Prologue
Hi all,
I managed to finish Page 7 just today on New Year's Eve. I really wanted to finish the Prologue in 2013 - Mission Accomplished! And still with plenty of time to prepare for New Years Festivities tonight!
I hope you're all having a wonderful Holiday Season and have a very Happy New Year
This New Year is more important me than in other years since 2013 is one of the most brutal I've had in my whole life, no lie. The Mavia Comic became a lifeline rather than a fun project. May 2014 be infinitely better than its predecessor whether you had a rough year or a great year, and no matter how your 2013 went, leave it in 2013 and press forward with gusto!
Be Safe and Sound as the Ball drops.
-Michelle
What's Next for Mavia
Chapter 2 is a wrap! Here are my personal Takeaways I want to bear in mind from Chapter 2. Achievements: Kept a (mostly) consistent schedule Drew several different inorganic environments Used different software Needs Improvement: Facial consistency (messyyyyyyy rn) SPEED - one page a month is still too slow Pacing is something I’ve improved on, but something I really need to watch out for I’m going to go on a little break to get a head start on Chapter 3. My plan for right now is to experiment on making faster comic pages. I feel like webcomics HAVE to be one page a week, and the way I work right now, I can’t manage that yet. My Chp2 pages are already so much sloppier than a regular illustration (”perfect is the enemy of done,” “comics will be only 60% of your best,” etc.), but I would still prefer they not look…dreadful. XP I’m going to experiment during the break, maybe with different coloring techniques, or maybe switch to only greyscale. Maybe my pacing problem
Inktober 2019
I'm doing Inktober this year, going off the prompts with the theme of "Batman."
I'm threading them all on twitter: https://twitter.com/maviacomic/status/1179628006945411072
And they're here on my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/maviacomic/
Once the month ends and I catch up on them all, I'll either make a giant sketch dump or just post my favs here like last year.
Happy inking, Participating Folks!

Inktober 2018
Hi All,
I've been doing Inktober over on twitter and instagram!
The prompts for Inktober this year are here: https://inktober.com/rules/ , and I'm sticking with a theme of Witches!
I'm taking this year as an opportunity to practice hatching (in addition to, you know, ink).
Happy drawing, everyone!
