TUTORIAL// Creating a comic page
Added 2024-10-08 12:05:56 +0000 UTCSooo I decided to put together a tutorial on creating comics! š
Iāve been making comics pretty much every single day for two years, and this process has changed a lot since I started. While the approach Iām sharing works well for me, itās important to remember that thereās no single "right" way to make comics! Thereās always room for improvement and personal adaptation. For me, thereās definitely a lot I still need to improve. š®āšØ
This tutorial covers the overall process without diving into extreme detail for each step. If you find it helpful or if there's a specific aspect youād like more information on, please let me know!
Hereās the link to the Corris Procreate Pack I mentioned. Itās free and full of awesome brushes! https://ko-fi.com/s/f6c6cf5dd3
The āFunny Inkerā brush I got from another artistās Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/viria), so unfortunately Iām not allowed to share it! You can always sub to her Patreon, though, if you want access to it.
To create better references for the characters's poses, I use the free version of Magic Poser (https://magicposer.com/).
I always feel like Iām not really fit to be teaching others anything when I myself have an entire world of art to learn, but back when I was starting, it was a tutorial similar to this that really helped me, so hopefully this can be helpful to some of you as well! šāāļø

I honestly forget to name or even group them! I should really give it a try sometime xD And I usually create color palettes for individual scenes on the comics, but I tend to just delete those palettes later when I wonāt use them again (most likely)! All in all Iām not the most organized person when it comes to my files š„²

2024-10-12 03:02:49 +0000 UTCI noticed you donāt seem to label or group your layers much. I find it helpful to keep track of what is on each layer and edit multiple ones simultaneously if I have to. Idk if you do this already but color presets are helpful, especially for drawing the same characters over and over. I would always make a long list of hex codes labeled with what they were for, but thereās probably a way to save color swatches and customize their labels. Your colors look great though, the general art style is very pretty.
