I tend to hate talking about myself but you guys need to know me better to know if the 90-Day Comic Creator course is the right fit for you so here we go... I'm 35 and here's my accomplishments: • 123k TikTok followers in 5 months creating educational art content • 1.6k people in this awesome community since August where I share free courses, content, resources, and feedback whenever asked • Professor at a Nashville-based private art college where students asked the school to add MORE of my classes (it’s cool seeing that on almost every student survey at the end of each quarter not gonna lie) • Created a walkthrough comic book exhibit for the Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky, as well as a comic for an exhibit in the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola, Florida • Designed characters, created panel layout, drew all thumbnails, pencils, inks, colors, lettering and finally published multiple comic issues with other authors including Meredith Finch (I fanboyed hard working with her and her husband David Finch. Legends.) • Now developing my own comic series that people message me wanting to purchase • People messaging me for commission work that I have to turn down because I'm too busy focusing on Skool, my students, and contract work Next up: Helping 20 comic artists create and publish their first issue in 90 days.

❌ STOP watching YouTube tutorials
Most comic artists are trying to learn from YouTube or art courses that teach you HOW to draw but never teach you how to FINISH and PUBLISH a complete story. The problem with this is you end up with scattered skills but no actual finished work. You learn panel composition one day, character design the next, but you never connect the dots into a complete comic issue. This leads to years of "learning" with nothing to show for it. No comic in your hands. No story pitched to publishers. Just endless tutorials and half-finished sketches collecting dust. After teaching at a private art college where students specifically requested MORE of my classes, and publishing multiple comic issues professionally, here's what I'd do instead. The 90-Day Comic System This is because it gives you the COMPLETE roadmap—from the ideas in your head to a finished issue you can hold, pitch to publishers, or launch on Kickstarter. Not just drawing skills. The full storytelling structure, accountability, and step-by-step process to actually FINISH. Which leads to published work, confidence to create more, and the skills to eventually get paid for your art. Now, comic artists, you can think about it like this… Are you trying to collect more art tips and stay stuck in tutorial limbo? Or are you trying to hold your first published comic issue in your hands?

You got me hyped
Hi
This one is a little bit more rushed but i wanted to share it anyways, do you like the idea and how it looks? Btw the character throwing the kick is the same of the last drawing.
Hi
Hey everyone
This is a viltrumite character i imagined today if you notice the growths and the cylindrical rods (i think they are harder to spot) that go inside his shoulder and poke through on his right shoulder, it's because the character is inspired on someone i know who has a totally f*d up shoulder himself. I am pretty happy with how it came out and enjoyed the process a lot, but i am sure there is lots of room for improvement still, so let me know what you guys would change to make it better and i will try to learn something from it 🫡.

@N. Colin Dyer thank you very much, it totally makes sense
Helpful Criticism and Critique Wanted.
I need suggestions on how/why the sketch shifted more to the feminine, and what are the main characteristics that tend to shift an image more one way than the other?

Not an expert on portraits, but i think you made his forehead and his chin a bit smaller than they actually are, those traits can really affect how masculine or femminine a character looks.
