The Ins and Outs of Webcomics, comic page. "Art" with a drawing of Jey as the Iron Giant meme where Dean yells "ART!" "This is the good stuff, but how good does it need to be? You can draw as simple or as detailed as you'd like, but it's good to know how long a page takes you to do before you start scheduling your comic." "What do you want to prioritize? It's great to learn to draw backgrounds, but it the comic doesn't call for it you don't have to draw a background in every panel." This text is over top of layers of comic pages and Jey on a time limit while looking at their watch with a grimace. A clock illustration with the text "Time Yourself. How long does it take you to make a page start to finish? If it takes you a week to finish 1 page, you probably don't want your webcomic schedule to be twice a week." A greyscale version of the CMYK and RBG venn diagram with the text "Will your webcomic be in colour or B&W? Does colour add anything? Colour doesn't equal better. B&W can save you a lot of time (and money if you end up printing.)" A pen on paper icon with the text "Does is better than perfect. Having a finished page is better than a page that's never good enough. Because it will never be good enough, and you just have to be okay with that." "Fall in love with the process! You should enjoy every step of the process most of the time. Yes sometimes scripting is a slog, and sometimes sketching can feel like pulling hair. But ultimately the process of making the page should be the most enjoyable part."
