#230-Ben <3 Birra Moretti
That Birra Moretti is some good stuff, I recommend it.
Anyway, sorry there was no updated friday, this comic took me a lot longer than I though it would. I hope y’all dig on this style, please give me some feedback so I know if it’s worth doing in the future.
Also, I updated the links page with some comics that I reckon are hella good. This week is final’s week for me, but there’ll still be updates of Wednesday and Friday. I’m also gonna be trying to finish my Scary Go Round guest strip submission and write a ten page paper and a seven page paper and revise another paper and take some finals. So. Who knows what crazy stuff is gonna go down. Y’all come back for more comics goodness on Wednesday!
Oh yeah: here’s the reference photo I used:

i really like the style, and something about the way you captured it makes it look real even though it’s on my monitor (it is a collage, right?). the writing doesn’t fit with it in my opinion. how did you get the cool texture on your “body”? is that gouache? more important, is that a pube on the bottom left there?

Haha, thanks tyler. That is indeed collage (using gouache), and I do need to figure out something to do with the words; I think just putting collage word balloons will help next time. And finally, it’s not a a pube, but it is like a chest hair or leg hair or something, haha, I found it after I had scanned and uploaded. I’m gonna re-scan later so my body hair will not be involved.

[…] I’ve started, but it’s my comic and I can do what I want. I’m gonna try to do it all collage style just to stay sharp on […]
