For those who think this doesn’t happen, it does. Here is my latest review for Relentless Blades. I’m not thin skinned and am open to an honest critique of my work, but that’s not what this is. This account is linked to a group notorious for review bombing.
Retaliatory low ratings between indie authors is a horrible look for the community. #vaguebooking.

Dear friends, during some recent medical examinations, the doctors found a small, localized nodule in my lung. It was detected at a very early stage and is well-localized. The doctors believe that it is best to intervene, so, following their advice, I have decided to undergo surgery to remove it. The operation is already scheduled to take place in the coming days. I thank you for your spiritual closeness and entrust myself to your prayers.

Why did the "GOLDEN BOY" manga end that way? It's hard to answer this without looking back and seeing its evolution in Super JUMP magazine. This thread aims to give context to that controversial and unexpected ending. [1/14]

高屋先生の件は残念です…。 ガイバー展で生原稿見ましたが、アレ全部アナログの手描きなんですよね。あのクオリティの連載を出来る後継者が居ないだろうから、このまま終了なのかな…。 これからも応援は続けていきます。 #ガイバー

Yoshiki Takaya made a sad announcement by way of the new release of Guyver 2: Dark Hero, he’s suffered a cerebral infarction that paralyzed his right side, this has essentially forced him to retire from manga, putting an end to Guyver, thank you for everything Takaya.

The artwork of Choujikuu Yousai Macross 2036 by Haruhiko Mikimoto used for advertising the #NEC #PCEngine CD release in Japan. Removed text/logos/seam in the middle of the image, applying the usual clean/retouch process without upscaling.

Digital is easier because…You can draw small. Super scribbly. And you can easily lighten it, add another layer to detail out the structure. And off top of that, you can flip an image, increase or decrease size, move pieces around to fit a composition better. It’s great! When doing the layout traditionally there is the same amount of freedom but it takes a LOT more erasing and scarring the paper and redrawing completely, so it takes much more time and work.
Replying to @RyanOttley
Seeing stuff like this is so interesting, I see so many really skilled artists prefer digital for layout and rough sketches and traditional for more complete/detailed end result. I wonder what part of digital is so good for rough draft stuff 🤔
