Watching how animation "fans" on Twitterdotcom engage with animation is wild like do people even actually like animation and cartoons or do they just like feeling superior as they point out their subjective gripes? It's the most miserable way to engage with something you supposedly enjoy

I feel like no one ever talks about Angelic Layer when talking about CLAMP series' but it's girls, robot dolls, and wrestling. What's more to love?

Nooo come back you were hotter when you were a psychopath #deathnote

I think they hit it off!

He's the world's greatest detective he knows what he's doing #llawliet #deathnote

This looks a-ma-zing!

NY bbies! We've got four gorgeous comics in-progress to workshop from @minacoleta.bsky.social @skullingway.bsky.social @kjmartinet.bsky.social and @laurenschmidt.bsky.social at the Crit Crew this week on Thursday! Come on by!! luma.com/r0j5bumv

Might be figuring out how I'm rendering this comic

Rewatching Death Note for the first time since high school and it is very fun

Rough day? #wip #inking

Shoutout once again to the single video that started Yuna & Kawachan

🏍️

Sometimes I forget I find inking is so satisfying #wip

Last expression sheet! Gotta sketch some vehicle designs and then gonna start working on pages

Yukino Miyazawa - Model Student, Queen of Vanity Sometimes a good ol' 90s anime is just the vibes I'm looking for

More expression design-work on some side characters. These were pretty fun! I really like how they turned out. I just need to do a little bit more with the two lead characters and some vehicle and bg designs and I think in March I'll be starting pencils on pages :000

Some character exploration with expressions

Some character design exercises for my project. A bunch of biker goons! Will most likely need to simplify their details/overall style but it was fun trying to get a feel for them first

Trying very hard to like My Hero Academia but all the villains are like "society is corrupt and bad and ruined my life therefore it must be destroyed" but when they tell you their backstory it just proves that they 100% ruined their own life and never self reflected once

Truly this company just keeps showing how little it cares about it's user-base. I dropped Adobe when the AI stuff was coming out but I always hoped they'd get it together. Seems they still do not care for the creators who pay to use their programs. It's just hit after hit of untrustworthiness

Some prop design exploration from today

Comic thumbnails are DONE

More WIP comic panels

The past 3 years working on a series with vehicles is coming in clutch for drawing rn thank you, Pupstruction

Hi again, #portfolioday! I'm a storyboard and comic artist based in Brooklyn, NY with 10+ years in animation. Previously at Titmouse as a storyboard rev, now looking for work in animation, comics, or illustration. I'm also done a lot of commercial work and produced an original comic for Webtoon!

A lot of us have actually made a webcomic ring called Chimera Comics after we left hiveworks: chimeracomics.org This isn't the full list as some artists want their hands completely washed of the situation, but this is a start!

Second pass of thumbnails aka actually drawing them digitally instead of just in a sketchbook is going well. I forgot how much I love this loosey goosey stage

A very "first pass" design for characters for my personal project comic. Think "southwest Route 66 fantasy". They just need a lot of cleaning up and probably some simplification in their style so I don't die finishing this project

I just need to finish typing up the second draft of my comic script and then I'm mentally checking out for the rest of the year @_@

A very American Girl holiday! Finishing off the year with my comfort girls since it's been a while

Do you all know about my AdorkaStock 16th Anniversary 100 Pose PNG Pack? It's free on Ko-fi and includes 100 pose references broken into 7 categories: jump, kneel, lying, sit chair, sit floor, sit stool, and stand. ➡️ ko-fi.com/s/307a9079e6 TY so much for the years of support. 🥰 Happy drawing!

Sometimes you start drawing no problem, and other times you have to force yourself over the hump to realise for upteenth time that you do in fact love drawing

First draft thumbnails and script done for my side project comic that I want to do that was supposed to be a for fun lil short story. It's 108 pages jesus christmas

Just got back from visiting family for Thanksgiving now let's get back into a creative routine (immediately gets a migraine day)

First draft thumbnails/script are 66 pages in and not finished yet. "Make a simple comic project," I said. "Do something simple," I told myself

Trying for the life of me to work on a personal comic to the end. We're thumbnailing babyyyyy

Happy Halloween!

(1/2) I've been illustrating the girls from House (1977) with limited palettes because the iconography in that film is very fun and it is spooky season after all. Enjoy some doomed teens!

(2/2) Last batch of House (1977) girls! These were really fun to work on

When your friends are running late for your late-night diner meet-up

Inking trees is so relaxing #WIP

Sending out any job inquiry email is like

Trick or Treat! I'm hoping to draw one more drawing of these kids before the spooky season ends

#WIP Another one with these guys

Costumes for the kids

Up to their lil tricks #halloween

Happy #portfolioday! I'm a storyboard and comic artist currently looking for work. I was also a Webtoon Original creator with the series "Yuna & Kawachan." I also enjoy character design and illustration! www.laurenschmidtanimation.com
