Traditional Comics!

Photo of all 333 physical Dead City pages in a stack.

I got a comment recently from someone who’s not able to start comics because they can’t afford a tablet and I want to shout from the rooftops that you don’t need fancy gear to make a comic!!! Both Dead City and Gender Slices were completely traditional (aside from some grey tones in Dead City).

I love traditional work. I love pens. I love ink.

Go grab some paper, grab a pen, and get started on your comic!!!

In 2023 I inherited my mother-in-law’s old mini DSLR, gave it a real good clean and replaced the swollen battery. Since then I’ve been having a real fun time with it! It’s so small and easy to pop in my bag and the zoom on this lil’ guy is so incredibly good.

These photos were my first foray back into photo editing. I haven’t done any proper photography since college (2008-2012) so go easy on me. I’m still re-learning how to do it.

So in 2023 I started getting back into photography and more specifically film photography. For our honeymoon I’d borrowed a friend’s Samsung Slim Zoom and really enjoyed using it, there’s something about the colours and graininess of film that I just love so much.

I’ll be posting these irregularly and I’m not going to stress about it AT ALL. No schedule, just maybe 10 photos at a time. I might post them on tumblr too but we’ll see.
