Whenever I sit down to draw, one of the first things I do is pick the Podcast or Audio Book I’m going to listen to! I mean is there any better way to passively soak up knowledge?

So as I was brainstorming new ways to give value to the How To Draw Comics Community, I figured starting a Podcast might be one of the best new learning resources we could create for you.

Tune in for new episodes every Monday where we’ll be discussing a range of topics surrounding the career, lifestyle, challenges, mindset and hero’s journey of the aspiring Comic Book Artist.

    Do you ever find yourself laying down lines on a fresh page wondering why the heck nothing's working out the way you want it too?

    You know you're better than this. You've got the skills. So what gives? Why are your characters just not looking right? Their poses feel unimaginative, anatomy falls flat, and overall you're just feeling more uninspired the further you get into it.

    Why's this happening? Well, it's because you need to properly boot up the drawing system, kick yourself into gear and submit to the 'zone'.

    In this episode of the How to Draw Comics. NET Podcast I talk about the series of steps I go through to find my drawing rhythm. To make sure I wind out with the most ideal, drawn representation of my idea I can come up with.

    If you're feeling like your drawings could do with a little boost, the tips I'll be sharing here tonight might help you out.

    The AI Art apocalypse is nigh... or is it?

    The advent of AI Art has a lot of Artists concerned for a number of reasons. They don't want their art used without reciprocity. They don't want to lose their jobs. Most of all, they don't want the years of hard work they've put into developing their skillset to be undermined by the click of a button.

    In this video, Ed Foychuk and I debate AI Art, and the potential impact it could have on artists - for better or for worse.

    Plus, you'll also learn:
    ✎ The common thread between artists and AI art generators that no one wants to admit.
    ✎ The number 1 thing AI Art doesn't do, that crosses the line for artists
    ✎ What most of us haven't considered about AI art generation, and the irreversible consequence it could have on all our creativity
    ✎ Why the creative process of artists might be more derivative and less ethical than AI art.
    ✎ Why artists could be worse off without AI Art generators

    Enjoy,

    Episode 71 - The Brave New World of Comics (With Dan Lawlis)

    Episode 71 - The Brave New World of Comics (With Dan Lawlis)

    Veteran comic artist Dan Lawlis joins us today for a long awaited interview. The moment I saw Dan’s work - I knew this was a guy I needed to talk comics with(and collaborate with someday too).

    He’s worked for a bunch of comic book companies, and on a ton of titles throughout the decades - and now, after stepping away to do a stint in storyboarding and advertising, he’s returned to a brave new world of opportunity for comic creators that simply never existed before.

    And he’s having more fun in comics than ever before!

    Here’s what we’re talking about in today’s interview
    • How comics broke Dan Lawlis’s heart.
    • What not to do if you want your art to have energy and soul.
    • The weird effect ‘over-thinking’ has on your art.
    • How to draw accurately, while making your art less generic
    • How to get mentored by your favourite artists - for free.
    • The profound connection between making comics, and making movies.
    • The cutting-edge new way of making and marketing comics.
    • The one missing element that causes traditional comics to win out over digital every time.

    Enjoy the show.
