I’m not really sure which category im supposed to post this but I’m just posting it here since it’s seems like it would be best. I’m still kinda new to the proko thing and haven’t been active as much and I was wondering, which category or where do we post our work that we want general critique on? For this piece, I’m trying to go for a manga/comic like art style and I’m trying to improve on ink wash since it’s the medium I’ll be using.

How to become a better actor, so I can become a better animator
So I was told to become a good animator you must become a good actor and I guess how do I go about doing acting if that makes any sense? Do I study Shakespeare or something?

Getting Started in Comics
Hi, I am a writer and artist looking to restore my motivation by diving into a project that combines both skills. I also hope to create something deeply inspired by my faith. Originally, I wanted to work in the animation industry, but I realized that the stories I want to tell wouldn’t fit into its restrictions. Animation is too regulated to allow for the kinds of narratives I envision. If I want to see my stories brought to life in animation someday, I believe a graphic novel could serve as a strong proof of concept. Here’s my pitch: In the year 2000, with Jews nearly extinct and the last survivors displayed in human zoos resembling shtetl for public amusement, one captive sparks a spiritual revolution that defies a world bereft of faith. Currently, I’m taking the Marvel course on the Proko platform. While I don’t plan to adopt a Marvel art style, the fundamentals I’m learning will transfer well to my project. Here’s what I’m working with: • Equipment: iPad Mini, Wacom Intuos, MacBook Air, comic markers, Staedtler colored pencils, pencils, and oil pastels. • Favorite mediums: Oil pastels and Copic markers (though Copics are expensive, and oil pastels are unconventional for comics). • Time constraints: As a full-time college student, I can’t color everything. I’m thinking about a style where most of the world is black and white except for the Jewish characters, with more color integrated as the story progresses. For publishing, I’m unsure about the best platform. Webtoon is too NSFW for a young adult or kids’ series, and I want to make it accessible to more religious Jewish communities, whose parents often limit screen time. While I’d like to reach a non-Jewish audience, I know my core readers will likely be Jewish. I need a way to distribute the graphic novel that’s both affordable and accessible. Some people I’ve shown my ideas to really like them. What’s the first step to getting started? How should I proceed from here? I’ve also uploaded some sketches and drawings to show my art style. I’d love to hear your thoughts on which style you think works best for my project. Don’t worry about fundamentals—just focus on the artistic style, as some of the pieces are older, like the black-and-white and digital animal portraits.

Night Guard
I've done a few satirical Batman comics with a buddy of mine. We have come up with a character that's not Batman, but close enough to a Mad Magazine take on the character so that the jokes work. Here are a couple of sketches of the character, called the Night Guard.

Some of my comic pages
In order to learn drawing comics and develop a style 2 years ago I decided to cooperate with a screenwriter on a full graphic novel (100 pages). 3/4 is done and I see some progress - lines are more confident and i simplify face expressions more, also it begins to feel like fun to draw (at the beginning it was nothing but struggle). I cannot show this work, however here are samples of pages from some short personal comics (finished while working on a main project). My goal is to draw in a kind of minimalistic style. Began with realism (attached black and white pages) and I was inspired by Magnus (he drew for Max Bunker) The colored work shows the direction I try to go into. In my opinion it is still not enough stylized yet, sometimes a bit cartoony, but in other pages to much real. I like John Romita and his thick lines, and he was one of my inspirations for drawing these. I don't know if this way of progressing by just drawing is enough, maybe i should need to do some fundamentals course again, for example to break characters into primitives. Really don't know right know. Any advice would be helpful :) Here is another post with my sketches to show my life drawing https://www.proko.com/community/topics/sketching-critique

On Demand Comics
It's been a while since I've done on-demand comics, but recently I had a few comics printed of my rough draft story. I like to letter my roughs so that I can get a good idea if the story of is working or not. It's easier to make changes at this stage when I've only spent an hour or two on a page. At this stage, I'm looking to see how it fits together, make edits, and see what I want to change before the polished draft. I'm not associated with them in any way, but I have to say that the service at Ka-blam is pretty great. There are no minimums, and it was pretty easy to follow the templates and instructions to get them the files. I'm not sure what other companies are out there, but on-demand is a good way to get your book into print.
