I draw comics, and I'm interested in grinding all kinds of art skills. I'd like to reach pro level someday!

I'm not sure what type of comics you'd like to ultimately make, but have you thought about creating one page comics, like 4 panels or so? I think it would force you to condense your ideas into a really short span, while also not making you put forth a ton of effort -- you could easily throw away the end product if you didn't like it.

I'm not a working parent, but I do think I see my best results when I practice/apply new skills every day. I think it's really helpful to try and put lessons into practice immediately, rather than try and remember them the next day while practicing separately. YMMV, though, glad you're enjoying it!

Hi there, here is my assignment. First time picking stuff from my mind and putting on a paper (I only use references and build from that normally), the thumbnail takes a lot of the fear off, cause I don't have to invest to much in it. I did the assignment on a sketchbook I have, don't know if it is a problem. I'm really liking the course!!

I really like these! A bunch of different body types and facial expressions, and they each have a different character. The floating guy looks real creepy, I wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley :)

Hello guys, this is my ideation for the Harvestman, or the Pumkinhead. Had a lot of fun coming up with these, looking forward to the rest of the course!

I think it's cool how you came up with the harvestman opening up its head, my favorite is definitely the guy with all the tools hanging off of him! Makes him look kinda like he has wings, or he's hanging.

An update on my last attempt. This time, I focused more specifically on one theme (mushrooms, especially stinkhorns) and pushed harder to make each idea more distinct. Really tried to lean into the idea of asking more questions and trying to figure out what it was I liked about certain elements, and I think that really helped improve compared to my first pages :)

I have some friends who are really into 40k, I've only played a game or two. But I think the oversized shoulder armor, skull decal, etc. definitely says warhammer! You could look up Karl Kopinski for some rad 40k inspiration as well :)

Did someone say Kopinski!!! Just got his book "The Big Kopinski", freaking rad.

If this fellow is anything like your grandfather, he looks like a cool dude with a lot of stories!
Ernesto Vázquez-Belén
Yeah, that's the vibe that I was going for 😀
@sable40k
Oh, what a cutie! Hmmm.... I think maybe his stomach area? His stomach and his back have the same round rhythmic arc, which somehow makes him look a little bendy and softer. I think if you gave him more of an armored look like you see on some rhino sides, he'd look even more tough :)

I agree Good observation @galacticnine thank you! 🦏🦏🦏
@sable40k
Man, this is quite challenging; I'm realizing how little I know about farms or harvests! However, here is what I have so far. I will continue trying to pull more ideas out of my brain...

A few more, this time I went back to the video and tried to keep them smaller and simpler!

All though Watchmen was made by a big name (DC) the team that made it was very small. The colours are very bright and "neony", but my favourite moments is when there is a tension moment or action where everything has an unatural red tone, adding to the feel of unstableness and danger.

Now that you mention it, the colors were pretty flashy at times...though I've never read the comic all the way through. Thank you for the rec :)
