Hi, New People?

For some unfathomable reason, Tumblr has decided to suggest my blog to brand-new accounts to follow, so I've had a crazy influx of followers who, of the ones that are genuine accounts, probably have no idea what they've signed up for. (sorry.)

Oh, and I also have some new bittern-loving followers who have a slightly better idea but might not know the whole story!

So, here's your chance to escape, if you so choose.

Anyway, I'm Bob! I've been here since like 2012. I mostly make comics, but I also do some prose writing, game dev, and general shitposting. Should you choose to continue following me, you will be subjected to such content as

Canada geese.

Like... a LOT of Canada geese.

Also ferrets, the love of my life. And other art and general musings about my favorite animals, including but not limited to bitterns, grebes, pheasants, parrots, crayfish, eels, every single other type of mustelid, alpacas, etc.

image

But, because I can't be bothered to make myself a consistent "brand," I also make

Very Gay Comics.

I can't emphasize this enough, because I kinda suspect all those plumbing company blogs didn't know this before following me. I make very gay comics.

I'm working on a new webcomic called Into the Smoke that's gonna launch soon. It's about a gay medium who binds himself to a killer ghost, and I think my new follower with the car financing blog is gonna love it.

Lots more on that soon.

Anyway, I don't want to make a super long post. I just want to make sure y'all understand that if you follow me, you will get

Canada geese

and

Very Gay Comics.

Cool? Cool.

The aforementioned Very Gay Comic is now launched!!

I posted this for the bittern lovers, reblogged it for the Canada Goose lovers, and now it’s here again for the pigeon lovers!!

Long neck tiny head? My favorite bird genre.

Disaster spirit medium who’s torn between whether he wants to bang an evil ghost or a celibate priest-exorcist? My favorite gay genre.

Contrary to popular belief the biggest beginner's roadblock to art isn't even technical skill it's frustration tolerance, especially in the age of social media. It hurts and the frustration is endless but you must build the frustration tolerance equivalent to a roach's capacity to survive a nuclear explosion. That's how you build on the technical skill. Throw that "won't even start because I'm afraid it won't be perfect" shit out the window. Just do it. Just start. Good luck.

reblog extremely agree also the frustration of skill building is often conflated with the frustration of audience building because the pressure on young people to post everything publicly makes them feel like it's the same thing but it's not! you are allowed to learn in privacy or semi-privacy without worrying about audience small art communities and critique groups remain great places to share early work for feedback (and also yes the frustration is truly endless - it doesn't stop once you stop being a beginner) (sorry)

I am so bad at mentioning my finished projects.

Did y'all know that I have a free, completed visual novel on itch.io?

Cooking with Belmont is a game where you (Merritt) throw a dinner party with your disaster chef boyfriend (Belmont). No bad endings, only bad cooking.

  • Domestic fluff romantic comedy about an established couple
  • Many cooking disasters
  • 17+ ish age rating (boy do I love off-color humor)
  • There is a ferret voiced by an actual ferret!
  • For the DOTU fans looking for a real, actual Pogo/Samsid kiss… there is one :)

And it’s free!

(If you want to support my work, you can buy the 148-page Cooking with Belmont Collector’s Book that shows allllll the behind-the-scenes “making of” details!)

But before you do that…

So here’s our scenario: you’re making your webcomic, your readers are following to the best of their ability, but you’re hearing the feedback that they can’t tell some of the characters apart. This can be about how you draw them, the styles and coloring you’re using… OR there could be aspects of your writing that are affecting how they’re perceived. For whatever reason, people are getting confused....That's what we call:

Same Face Syndrome! And Screen Tones is here to help you diagnose and treat.

After my musing in the tags of my Into the Smoke post from a couple days ago, I couldn't not make a poll...

bob-artist

I made the poll but I am not responsible for the results ☝️

That said, I do have a biohazard-themed minicomic sketch I’ve been sitting on for like 4 years, so….. watch for that, I guess!

reblogged reply poll strong disagree with the majority lol i come from a medical family (but y'all did as i asked and you did blaze prouder than me) (i was a “not horny for danger” loser)
