Artist's Comments

This is a 3-page comic about a unsolicited photography at a slumber party.

This piece was drawn and inked on paper, then scanned and painted in Photoshop. I'm particularly pleased with the mix of soft and hard brushes on this one. I initially drew this comic on 14x17" paper which gave me a lot more room for detail.

That's fantastic!. It's not only funny but well drawn and coloured. I especially like the attention to detail. That panel where the photographer's feet are disappearing into the window as the girls pull him in - you've taken the time to subtly indicate the rest of the street in the backgound. I would say most people* wouldn't have bothered but it helps tell the tale by establishing the suburban setting. Nice one!

*especially me. I hate doing backgounds but I like looking at them. I'm gonna fave that!

Thank you for the compliments! I think the background in that panel makes a difference. Before I add the street and it was just a solid block of color, I tried showing the in-progress version to a few people and they were confused by that panel because, apart from the feet, it was too abstract. Adding the street makes it more intuitive to see that the shapes on the left side of the panel are the window frame and side of the house. So I needed something there that would help put those shapes in the right context but wouldn't draw attention away from the action which is why I stuck with a soft monochrome.

This is really cute. I enjoy the coloring, it's very pink and girly, which fits, as one would imagine. And I love the outfit the boy is forced into, it's so cute. And the theme, of course.

HA HA HA REVENGE:heart:

I do love all the expressions. The way you make faces is so soft and stylized without being overly cartoony. And, of course, masterful coloring and lighting!

I wants me a girlboy pillow.
