I heard "I just don't think that's going to happen" so so so much over the years....

Thanks! :)

1) I tend to do all my comics at a 3300x3300 size per panel. After they're drawn, they're laid into a 3x2 grid in Scribus and the whole thing shrunk down to 750x525, so they end up pretty small. This specific strip was done more in a comic-book style, though.

2) Coloring is pretty much done with paint bucket, and then I use an extra layer to "tint" those colors depending on the environment (in this case, she's on a stage with pink lighting, so I use a layer to tint everything pink).

To get rid of those pixel jaggies when using the bucket fill, make sure that when you're marking out the area to paint with your lasso tool that antialiasing is off. That'll keep those pixels from "Fading out" on the edges.

Rarely drive cause of the car starting to show its age, and lots of medications = cheap gas.

Trying a different take on not wasting ingredients since buying groceries for one is nigh on impossible.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Endgame. A good start, but not my best run against the Demon King. Never got a good handle on the changed Flurry Rush timing in TOTK.

No commentary, as my chronic cough actually interrupted my first attempt to record all this....

That time Google decided that it was gonna show every Wikipedia language EXCEPT English.

Not shown: Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (which I also finished, with much cursing).

Silly Jenn Fact: When I was very very very little, I thought Doug Henning was Jesus.

@gaghyogi49 - I absolutely LOVE this shot, because it give such a sense of location of three seperate pieces. The saucer shuttle bay, the star drive and the shuttle. It really feels like they're in a real universe.

@JoKeR @webcomictalk - Q3: Usually when I see another effect in a comic I like that I can't replicate. :)

@JoKeR @webcomictalk - Q4: GIMP is not an easy learn. I spent years learning it, and am still finding out new things ever year. But if you can stick with it, and can learn how to use it, it can work wonders.
