LISTEN!
Jason Moon, author of Crater's Edge, messaged me about some comments he had. He was perturbed about reader reaction to his storyline and wasn't sure how to handle the comments. I told him that those sorts of comments are the very greatest compliment an author can get ...

Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 27, 2018On Stand-Up Comics and Natural Humour
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Feb. 26, 2018
Last Wednesday, I was lucky enough to snag some tickets to a stand up comedy club in Downtown San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter. I am an avid fan of Saturday Night Live from the early 2010s/Bill Hader era. Therefore, I constantly stream stand up routines of my favorite comics ...
The Dance Scene
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 24, 2018
Just like the table scene, the dance scene can be an invaluable story telling tool: a way to showcase where your characters stand without having to force them to speak about it or have someone else infodump about it.
This stance can be on the characters that dance (i.e ...
Nothing Under the Sun
Banes at 12:00AM, Feb. 22, 2018
A friend of mine, many years ago, showed me a cartoon that was fascinating, funny, and horrifying. In my memory, it was the first anime I'd ever seen. I'd forgotten most of it over the years, and would try to find it once every so often, without knowing ...
Quackcast 362 - Triumph der Ente
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 20, 2018 LISTEN!
In this Quackcast we chat about all the different options for hosting your webcomic. At the moment it seems the fashionable new young kiddies on the block are Webtoons and Tapastic, but they're certainly NOT the only choices for webcomic hosts out there and certainly not the best ...
Fallopiancrusader's Goldmine of Technical Drawing Tutorials
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Feb. 19, 2018
If you have been on the forums over the last few months, you would notice that DrunkDuck's very own brilliant artist, fallopiancrusader, has been creating videos in which he demonstrates how he creates his illustrations on computer.
One type of art he has mastered is conceptual sketches using technical ...
Writing into (and out of) the corner
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 17, 2018
So you've written this awesome scene, or placed your pawns (aka characters) just perfectly to create a perfect scenario… and then you are stuck.
There is no way you can solve the problem in a way that pans out well for the character or the plot, or what you ...
Quackcast 361 - Primordial Creations
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 13, 2018 LISTEN!
Today we talk about where our characters began, not their origin stories or why we started writing them but rather what they used to look like! Pitface was inspired to create a thread based on this idea by Emma Clare's newspost series of origin stories. So we just ...
Quackcast 360 - How did you start in webcomics?
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Feb. 6, 2018 LISTEN!
In this Quackcast I thought we'd chat about Emma Clare's great and thoughtful topic of webcomic origin stories:
Basically, what was happening to make you start your webcomic on DD, all that stuff in your life back when you first began posting… Emma's newsposts are a ...
It’s the Mileage
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 3, 2018
A discussion at twitter (you should be there! If you haven’t looked for @Drunkduck you should, add DD and you’ll be added back!) brought to my attention a very subtle but very aesthetically and narratively pleasing element that, when we take the time as artists to factor it ...
