I am No ARTEEST, but Iām going to save this for my future reference. Thanks.Ā
Beyond this, consider how these professions might vary depending on who the customers are - nobles, or lower class. Are they good at their job or just scraping by? Do they work with lots of other people or on their own? City or village?
For younger characters:
Apprentice to any of the above
Messenger/runner
Page/squire
Pickpocket
Shop assistant
Student
Looks after younger siblings

Also consider:
Candlemaker Ferryman Factor (looks after business for an employer in another city) Tiler Cutler Beekeeper Apothecary Interpreter Furrier Moneylender/Banker Winemaker Tinker (small trader who repairs stuff) Nightsoil collector Customs officer Also a bonus for animal related professions: Fowler (supplies game birds for eating) Warrener (catches rabbits on your land for you to eat) Ostler (looks after your horses) Falconer (looks after your falcons) Cocker (looks after your fighting cocks)
I need more fantasy rpg in my life that isnāt d&d-style. I think itās time for some Sword & Backpack.

Webcomic tips
In the conclusion for now, some things Iād really recommend doing if youāre seriously considering making a webcomic (or really a comic in general). Some of these donāt really apply to strips or gag-a-day type of comics, but Iām not talking about those here.
1. Write down ideas\sketch stuff, LEGIBLY. āIām gonna remember it laterā NEVER works. And if you scribble it somewhere on a piece of paper, youād better scan it or retype in one doc later, because tiny notes always get lost among other doodles in my skethbooks.
(i know itās hard to keep everything clean and organized, but this mess is just not productive)
If your project is a collaboration, save your conversations. If youāre working alone, make a blog for your ramblings. You have no clue what tears of relief I cry when I open that blog and rememeber I donāt have to painstakingly look through my heaps of sketchbooks and folders for a tiny idea Iām not even sure I wrote down a few months ago.
2. Inspiration folders, or even better, inspo blog with tags also help with collecting and remembering ideas. Color schemes, landscapes, style inspirations, atmospheric stuff, maybe some photo references, all those neat things.
3. Basic tier: character design sheets. Top tier: common poses, expressions. God tier: outfits they wear throughout the comic. Holy cow tier: turnaround sheets for all those outfits.
(Iād die trying to find good pages for references without these)
4. If you havenāt finished detailing the plot, donāt even think about moving on to drawing the comic. Youāre gonna regret it when you come up with a really cool plot element that canāt be incorporated anymore because youāve already drawn all the parts you couldāve tweaked.
5. Donāt just define the plot, make a script. Writing down the lines and the brief description of the actions serves me fine:
(notice that I approximately divided the pages & the text thatād go to each panel on a page)
6. Hard mode: make thumbnails for all the pages, if possible. At least whenever a new chapter starts.Ā
7. If your story involves some convoluted chronology shenanigans, youād better write down the events of your timeline in the chronological order.
8. Backgrounds. You canāt avoid them, bro. Like half of the comics are backgrounds, especially if your story involves a lot of adventuring and looking around. I know it hurts, but youāll have to become friends with them. Read some tutorials, practice on photos, go out and sketch some streets, use 3d programs (like Google Sketch) to understand the perspective, use sites like houseplans to visualize your buildings better, I donāt know. Just be prepared for their imminent evil. Ā
9. If youāre drawing digitally, pick a brush size for the lines and stick with it. You donāt want your lines and detail levels to look all wonky and inconsistent in different panels. And I donāt mean the cool stylistic varying lines, I mean this:
Also, things on the background should have thinner and/or lighter lines to avoid distraction. Usually less details too, unless youāre making a busy background with a simple foreground to help it pop out. Or wanna draw the attention to an object on the bg.
10. Readable fonts. Even if you chose to ignore people with poor sight or dyslexia, the majority of your readers arenāt gonna be excited about struggling to decypher this:
Also, as much as I love my black speech bubbles, colorful text on black still kinda hurts the eyes. I wouldnāt recommend doing that for all the characters. Black speech bubbles are usually used for creepy, inhuman voices. And yes, having a colorful outline in this case helps.
11. Probably newsflash, but did you know that panels have their place, order and functions? They do! My favourite thing ever is how I used panels when I was like 12:
(comics aināt rocket science, but this one is)
The composition of the panels and word balloons always serve for a better reading experience. They guide your eyes over the page, so that you never feel lost or confused. The images in the comic equal frames in a movie, so itās pretty damn important in what order you look at things and how quickly you can understand whatās going on!
(Eric Shanower & Scottie Youngās Wizard of Oz)
12. One update a week is fine for testing waters. Donāt overestimate yourself, especially if you have a pretty busy life outside it. A stable comic that updates slowly, but regularly is better than an unpredictable erratic one. You can always pick up the pace later, if you feel confident enough.
13. Try to always have a buffer - a couple of pages in reserve. If youāre making the pages much faster than youāre updating, this shouldnāt be a problem. But if those paces are equally the same, itās goddamn HARD. But on the other hand, if something happens and you skip an update, those come in handy.
If youāre looking at this list and thinking āwow thatās a LOT of workā, youāre totally right. And itās okay to be intimidated at first! But thatās why itās important to start with something small. Once you get the formula down, these things will be natural to you.

Anatomical Framework Tips 2.0Ā by Astrikos
* Update*Ā
Digitized/cleaned up this framework & uploaded layered graphics files so you can go through it, layer by layer.Ā
The purple lines indicate rhythms of muscles, red is mostly bony landmarks/armature, and the bracket lines show relative proportions.Ā
I find learning equivalent widths to be a bit easier than measuring 8 heads every time, at least for gesture drawings.Ā

Art Fight 2017!
Starting again on July 1st is my favorite online artist event:Ā Art Fight! If you have OCs, and enjoy making and receiving art involving OCs, then I highly suggest you check out the site and set up an account!Ā
For those who arenāt familiar with Art Fight, hereās a brief overview:
Each year, participating artists are split into two teams.Ā
The main goal is to find any artist from the team opposite yours, andĀ āattackā them by drawing art of their ocs! Your team receives points based on what you create.Ā
Artists that receive attacks can then ācounterā by drawing an OC belonging to the person who fought them!
The official about page with more in depth information is located here!
Art Fight is a great chance to interact with tons of different artists, get to know the amazing OCs that others have created, and have a lot of fun making art! The art you receive is also very exciting; you never know who may attack you!Ā
The event lasts a month (July 1st - August 1st), and the team with the most points by the end wins!
My account can be found here,Ā if anyone feels like attacking me! I hope to see you there!!
a series of composition tips iād been sharing on twitter!
and since some people had asked,Ā iāve put up a pdf version of this on gumroad along with a layered psd of one of the example images too
tips would be really appreciated, but itās up for free!

Q+D Anatomy Lessons- Neck and Shoulders by Turtle-Arts
Ā This reference sheet includes 50+ body types for people who struggle in creating unique character bodies.Ā Also I did a mini-breast tutorial, because I didnāt add breasts to any of the body types since breasts are so customizable.
Edit: I added 4 more body types in this preview, since people really enjoyed this reference sheet. I also edited the description of male/female bodies for clearer understanding. Thank you for enjoying my reference sheet, Iām glad this was helpful to many people.
Support my Patreon, for the full reference sheet and future ones!

Thank you~
I have the most trouble with perspective and backgrounds, so Iām practicing and uploading my drawing steps for peopleās reference. Hope you find it useful!Ā
Photo Reference Video Tutorial on Perspective Make your own perspective lines in Photoshop
OKey dokey, uncle Aes has some tips thatāll make your lives a little more easier. This is how to make a picture more believable when having a character interact with an item that is larger than their persons. First tip! -Always draw the object that is being acted upon, FIRST.
Letās take this chair for example, drawing a character sitting is not an easy task, I know. But with a little know how and can-do it can be pretty fun and satisfying. Drawing the object that is being acted upon first not only lends a little more realism, but it also really helps when you are drawing in perspective, case and point
Here is the difference between 1)drawing the chair first, THEN drawing the figure, versus 2)Drawing the figure first, then drawing everything AROUND that figure. #2 does not make a lot of sense, itās all wonky and the proportions are all wrong, this is because the chair is conformin to the figureās weight.
Example 2, stairs. Figure 1 will always look more believable than figure 2. The figure drawing Ā in example 1, is under the forced perspective that the stairs lend. Example 2 makes for a confusing picture to look at. because we donāt know where the feet fall naturally, and the stairs are uneven and UGLY
With both examples where the character is drawn first, the weight of the character is manipulating the environment around it, instead of the other way around. Perspective is really hard to understand, but it is really important to practice it EVEN if it looks funny. In these examples right above, they do not give a very realistic/believable reading. Itās always gonna be a guessing game of where to put an object, and if youāre gonna have a guessing game it might as well be the CHARACTER youāre guessing about and NOT the environment.
All in all, to those strugglin with drawing characters in an environment, always ALWAYS draw the object that is being acted upon FIRST. Iām not gonna say that my drawings are absolutely accurate, they still look wonky time to time, but it helps to be mindful of these things! Donāt be afraid to try tho, always use a reference and soon enough youāll get the hang of it too :^y
Hey friends, itās Meg!
Back for another TUTOR TUESDAY! Today we take a look at feet and how they work! Iām always looking for recommendations, so if you have anything youād like help with feel free to send it in here or on my personal blog.Ā Keep practicing, have fun, and Iāll see you next Tuesday!
