I strongly believe that your comic's characters should be ugly sometimes. Make them hot, ofc but like, an ugly crier 😌 Make them ugly scream. Ugly is kinda pretty in a story telling sense.

I can't wait for the Netflix docuseries on this whole Bricks and Minifigs scandal

Feels good to see people leading studios and teams and willing to openly push back against genAI, refreshing compared to the big name directors who dive right in long as they get a healthy pay day.

Time for a new pinned post - I’m Skylar Patridge, comic artist & illustrator. Taking cover work for 2026 💫 skylarpatridge.com

Mr Miracle and Orion!!

"whatever, everyone already uses it anyway so it's fine" is just not really the message a sorry person promotes. I'm frustrated by how everyone just gave him the benefit of the doubt. I'm not feeling very forgiving when this is the messaging. I don't think I'm being unreasonable either

Reminder that I also draw shields! Like the weapons, they are a flat $50! If you would like me to draw you a shield, please let me know!

I've been using the same Kyle Webster brush pack for the last 15 years, and really only use one brush each year

Ok hive mind! Help me pay an artist! 💰💸🤑 I’m looking for an established fiction developmental editor. Ideally, someone familiar with campy urban fantasy. The project is ~50k words, and I’m happy to pay by word or hour at a competitive rates. Thanks 🤓

I'm retouching strips for Hogan's Alley #25. A friend suggested I use AI to restore the work. I said no, but I was curious to see what it would do, so I sent him a sample. The top is the restored source material, and the bottom is the AI "restoration." And that, dear reader, is why I don't use AI.

QTP with a robot that's not Star Wars or Transformers I've been talking to the man in charge of the tabletop rpg QUEST, (which this illo belongs to) and the sci-fi edition is almost getting kinda close to reality 🙌

Quite literally the best piece of advice you will ever get about comics, aside from marrying someone wealthy

"So what's your take?" "I think we should fuckin brain him" "Oh totally agree"

Robocops. I always debate when pricing commissions whether I should offer a Robocop-only price that is 30% cheaper, so I’d get to draw more Robocops (but now that I think about it, it should just be for a dollar)(secret convention commission?)(you just have to know to ask?).

Fine, I’ll do it 😤 www.thepopverse.com/comics-dan-b...

I've been listening to essays by HORSES lately and he had such a brutal, poetic description of a guy: I will never forget Otis because of the way he looked. He was like a summer which had skipped the beauty of fall and the celebration of Christmas and had run right into a cold, dark January.

in indie comics, first you make the single issues, then you make the trades, then you lose slightly less money

in 2016 I made a comic titled “Mr. Gotcha” that would become most viewed and circulated image I’d create. Now it is the subject of a book by @glennf.com examining its history in online discourse. That One Matt Bors comic is live on Kickstarter—back it here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gle...

FINISHED the art for Partisan. Onto lettering and then DONE!

Call me old fashioned, But i think having a ton of fake followers sucks big time

Happy #webcomicday My husband and I make Crown & Anchor, a sci-fantasy adventure! When a pair of bumbling pirates encounter an infamous Pirate Lord, he offers them a bounty; the reward being a Divine Token. As they uncover more about the mystical relic, everything becomes complicated... and deadly.
