Chapter 40 of Rema, “The Water Goddess” is online. Read it here.

Only 4 more weeks until the book is complete. I… I still don’t know how to feel about this. Just keeping my head down and plowing ahead!

Man I love Amy’s art. Always have.

deantrippe:

Me and Dan Mishkin talk SUPERHEROES with Jerzy Drozd on the Comics Are Great! video podcast. I thoroughly enjoyed this discussion. Let me know if I sounded even a little bit interesting rambling on about fights, flights, and tights.

Dean and Dan should do a weekly podcast on superheroes. We would all be better for it.

How to import “pencils” into LayerPaint

I’ve been sharing a lot of sketches I’ve created on my Galaxy Note 10.1 with LayerPaint . And in some cases I’ve started the sketch in another app like Papyrus (another great sketching app) or on a piece of scratch paper, then imported the drawing into LayerPaint for finishing.

But when you import the art into LayerPaint, you may have noticed that the app will resize your canvas to the dimensions of the imported image. I may start with a 2300x1500px canvas, but if I import a sketch that’s 590x600px, it will reset the canvas to the latter.

However, LayerPaint offers a way to import your sketches without resizing your canvas. I’ve put together this visual tutorial that explains all the steps.
