Micro comic Summer is back!

Here's my tiny tale from last year, of some kiddos finding a hurt baby dragon, and taking care of it until the dragons return next spring.

#art #comic #webcomics #dragons #fantasy creatures #microcomicsummer #ty hiveworks for a cool little event #but yeah as i mentioned yesterday: #i didn't make a new comic this year just because I had two other big comic projects #a third (even just 4 pages) would've been too much for me i think #been wanting some time to focus on illustrations #so just celebrating by posting my comic from last year--- which i actually haven't even posted here on tumblr yet #hope u enjoy ty for reading <3 #micro comic summer #dragon #fantasy art #dragon comic

Well. This is a pretty randomly made comic. I was staying at my friend's place (your typical easter European block-building neighborhood) And I woke up early, having nothing to do, just staring at a single tree between the block buildings. So somehow I randomly made two two-page comics about this tree (pages 2-3). Then few months later I had an idea for ending and beginning.

"Princess Goldfish", a 4 page fairytale for Micro-Comic Summer by @amrynth and myself!

This comic, y'all. I haven't finished a comic page in months but the script my wife wrote for this was so cute it summoned me out of my hermit cave and demanded I draw it just so it could exist in the world.

Enjoy!

Micro Comic Summer - A Summary

August 2023

Last year in 2022, Hiveworks introduced the art challenge Micro Comic Summer as a tag on Twitter. Creators took to the challenge and produced four page comics that were shared on the final day of August. This year, we’re encouraging more creators to participate in the challenge. Want to know how? Read on.

Micro Comic Summer is one of many online art challenges that bring creators together to complete a project and share their work with their community. Other well known examples of art challenges include Hourly Comic Day, where artists draw a comic panel for every hour of their day on February 1, and Inktober, a 31 day challenge in the month of October to ink a new illustration every day. While these challenges have artists flexing their endurance and speed, Micro Comic Summer takes a different approach: slow, experimental, sustainable creation.

Very frequently, comic artists face unsustainable working conditions, as many are the sole creator behind projects that require multiple skill sets (such as writing, penciling, inking, flatting, lettering, and so on), often on top of day jobs.

The rules of Micro Comic Summer take into consideration the working conditions of comic creators, particularly in fast paced environments like social media, and attempts to buck the norm.

The rules of Micro Comic Summer are as follows:

Rule 1- Tell a story in four pages. This rule is possibly the most challenging aspect: to be succinct and efficient with your page count. Some creators have used this challenge as an opportunity to redraw old webcomic pages or introduce new readers to their pre-existing characters and story. What story you tell is completely up to you, but the four page maximum is in place to prevent overexertion.

Rule 2 - You have all summer (or winter, for the southern hemisphere) to do it. From June to the end of August, take your time to perfect your paneling, edit your story, and choose your palette thoughtfully. There is no need to make snap decisions or cut corners for this challenge. The timeframe is meant to encourage exploration and growth.

Rule 3 - Share it online. Use the tag #MicroComicSummer to share your work with others on August 31. Contribute to the conversation around comic artist working conditions.

While Hiveworks introduced Micro Comic Summer, anyone is free to participate. Participation in the tag does not mean you’re submitting your work to us, nor does it mean we own it. It’s just a hashtag, for fun :) 

We can’t wait to see what you come up with!

So, I wanted to do something for @hiveworks Micro Comic Summer and I thought it’d be fun to do a oneshot set in my Furry OC Universe :3c This was so much fun and it made me want to make more comics!

Also on AO3!

Happy Micro Comic Summer everyone! i've been hard at work prepping the next style test / mini comic for Mind or Matter, and got it done on time to release as part of the challenge! This is the backstory of Jo and Casimir Lena, a tale of hubris, poor communication, and grief. In the comic proper during the first art we're gonna delve deep into the fallout of these events, but for now, here's a little sneak peek of what's to come, as well as a style exploration of some of the more artistic-y choices I intend to make with the comic proper!

Currently I'm shooting for late fall/early winter as the launch date for comic, so be sure to follow for more updates on pre-production if you liked this mini-comic, because i'm SUPER excited to get started with the full thing, and right here on this tumblr blog is the current best place to follow to keep up with the comic!

Draft Proposal

Originally planned for last year's Micro Comic Summer, their relationship is rather more philosophical in some aspects.

Micro Comic Summer!

It's finally here! I finished my comic at the end of last month and I'm excited to finally share it! This was my first time doing the art for a comic, and while I've still got a long way to go I learned a lot doing this project and I am very happy with the result.

I hope to do more strips of these two in the future, but for now, enjoy!
