A little play on words about the study and practice of art.

Know of some art related tutorial or link that we should all know about? Email me and I'll create an entry here.

This page will provide links to all the best art tutorials and discussions of methods I can find (or you can suggest.) Many times we artists can spend quite a while hunting down a good technique or information reference. When I discover a good one, you'll find it here.

Promote Your Webcomic

All webcomic artists want to promote their work. That's a given. What we have been lacking is an online place to learn how to promote. How much should you spend on advertising? What else can you do to get a bigger audience? What resources exist for us to take advantage of?

It's new, but there is now such a place. Its' mission is to collect all these resources together so we can all benefit. So, go. Check out how to promote your webcomic and then suggest a resource in the appropriate heading.

Lord of the Trees
Things may have finally just gotten better.

Well, of course, the boys are in full scale retreat and Dark Jay has declared himself Lord of the Trees. None of that is good, per se.

The good part is that DJ is finally done monologing.

Madscott

by S.R. Gallatin



Madscott starts out as black and white line drawings but switches over to color in early 2008. A month later it switches back and for a good reason. Even though it looks good, the artist doesn't want to rely on color to carry the comic. The line drawings are not especially detailed but that's not the charm of the strip. I'll come back to that after I talk about some of the details that support it. See the rest of the review right here.
