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 ...
The Dance Scene
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 24, 2018Lending a hand | The practice of cross-promotion

The hardest part of creating a webcomic is not the writing or the art, but actually attracting and retaining those coveted pairs of eyes. Building an audience, particularly when you are starting out with no prior projects, feels like a never-ending uphill trek and there more than a few pitfalls ...
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 ...
Depicting Cultures Different than Your Own
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 10, 2018
Depicting a culture different to ours can be a tricky process.

Love Spells and Love Potions
Banes at 12:00AM, Feb. 8, 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 ...

Emma_Clare at 12:00AM, Feb. 2, 2018
So here we are.
The final part.
The end of the journey.
Settle in kids because this is looooong. I’m going to get a bit real and it may be confronting for some people so I just want to warn you.

Wall Mural Art
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Jan. 22, 2018
What usually comes to mind when staring at a blank white wall on the outside of a building or on the inside of a nice restaurant? I am no stranger to mural art in all parts of the process: I have studied it, designed for it, and painted many around ...

We're going build a comment notification system for DD so you can know who commented and when on which piece of art easily. And also who replied to your comments.
There are lots of cool perks ...
