Rest and review
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Oct. 18, 2019
Considering how many steps there are in creating comics, planning, plotting, writing, scripting, sketches, pencils, inks or colours and everything in between, it’s important to build in some time for review.

One shots
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Sept. 27, 2019
As a comic creator I have done mainly long series (most of which I have yet to finish) but there was a time where I wrote and completed a one shot comic. It was rough and boy is the art a bit old, but it was an interesting exercise. It ...
Lurker or commenter?
Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Sept. 20, 2019
