  • In this episode I draw page 13 of First Son and Sword. I talk about left to right movement on the page, flow, designing Crocodile City, and working with brick and stone work as well as patterns and repetition.

    Dude! That was some inspiring stuff. Your dedication to the craft really comes through in your narration and decision making on the page. Wishing you all the success with this project! Just subbed.
    Couple of questions: Are you working at print size here? Definitely looks smaller than the typical 11x17 right? What are your thoughts on page size when doing stuff traditionally?

    • @ikecomics

      Thanks! Actually it is 11x17 inches. I’ve always done that size and scale it down to a standard comic book size. I like working from that size and learning to just draw larger but also learning not to just add more details just because it’s larger.

    Hey there Ike. I am fairly new to your channel. I like to write and draw comics too. I even went to art school. I studied writing and visual arts. It's people like you that inspire me and remind me not to give up on my dream. Sometimes I think, I made a mistake having gone to art school. Then, I see shows like this and see other people getting therapy from their art. I now watch your stuff regularly. Also, a question. You talk about your drawing process. How does it start in the writing stage? Do you draw thumbnails and then put in the dialogue or do you write in a notebook and then type it up. I reccommend you do a video on how you write. Do you write the story first and then draw it or is it improved? Anyways, sorry if this is a dumb question, I am still going through your videos to catch up! Anyways, You got skills! ROCK ON!

      I write it first. For a bigger project like the one I’m on, I do a lot of notes on the world building and the different characters and what their main story arcs are and what not. I gather some references and do some sketchbook work to kind of work out the look of the world. I write a loose script, sometimes without page numbers even, just shot by shot in paragraphs. Then I thumbnail it and draw it, and fine tune dialogue as I go. But as I’m drawing the Comic, I change my mind on some of the scenes and I allow myself to go back and rewrite what’s coming up. So I keep a loose script that I can keep changing as I go. That just works better for me.

      I’d suggest Facebook groups meant for comic artists and writers to connect. If you’ve done your homework and are willing to pay, there are great artists looking for work for around $100 page.

    making comics is fun, but they are boring to read, especially more than once. Is there a decent market for selling comic books?

    • @ikecomics
      @ikecomics  Год назад

      It’s hard to answer if there’s a decent market or not. There’s so many indie comic books out there that get so little attention and distribution, but there’s also a growing market for young adult graphic novels, for example. For me, I’d have to agree that making comics is more fun than reading them but that’s because I obsessed with making comics! To your other comment, it would be interesting to consider what qualities make a book more enjoyable to be read multiple times. Maybe if they are really funny, really beautiful, and are just plain easy to read, maybe. Also, something I love about comics is that if you love a book, you want to share it with someone else, even if you don’t want to read it more than once yourself.

      Boring to read? That's because you havant found a good story to read. What makes a great comic it's not even the art. It's story. Then you'll be able to actually enjoy it

      I dont agree. Ever read the awesome stories about jewish New York by Will Eisner or Crumbs Kafka ??? So, no, thats simply not true...they are fun to read , naturally the suerheroe stuff is often boring, but who wants to draw lifelong the same stuff , even if should pay the bills?
