Tutorial: Making a GREAT Paper texture in Clip Studio Paint (Manga Studio 5)

Texture overlay on the left. Flat color on the right. So you've made a great illustration in Clip Studio Paint or Photoshop. Your line work (if you're a line artist) is the way you want it, you have an eye catching color palette, your composition is dynamic, but there's something about it that still feels just a little off. It feels a little too, well, "digital". If you do artwork digitally, or color scans of your traditional art and digitally color them, you may have run into this. Working digitally is fantastic for so many reasons but it can sometimes result in your art lacking the tooth of traditional artwork. There are of course a variety of ways to remedy this.

"Father Mckenzie writing the words to a sermon that no one will hear"

This was another "personal portfolio piece" like the Spider-Man one. My teacher would give us these every three weeks of the second semester to give us a bit more creative freedom. The prompt for this one was Eleanor Rigby, which meant we could use anything related to the Beatles, or this particular song as long as it in someway related back to Eleanor Rigby.

I knew I wanted to use ink but that was about it. I eventually decided to illustrate the line Father Mckenzie, writing the words to a sermon that no one will hear... After which I did 4 thumbnail sketches, moved directly into final sketches and then immediately transferred the sketch to bristol board and began inking. This all only took several hours and I thought I'd be able to finish the whole thing at a reasonable hour and go to bed. Man was I wrong. I s...

PROFESSOR NIMBAL - A New Comic Exploring Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

Well the day is here! I've been working on this comic over the last few months and I'm so excited to finally share it. Professor Nimbal: Explorations in Crohn's and Colitis follows Professor Nimbal as he guides Avi and Addy on an exciting journey through Avi’s intestines in order to help them learn about Inflammatory Bowel Disease! The comic was written by David Suskind M.D. A pediatric gastroenterologist from Seattle Children’s Hospital and the University of Washington ; with art and letters from me! Professor Nimbal is a comic we produced to help educate IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) patients about the condition in a fun and easily digestible way (no pun intended). Dr. Suskind is an expert in nutrition and intestinal disorders, and has focused his energy on the clinical care, research and advocacy for patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. If you want to know more about his work you can check out www.nimbal.org . ...
