Facial Proportions For Cartooning

Great cartooning advice from Peter Emslie about facial proportions focusing on three factors for drawing features (eyes, nose, mouth, etc.):

1. Relative Placement
2. Size
3. Specific Shape

Enjoy!

Naivi The Sorceress

I made this illustration for COMCOM's Sorcerers, Magician, and Wizards Art Jam.  I wanted to convey the feeling of an 80's cartoon.  While I was drawing her, this character kept morphing from good to evil and back to good again.  I would say the finished character is definitely one of the good guys.  What do you think of Naivi? What would you say is her story?

Hice esta ilustración para el Art Jam de COMCOM con el tema de Hechiceros, Magos, y Brujos.  Quería expresar la sensación de una caricatura de los ochenta.  Cuando la estaba dibujando, este personaje se transformaba de buena a mala y otra vez a buena.  Yo diría que, definitivamente, el personaje final es una de los buenos.  ¿Qué les parece Naivi? ¿Cuál dirían que es su historia?

Some Thoughts on "Nerdmigos: What A Lovely Tea Party"

"What A Lovely Tea Party" is the latest installment of Nerdmigos webcomic!

It was written by Edgar Allen Joe.  This is the first time I have ever worked with a guest writer on "Nerdmigos" and it was a very fun process. 

My original idea for "Nerdmigos" was to make it an anthology series where there are no main characters (any character can take center stage) and where I could collaborate with other artists or writers. The collaboration part of that idea never took off, so I have made the comics on my own. So, that's why I'm very happy about this collaboration. I hope it's the first of many!

So, about this installment's story, I just want to be clear on one thing: Having some characters exit "Nerdmigos" does not mean the end of the series. "Nerdmigos" is not about the adventures of a few characters. "Nerdmigos" is and has always been about friendship (from the best of friends to the shittiest of friends), mixed with silly geeky stuff. I make "Nerdmigos" comics every now and then because it's fun and because it has been an incredible learning experience for me. That’s the only reason why I’ll keep making them until I have no more stories to tell in the "Nerdmigos" universe.

I am really excited for what's to come, not only in "Nerdmigos" but in other projects.

Cheers and thank you for your support! I really appreciate it!
