SILVER & IRON: Part One Ashley Lovell is a hopeful young werewolf who thinks he may have finally met a vampire willing to cooperate with him to eradicate a supernatural disease - only for both men to learn firsthand that your day can always get worse. 40+ pages, all in this thread πŸ§΅πŸŒ™ #Silver&Iron

Happy Werewolf Wednesday (just)! Have this week's #Silver&Iron update an hour earlier than normal so I can tuck myself into bed. Here is also your reminder that Clemence is absolutely massive, he's just only ever been standing around werewolf-sized furniture til now:

This panel from part 5 is so small (and not really important) that it probably won't even be legible in the actual chapter so here it is as a little sneak-peek WIP lmao #Silver&Iron

Maddoc is one of those guys who texts like he's actively under attack and you need to call him back in the next thirty seconds or the building will explode but really he just wants to know what you need from Costco

we should all be pissed off at this btw. if not because sex work is legitimate work and should be treated with respect, then because you should be concerned at attempts to gentrify online spaces as pretext to court investors and force out minorities so those spaces can become part of a portfolio.

It's Werewolf Wednesday! Time to see what Heliotrope and Sorrel are up to in this week's #Silver&Iron! She might be a little confused about being a writer, but she's got the spirit πŸ“š

I'll never quite understand people who use ComicFury for stuff that isn't comics. Tumblr is right there

View full thread

like if you want a LITTLE bit of visibility but not so much that you might go viral and you want all your stuff available in one place and you want the ability to customise your site page and add additional permanent pages and you need it to be free... that is literally Tumblr

It is kind of equal parts endearing and sad though to see how desperate kids these days are for any kind of online space/forum where they can express themselves without the hyper-visibility and scrutiny of socmed like TikTok, because some of them are using CF to essentially reinvent image boards

I'll never quite understand people who use ComicFury for stuff that isn't comics. Tumblr is right there

Normally I would say "live and let live" but CF is just hosted by one dude who is fronting all the bills for hosting, and the site TOU do explicitly say "hey this site isn't really for art dumps or stuff that isn't comics" so I kind of do think it's a bittt of a dick move, esp if you're not a kid

Students made their first minicomics in my intro making course - mostly standard format but this student, a first time maker(!), did something so off the charts I’m still reeling from it! & he made like 12 of them for his classmates! A paper engineering feat of flipbookery as well as killer drawing!

Oh, thanks for the heads up! It wasn't my personal page thankfully (mortifying) but it WAS the old url from before I decided to make my "OC blog" a strictly Silver & Iron blog and make a new OC blog with the old URL. But that's a good sign to make it easier to find Silver & Iron from that URL too

(To be honest straw anon I don't even know if you follow me here, but since you can be anon on both Tumblr and ComicFury but not here I figured it was my best bet and wanted to say thanks, I appreciate it πŸ‘)

We get a glimpse at Heliotrope's (former) bedroom in this week's #Silver&Iron update! What would you take with you, if you had to start all over again...? #OCsky

LRP I draw pretty quickly and have been maintaining a page production pace that industry professionals have mentioned is a little faster than average and even I don't make two full pages a day. Huh. I think if you don't leave yourself any time to pause and reflect your comic and art suffers for it

If you're forcing yourself to make two fully inked full colour pages every day then when are you doing studies? When are you exploring ideas that don't work out but taught you a lot? When are you pausing to go "this isn't it, I can do better" and scrapping a 75% finished page (for good reason)?

I dunno man sometimes I see people who just seem scared of how nebulous art is so they try to find any metric they can to be able to say they're "doing it right", so they'll really hone in on the idea of productivity above all and sometimes. yeah you can tell they prioritise productivity over growth

Honestly I'd like to add you shouldn't even be following INDUSTRY standards unless you're IN the industry with a deadline that requires it. Nor pushing yourself to go above & beyond it. Set yourself w/ guidelines that suit you and account for REST, injury, holiday, and family/friends.

Matthew Dow Smith@matthewdowsmith.bsky.social

For the love of Kirby please do not listen to anyone who says you should be doing two finished pages of comic book art a day. It is a recipe for burnout, misery, and eventually, the destruction of your career. Industry standard is one a day, five a week. Period. Got it?

Comic tip for artists who struggle with layouts or making each page not so same-y: be less literal about where your characters are sometimes. Become more artsy with emotions they feel or information they share, you don't need them standing in the same room/position like a scene from a movie

Hi y'all, Recently we found out that my brother has a heart condition and will require extensive care. To cover some of the costs I'm running fundraiser by taking up commissions. Most tiers are affordable so people get some good art while helping us out. Plus a $1000 for those who can spare more.πŸ’œπŸ’œ
