I can't paint but my teach assumed I could cause I'm an "artist" so here's what she gets for insisting I do this extra credit project for the hanging garden. (Same teacher who asked me to win that costume contest for Halloween. Only difference is I'm an experienced cosplayer not an experienced painter.) Literally no one who sees this thing is gonna even understand the reference so I hope you guys appreciate the effort at least. Someone remind me to NEVER paint on a round clear surface EVER AGAIN. At least I'm getting a post out of this.

My friend dragged me to this college presentation (that I had no interest in) during lunch & doodling was the only way I could keep my ADD brain occupied since I couldn't do work. It's not the best cause I only had a pen but it came out better than I expected.

Some things I’ve taught myself through out the years. I have not gone to college for art or comics, these are things I’ve learned by just trying to make comics by myself.

Hey kids! If you’re a filmmaker, animator, or storyboard artist and you don’t know what screen direction is, you might want to read this.
For the record, there are always exceptions to the rule in filmmaking, which is why I pointed out 3 examples here.
I’ve also found that comic books tend to NOT take screen direction as seriously as film does, but I’m still on the fence if this is wise or not. My favorite comics pay close attention to screen direction so as to not confuse the reader.
Good luck!
