Behind the Scenes - Part 1 (May 2016)
🕑 Added 2017-02-18 22:25:25 +0000 UTC So this was my attempt at a 'how-to' feature exploring my painful creative process, which contains way more steps than anyone else's creative process, because I'm (a) a Luddite and (b) a moron.Anyway, it's also the only time I've put up pictures of me in connection to the comic. Not that that's a selling feature or anything, but yeah.

Ok, ok, I'm buying your tale.<br><br>Who am I to judge.<br><br>And it's still one hell of a nice hat.<br><br>Just sayin'.
ElectricGecko
I don't wear hats. Not while I still have hair. If (or when) that goes, I'll take up hats.
ElectricGecko
No squid hat. If it makes it any better, I am wearing a shirt for a nerdy video game comedy band in that picture. I have true 'social outcast' street cred. Honest.

R U earning extra income as a Hat-Model ?

Now, now, don't take this the wrong way, or let it go to your head, but you're way too handsome (I said it, ok?) to be any kind of Internet Idol for nerds.<br><br>Now, I don't recommended piercings, tattoos, or anything else that sticks out in a Police Lineup, but <i><b>something</b></i> must be done.<br><br>How about this ? <br><br><img src="https://img0.etsystatic.com/000/0/5293814/il_fullxfull.57770648.jpg">

We all do, don't we? How little people can tell the depths of our weirdness from our faces...
ElectricGecko
It's laziness. Pure laziness. It also explains why I frequently go off-model on my own characters. I don't even bother with a ref sheet. The finished product suffers for it, but I'm so slow at drawing, if I had to look up ref pics for every pose, I'd never get anything done.

:D

And you also looking like a fine, upstanding citizen.

You don't use reference? I find that amazing.
SalemCat
