I have a bad habit of rewatching this right before bedtime and getting all fired up to make comics. This is so motivating!
Ha ha thank you!! I'm honored and I definitely know how that feels LOL 😎👍
Watching it now before sleeping
Haha me too I love watching videos before bed 😂

Same here lol
I've been planning a comic for two years but still haven't started. Procrastination Lvl. 100
Edit: 3 years now **cries**
Edit: 4
Edit: Year 5, I'm sitting down and redoing everything. I've redesigned the characters but I'm going to flesh out the world and redo them again, then work on the plot. It's time to work on this silly little comic I started back in school, revisiting it now that I'm an adult and that my art has vastly improved. I'm also far more mature now and can surely make a plotline that's at least a little less cringe than before, hopefully.
It's so easy to do that. really the only thing that has gotten me out of that is doing the 100 days of making Comics challenge. I did that multiple times until I realized I wanted to just work on Comics everyday so now I'm on my second year of 365 days of making comics. It's a life-changer creatively!!! I definitely recommend it!!!
I've been procrastinating since I was 17. I'm 34. :/
You sound like me. Almost the same exact timeline. After I did the 100 days of making Comics challenge a few times that all changed though. now I'm 40 years old and I've made a few comics and I'm on a good path to make a lot more! 😎
Everything in my life
I’ve been planning a comic for 24 years and still goin strong 💪🏽 Procrastination Lvl. ♾
Sucks when you have a great idea, storyline, characters, character traits and the vision of how you want it to look and go but you suck at drawing and creating dialogue like me lol xD
Make a novel, or start screenwriting then :)
Easy, collab with an artist and do a George and Harold comic collab

I know exactly what you mean - I feel the same and I know your pain! It’s extremely frustrating not to be able to translate the awesome ideas from your head into reality on paper. I can make kind of OKish art using a tablet, but what takes me literally 10-15 hours would take a decent artist about 20 minutes, and that really dispirits me and I don’t know how to get past it. But what I would say to you is don’t give up practising learning to draw.

I stumbled into making a comic a few years ago. My husband was diagnosed with cancer and during his surgery and treatment, I had a ton of nervous energy. So I grabbed a cheap sketchbook and just started drawing. Looking back, I can see the growth of my ability as the comic progresses. It begins with circles for heads on sticks and by the end the characters (my family and the medical team in charge of my husband's care) have bodies and full faces.
It's not awesome level art, but the difference between the first page and the last pages are significant.
I still would like to read that comic if you ever want to publish it! I've ended up doing the same thing and expressing myself through comics. Hope your husband is doing better, and you're doing well.
How is your husband? Are you still making comics?
art can be therapeutic like that. sketching is a good coping skill for a multitude of stressful situations and conditions.
Started my comic. I am now on page 7
That's so awesome nice work!
@Counterfeit Hokusai Page 15. I paused a bit as Dad is poorly.
@Counterfeit Hokusai Thanks a lot. The premise is about a cop who is going after a ruthless cartel responsible for distributing illegal drugs that mutates humans into grotesque but super powered creatures. It's set in the future.
@Counterfeit Hokusai I love Gen Rex! however, what really inspired me (storywise) was Robocop 2 and Blade Runner.
@@Omnitrix8 please don't stop
I need to not throw away my art
Sell it. Maybe.
I lost mine. Teachers and stuff will do that.
I know. I hate myself every time I see RUclips videos of people going through their old art and sometimes redoing the painting/drawing to see how much they grew. 😭

I've wanted to draw comics since I found a passion for art in high school but always felt daunted by the amount of work people have to put into one project and as a result have constantly procrastinated for years, these are some really awesome tips for starting out thank you man!
Your welcome! Good Luck! 😎👍
I love comics
We should team up...
I created a comic as a kid is called
*The adventure of GamerBoy*
Literally it was cringy,horrible but my siblings LOVED it
Post it on your channel
I made a book no one could understand it
It was also very cringy
I never finished it
Very good advice!! Young artist trying their hand in the comic field are under the summation that their comic needs to be 24 pages and high end quality. Glad there are other artist out on the web that's breaking that mind set and introducing them to mini comics and ashcan comics. Low production, low budget, low risk. Not only it's helpful for skill building but allows new artist to gauge their
Absolutely! Those are great points Logan! Thanks man!
I'm making a comic called "Earning Your Wings", it's about a wingless dragon who meets a bird who can't fly. Not totally sure how to go about it but I'm determined 😤 any advice on how to make my story appealing?
sounds like a cool story idea!
Study story writing in general. Look into the story embryo method by Dan Harmon.
As far as the art goes if you focus on design principles and clear storytelling it will definitely help your story be more appealing!
Of course the better you are at drawing will always help but even if you're not the most skilled artist if you're able to have clear storytelling and good design you can do well!
Feel free to message me anytime with questions or progress and I'd be happy to take a look 😎
And also for the color palette make it exotic and colorful
@@acidicjosh3813 thanks for the advice!
This reminds me of an ending of a story I read a while ago. It went like "I would have followed you if I could fly." T.T I really like the idea!
A bird hits the dragon on the head because it was pushed out of its nest by its mom, echoing the morning that this dragon has been having.
This was SO helpful! I had no idea mini comics even EXISTED, thank you so much!
Your very welcome! 😎👍
They are basically Ashcan comics
@@thebman80 just a little bit
I'm only 10 years old and I have a Full on comic series called Pixel palz. And next year Pixel palz the Movie will come out. Not in theaters though. And at My School Pixel pals is a Big hit! Speaking of My school,My school's gonna Do an event next year With Me. And currently I am working on Pixel pals 16. But next year I will continue production with Pixel palz!
Walker Murphy Sounds interesting, Where can i read it?
Woah-- that's actually really cool 👀
Good luck!
O mah goodness! You’re ten?!
I wanna read it🙋🏻♀️
You should post it in Tapas!
Vsuvi
Oh heck yeah, I want to read it too 👀👀 it sounds really good!!
I came here to claim my «DREAM» Sir!!! Mini comics are cool and simple for me, i think
I think so too! Do it! 😎👊
A year? Try 9
Dude, you just blew my mind. I definitely need to do this approach instead of keep storing information in my head to make a whole project. You really blew my mind!
Good man glad it helped! 😎👍
Outline stories. Don't try and remember every little detail
Nice
Wow
As a 14 year-old with basically no art skills, this is pretty helpful
Thanks man
So glad it is. Good luck!
Not me watching this at 4am wanting to make a comic and then waking up in a few hours forgetting about making a comic. NOT ME.

This is actually pretty brilliant in terms of learning how to produce comics. Simple, efficient, and seeing your work printed is an awesome motivator for greater things.
Thank you glad you thought so! 😎👊
Me, my art teacher, and my friend are going to make a comic. I'm excited to start, and don't know where to start. This helped a lot!

Sara Khan ain’t nobody care
@@Jayri753 Pronunciation has nothing to do with it.
Sara Khan “Pronounce” is verbal. So the proper way to state your correction would be: “The grammatically correct form would be ‘My art teacher, my friend, and I.”
I'm making a police based comic book called, Fingerguns. It's sorta like Brooklyn Nine Nine
cool cool cool
Not cool any how bruh🙄🙄

Seeing those mini comics actually gave me so much hope. I am wanting to do manga myself but seeing that reminded me just how much it matters just to make "something". It's better to make something than have anxiety and make nothing.
Tbh it kinda brought me back to how I started reading comics. Long before picking up manga and having a lifelong obsession with it I would always pick up Archie comics at the store and cut out Pearls Before Swine and and Calvin and Hobbes comics. I actually still have a lot of tuem hung on my walls.
It's kinda the notion of getting it out of my head that something needs to be long to be worth it. Heck one of my favorite manga is actually super short, Voynich Hotel from Dowman Seiman is such a treat and yet it's these short episodic adventures pretty much the whole way through.
It feels good to really think about how broad of a thing comics can be. Also makes it make a lot more sense why manga publishers tend to have up and coming mangaka submit one shots first.
I tend to get overwhelmed by the fact that I usually have many chapters written out and thus the workload that entails, but the thing is to focus on the first chapter. Don't even worry about the others until it's done, it's fine to write stuff but don't worry about adapting it into drawing form until I have the previous chapter done. You are going on the list of people to send my work to once I have something, and this is the first video I have seen from you lol.
This video changed my mind on mini comics. I had myself stuck in the traditional size comic/graphic novel mindset, and total honesty kinda looked down on tables at cons with comics in similar format. But using as tool for experimentation and learning to quickly and affordably try new things is such a great idea. Thank you for this video. I definitely see mini comics in my future now.
Haha glad to have another convert lol good luck on your mini-comic endeavors!!! 😎👍
This inspired me to go ahead and print my mini comic. It's a good feeling to hold your first comic in your hands.
It totally is! Congratulations man keep it up!!! 😎👍
Congrats!! 🎉🎈
It's been ten minutes after watching this video, and I am already lining up a page for a mini comic. Hopefully, I'll finish it in a couple of days. I can't express how thankful I am!
I’m so glad! Keep up the good work!
I'm an artist, but I'm not very good at writing, so what I like to do is take scenes from books/series and draw them in about three panels. It's good practice and also very fun!
Wow that’s a really interesting exercise I might have to try that!
Wow that’s a really interesting exercise I might have to try that!
Wow!! That little mini-comics seem like a good way to start. It isn’t so intimidating! I’ll definitely try these :)
That's awesome they are still a little bit of work but tons of fun too! I think I'm going to make another one soon hopefully! 😎👍
Start small. I'm taking this to heart. I've read and watched so many comic book makers and realized that starting small is no shame and is part of a big learning curve.
This is absolutely what i needed. I've been working on my own story while drawing out the characters and writing the first rough chapters of my comic for a while now, i knew where the story was headed. But i wasn't sure how i was going to approach it. Without a doubt i WILL be starting my first mini comic as soon as possible. Thank you soo much for the video!!!.
Your Welcome! Good luck! 😎👍
I had no idea that mini comics were even a thing 😱 I’ve been interested in cartoons my entire life. My dad is an artist, and mostly does cartoon styles drawings/paintings. I’ve always struggled as an artist. I’ve tried drawing and painting, and always struggled finding my own style...but lately I’ve been drawing more cartoons, and it seems to come to me more naturally than the other things I’ve tried. I definitely want to try drawing up some mini comics now!
"You can do it on your printer."
Me who doesn't have a printer: ...
You can also print it on other places like he said
I’ve been wanting to start making comics for a little while now as a way to tell the stories of my oc’s & I went into this video planning to skim through & get some basic tips, but I ended up watching the entire video since you explain everything so well & the comics you showed really inspired me. Thank you so much for this!
Your very welcome! I’m revisiting this idea myself to get back to kind of re build 😎👍
What markers are good for cardstock without it showing on the other side of the paper?
I think that's exactly what I need to do. I have so many ideas... It would be great to explore them.
In the 90s, artists used to make "ash cans," comics that were basically what you described. It would be a great way to make promotional material, gain buzz & interest in a project.
Exactly man! Good luck on yours!
I really appreciate this video ;; I've been struggling real hard on how to start. I've built up this whole world and explored it so much it's hard to get it down on paper. Starting small is a good idea. and you're excitement and earnestness makes me feel better and that I can start. thank you
My comic has been 'on hold' for a few months. This advice is just what I needed. Thanks and btw your comics look cool!
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
So, my partner and I have been plotting out this big graphic novel series so a while. But neither of us have the skill level to draw it yet.
But this inspired me to get started on something to get us there. So thank you!
Oh man I was about to give up and OH BOY BACK TO THE DRAWING BOOK.
Came so far and almost gave up. What a life changing event 🤣
I took a "Comics in Society" class in high school and it was amazing fun. I made so many different short comics and I learned a lot about how to approach it. I haven't made comics in years, but after seeing your video I think I may start up again!
Thank you so much for sharing this! Watching this has made me realize why I've scrapped too many comic ideas in the past: I always think I can pull off BIG ideas that slowly start to intimidate me. Like biting of more than I can chew; I fight with ideas inside my head too much with little action occuring.
I think I'm going to give this a shot and finally do something. It looks like a fun activity to do, and I love the novelty of mini comics.
Awesome! Glad to help!
Im 17 and comic writing is something I really been so into. I've been into drawing sence pre-school always looking forward to learn stuff and get better thanks. 😊
Wow, I haven’t felt this level for excitement in many many years! Thanks for the video, really really takes me back to the time I was little and wanted to do my own comic but never ever started on it because it all looked so daunting...it’s time to begin!!
I struggle massively with creating vague, grand ideas in my head and never sincerely starting them.. this video is DEFINITELY WHAT I NEEDED! Best way to practice is by doing, and it's satisfying to have something DONE in under a week..very motivating..THANK YOU SIR!!
I loved this. When I was a kid in the 60s all I did was read comics and make mini-comics. This brought back a lot of memories. I had super heroes and hardy boys type stories and I think even a lost in space type one.
I think I might start doing them again.
That's awesome man!
I started my comic with absolutely no planning and now I'm just trying to watch a bunch of videos on story planning before I continue forward lmao
Thank you. Thats all I can say. I have this great idea for a superhero story that was going to be a movie (I am an ametuer writer/director) and after realizing how daunting of a task that would be I turned it into a novel, but I am first and foremost a visual story teller. A comic book is the way to go and you unpacked it so simply and made it feel like an achievable goal for a first timer. Its late as hell for me right now and a school night too but I could care less, if I dont do it now I never will. This has been the most inspirational video Ive probably ever seen and you instantly earned my subscription.
Your advice is great. I would have never thought of this. Like you I am stuck reading dozens of how to do comics books and I have not started yet. I now know step one. Jezz man, thank you, I really mean it.
I back this video all the way! My first comic was a mini 16-page short story that I self-printed, cut, folded and stapled and it gave me the experience I needed to do a full-length story that I had been wanting to start forever and plan to kickstart this year!
That's awesome man! that's why I wish I knew this when I was much younger but oh well I'm putting it into action now 😎👨🎨
Great advice thank you! I thought about being an author but realized my skills are more comic related, since I think more visually. I need to figure out my stories and get started! Thanks dude!
Awesome Your Welcome. Good luck! 😎👍
I can't believe I hadn't thought of this yet. This sounds like the exact advice I got about writing short stories! I'm a beginner in writing too, but starting out with this bite-sized format has helped to reduce some of the pressures of getting started or feeling I have to create huge and complex pieces, all while still encouraging exploration and learning. There is a method to short stories vs novels that's a little different, as I imagine is the same with mini comics vs graphic novels, but it has still helped me to know that I am little by little laying down these foundations that will serve as a necessary skillset to eventually tackle larger ideas one day
You are a God-send! I've been looking how to start my story, and I've looked at the big leagues like DC and Marvel, but they make me feel like a small fish in a big pond. I believe in my story, but I have always been looking for the right "platform" to start my story from. I happen to come across your video today when doing my homework. Mini-comics to me feel so "NIRVANA". Anyway, thank you for this video! At this point it is up to me to make my dream come true, but let it be known, you were the right flavor I was looking for. Good night!
When you first started talking i wasent sure what to expect but i can tell you the bar was pretty low. And now that I've watched it, all i can say is Thank you.
Watching this motivated me in a way other people haven't been able to. So thanks for that.
You're so welcome I'm glad it was helpful! 😎👍
Thank ` u greatly for ur video .... Ive now started to try once again with my comic book ideas
This absolutely blew my mind! You know, actualy I've been thinking many times of starting simple and make mini comics to practice, but I don't know why I never started doing that.
I realized that my anatomy practices would become WAY more fun if I implement this, so thanks for reminding me that!
Thank you so much for this video. The joy I can hear in your voice when you talk about comics is very inspiring! The accessibility of mini comics gives me no reason to procrastinate!
i think i can get past procrastinating now
i just made fist manga on my channel
do u mind checking it out and let me know wat u think?
Thank you yeah Im pretty amped up on comics for sure LOL 😎
Awesome! Yeah I'll check it out!
Thank you so much for your great advice, now I have confident to make my own mini comic!
I'm glad I could be helpful! Good luck!
im beyond glad I came across your channel! this was big time motivation thanks man!
This is actually a great idea. I've been planning a comic story for a while and I think making mini comics would be a good way to ease into the process
Your video has been in my recommended for a while now. I'm starting my comic. Thanks for the motivation.
Your welcome!!
i started mine today on my channel
u can check it out if u want
This is awesome. I'm so inspired. I have wanted to make my own comic book but I felt overwhelmed. I have that Marvel book and others. I studied a lot of Conan, Savage Sword of Conan. I wanted to do historically based comics. This really got me inspired. Thank you for this video.
So much inspiration in history! What times are you most interested in exploring? Glad you dig the video 😎
Thank you! Over time I got worse at drawing because I stopped practicing and now I want to make comics and this really helped!
I was scrolling looking for other comic heads and found your page. I am currently working on my 2nd comic book and I was just telling a friend the other day I have SO many ideas but drawing comics take forever. I have done small web comic strips in the past, but I never made a mini comic book. I think you just inspired me.
Awesome good luck!!!
First, I have to say that this is amazing advice for beginners who have lots of ideas in their head, but is daunted when facing the paper. Remind them to start small, tiny small. Crawl before you walk or run.
Second, I randomly found you recommended to me on my youtube feed. Probably one of the few times youtube has actually recommend a video that was useful and not fluff.
Third, checked out your videos and found you to be grinding it out for 9 years. Keep up the good work and staying true to yourself.
Thank you! I'm really glad you got so much from this! 😎👊
mini comics are a great way to flesh out ideas as well. at one time all i had on me were a small stack of blank 3x5 cards, that I used to sketch out images that would catch my eye. I outlined a comic idea with text and sketches that i used to create out a single sheet , no staple 8 page mini comic.
Don't over think it, just pick up your pencil and *DRAW!*
I love it!!! 😎👊🏻
Starting with just two characters and one or limited settings like you said you did with your first one - that was what I needed to hear to get me passed my block. Thanks.
This os truly an inspiring video. During the early 2000 I was a "indi" publisher, I worked as a Graphic artist and illustrator for several print shops in my area and loved comics, I found out that there was a healthy community of other artists that were making their own comics and to make this story short managed to make regular schedule comic with a small but reliable fan base, make a comic strip for local biggest running news paper for 3 years and worked on several collective comics until 2015, then everything stops. Self imposed banishment mixed with apathy and depression kept me away of doing comics, I still do art and sell it but all the comics I've done during that time haven't seen the "light of day". At 51 I do have the respect of my peers but I also notice that I'm also seen as a hasbeen or old geezer pulling me back to my "hiatus black hole". Thank you for sharing this video, it truly gave me a new vision or approach to print my "lock away stored comics". You have a new subscriber. Thanks.
You inspire me // I was planning on drawing a comic book but i think i will start off with mini comics and develop later
Awesome! Glad I could help! 😎👍
I find the hard part is developing a story! The drawing is easy and fun
Developing the story can be fun too! I'm definitely going to do videos on that as well very soon!
I actually have lots of ideas for comics, the thing is my motivation is terrible.
Hey bro. Thank you for this video. This is honestly like such amazing motivation and therapy for me. I appreciate your instruction and insights. Such simplicity and clarity. I can't thank you enough brother.

Thank you so much! I decided to make the first comic book today and you were the one that help me!
Mini-Zines are fantastic. I've been making and drawing short little gags for years. But am now on the path of creating my own feature... Aka 'Strange Floaters'.
Great video!
Awesome! And Thank You! 😎
My cousin has been feeling really down lately and we both love to draw so I think I’m gonna try to get him to make mini comics with me. This video gave me a good idea. Thanks a lot!!!
Anytime! Good luck!
Just popping in to say that this video was all I needed, I went from notes on paper to 'published' in less than 24 hours. Thank you for the push.
My first comic was on just printer-paper with stickmans. About a guy who was punched into the galaxy up and down.😂
Now I’m working on a comic with 22 pages and I still have to design a few of the characters, vechiles and monsters.
Thanks for the inspiration.

This gave me motivation to work on my first comic. Even if my art is garbage, it felt great! Going to do another when I get time next week. Thanks a ton!
Nice
I just seen this on my feed. Awesome video man and you definitely have me as a new subscriber.
I really appreciate that! I'm glad I could help! 😎👍
I am currently working on a comic to visually accompany my band's music. I was starting to have doubts about the style of the comic, due to my head being stuck in the artstyles of Marvel and DC. You just opened a whole new world to me and now I can't wait to make it happen. Thank you!
This was really inspiring thank you! I feel this can be a grate way to test out art styles and techniques to!
I really like how you actually respond to people’s questions 👍
I try 😎👍
Thank you for making this video, sometimes we forget making a comic/manga doesn't mean creating a 300+ chapters masterpiece like the next One Piece or Bleach, you really toned it down to an healthy, challenge-able size.
So glad it was helpful!
Thanks a lot Mr Marsh, very helpful video, in this lockdown I wanted to make mini comics, but didn't know how to start now I can get started ,thanks👍
Words fail me to express my gratitude for this video. This has inspired me immensely. You are brilliant for sharing your thoughts in this video.
Great video Marsh! I really wanna try your 1 hour challenge. Love the "start today" tip. So true.
Thanks Teresa! I hope you do!!! 😎🎨
How did my RUclips feed know that I was gonna start making my own comic?! 😂. Thanks for this man, it’s a really awesome idea that I’m gonna use to quickly get my ideas down and learn from so that I can transfer them to larger comics later 👍
Awesome! Yeah these social media sites have a creepy way of reading our minds 😂
i've been putting off this big comic idea i've had for almost a year now and this is sincerely so nice to hear. thanks man✌
I had that first book years ago, I gave it to one of my daughters who is an artist but not an illustrator
Gotcha. Good stuff! 😎
I found this video very inspirational. And I have already made 7 issues of my own mini comic! It's a horror anthology called God-Awful Comics. It's a great hobby to get into! I'll share this video on my Facebook page. Thanks for the encouragement!
Sweet Thank You! 😎👊
Dude. Thank you so much for this video! Every time I try to get started I get overwhelmed and quit. But mini comics!!! A great idea I never thought of! I'm totally making one today!
That's really cool thanks for this! I recently had a good idea for a story and it wont end in my mind, I keep pushing it to the next level and I dont how Im doing it 😆 but Ive been writing on notebooks, and my phone everytime I think of something new for my story. This method looks like a much cooler way of doing it! Thanks again!
Love your videos man, so positive,so helpful, just really awesome.
I'm really glad you like them! 😎👊
God bless you and your family, thank you for sharing your knowledge and ideas, and I just subscribed. Keep up the great work!
Your Welcome and Thank You! 😎
Thank you. My family has been going through a living hell these last 12 years and sometimes its so hard to think of a way out, to think of new ways to succeed, to remember there's always a way in. People like you making videos like this to help, to motivate, to inspire those that aspire to create...Thank You. God Bless
Hello so apparently your comment is still here. It never got deleted. This video gets a lot of comments everyday and sometimes life causes me to not be able to reply to everyone which I hate because I’ve always been big on replying to comments. That being said like I said in my reply to your other comment I’m really sorry your family has been going through a rough time. I can definitely relate. I think I’ve used the term “Living Hell” even on my vlogs on this channel to describe what my life has been like this past decade as well. It’s actually part of why I make videos like this when I can because I know how much of a struggle life is and things like this can really help even if your only able to chip away a little of creative work a day. I really hope things turn around soon for you and your family Josh! My wife and I will be praying that it it does. God Bless You as well man! Keep Your Head Up!!!
Damn this guy got some serious dedication to still look through the comments section, mad respect dude

This video got me excited. I was always thinking of the big production and would give up. One of the sayings I live by is "success is the best motivator". So if I can finish a small comic I will be able to get better. Thank you.
Im looking into making comics and this video is fantastic! Thank you!
Your welcome! 😎👍
Using marvel as my frame of reference was pretty intimidating. Trying to draw out my big thoughts on page is hard, so starting small is a great idea! Thanks for the tips!
Your welcome glad it's helpful! 😎
Your video reminded me of my mini comic that, fortunately, it is among my oldest sketchbooks. I made it when I was at early primary school with colorful drawings of animals. Each page and one animal with a tiny text about them in the forest, in their nest, with their friends, etc.! Thank you so much for your advice!!!😄👏
I’m 14 years old and I originally wanted to be an electrical engineer but when I studied I almost fell asleep. The job seemed boring. Not as fun as I thought it was gonna be. I decided to try something that was fun. Then I thought, I can try making comic books. So now I am thinking of coming up with a dog comic book character but needed to look up advice on how to creat him. So this video did help a bit.
Thank you so much. This means everything.
I'm glad it's helpful!
I want to make a regular mini comic series for my college, thank you, sir. I'll star right away.
Awesome! Good Luck!! 😎👍
This actually helped a lot, I was originally intending on just jumping straight into making this elaborate series of comics but in reality I think starting small will be much better for me. Thank you.
Thanks man, that was the best tip ever on the matter for me. Have been holding 5 pots with characters for years now and at some point it just drives you nuts when you feel like having no time and beeing exhausted from work or everyday responsibilities. I even remember drawing a minicomic in 2010 and how much fun it was. Thanks for reminding me
Love the video. My favorite artist is Jim Lee, legendary artist of Marvel, DC, and co founder of Image. I’m working on a storyline, look, and whole new origin story/character of a new Spider-Man. It’s so fun doing concept art for every character, hero, villain, and thanks for giving me pointers like these. ✌🏻 Subbed
Thanks for subbing! Yeah Jim Lee is a legend for sure and seems like a really cool guy as well!
