Enjoying the work
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Oct. 22, 2022
So this might be a little tricky. We're webcomic artists. We make webcomics that are a ridiculously composite and tough undertaking, all on our own- and we like it. We really do because it rarely pays the hours and skill that goes in them, but we still do it ...
Being Confident in Your Work
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Oct. 8, 2022
Hah. Easier said than done, right?
Ask any artist about how much they like the stuff they make, and chances are you'll get a mixed bag of answers where most will be saying how they wish they'd done the stuff better. The anatomy isn't quite right, the ...

the happy family with a tear/slash between them is the perfect visual for yuppie horror stories!

Tension and Release and appreciation for Watcher

Watcher (2022) is a fairly unknown new movie, I think, and I recommend it. Simple, well-made, and scary.
Might as well get an early start on the October celebration, here - the fall is my favorite season, for so many reasons, including the time to celebrate our love for the scary ...

Mind Tricks 2 - The Phantom Life

On the last “Mind Tricks” discussion, we talked about false memories, where a characters' true nature is hidden from them because of memory loss or artificial memories.
The Phantom Life is similar, certainly in the two examples that I thought of initially…but the stories play out
in a different ...
The Art That Made Us
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, May 7, 2022
A million things have already been said and talked about regarding an artist's inspiration. A million more will be. From debates on what constitutes inspiration vs. poaching or plagiarism to what makes an artist inspired by other artists' work.
But what I want to talk about is not exactly ...
