halloween is around the corner!
The swiftly-international-becoming Fright Season, where people dress up and surround themselves in scary imagery and settings. Everything is about the scare, the close brush with death or worse, the thrill of the blood running cold in our veins for seconds before laughing at each other ...
Religion
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Sept. 23, 2023
No, no. I promise this is not a post that will go like this:

A Sense of Entitlement
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, April 8, 2023
Entitlement. Privilege. Obnoxiousness.
We all deal with these things every day, whether we want to or not. It comes in all shapes and sizes. From the kid that throws a tantrum if they can't take some other random kid's toy to the adult that is pissed they stole ...
Being Inclusive vs. Being Authentic
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, March 18, 2023
So for some reason my youtube is being besieged by rant videos over The Little Mermaid live action movie by Disney… AGAIN. You'd think the algorithm would know by now that I only watch ER skits and debunking videos, but here we are.
The controversy (again) is over the ...
