Among other subjects we could talk about:-

  • Lighting
  • Scripting
  • Workflows
  • Panel design
  • Layout
  • Speech bubbles
  • Inking
  • Where to sell or distribute comics

During this webinar session I would like to encourage you to:-

  • Show some of your current comic book artwork to the group. Tell us about what inspired you for your work.
  • Share a current challenge that you have in the creation of comic book artwork.
  • Share at least one tip or solution that could help other artists

It’s not mandatory to do the above, if you’d rather just hang with other digital artists in the room and meet like minded creatives, you’re welcome to do this as well!

You’ll have the option to share your desktop in our webinar, so you can talk about your content or artwork in this way. This will be the easiest way to share your work.

You can register free to enter the webinar (standard registration), though if you’d like to have the webinar HD quality recording then use the premium registration.

This webinar is driven by YOU, the artist! The more artists that share a challenge or tip, then the more value that can be gained by other artists.
