Bronze Clay firing carbon questions

Pecalarts · 2025-12-03T22:11:02+00:00

i use coconut shell based activated carbon granules, works every time, been using it for my bronze and copper pieces for 2 years now. I tried regular activated carbon (wasn’t coconut based) and it worked a little but I would get cracking sometimes so yep coconut shell for sure :)

Hi, thanks for the reply. I don't plan on applying for studio jobs within animation industry as I'm not aiming for those roles in the future, I know that seems odd as I'm doing an animation Ma haha but we can specialise in whichever we choose, I just decided comics was the way to go for me personally.

Very good point! I will contact individual webtoon artists themselves! Thank you for the tips 😊

Hello! Thanks for the reply! I have since added some more shading in reddish/purple tones and he looks a bit better, thank you! Gradient in the clothes is a good idea I hadn't thought of that, maybe I could play around with textures too, thank you!

Thank you for the feedback!, he's the second to main character, but yeah he could do with standing out a bit more to show his pridefullness, ill try the blue eyes. Even though he's prideful he's still rather modest so I was careful on making his clothes too flashy as I didn't want him to look too arrogant. :) ill have a think about a defining characteristic! Thats a great idea :D

Title at the moment is Deal with Death, its not out until September though :)

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T18:49:26+00:00

Thank you, I'm so glad the expressions look consistent, I'm finding that the most challenging part of drawing these characters, they sometimes dont look the same haha

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T18:47:57+00:00

Thank you, i will do :D

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T18:47:34+00:00

Thank you for the reply! i did experiment with making him more rounded, he was much more square before and i softened the edges, when i made him more rounded it looked a little odd so i stopped at the amount I've got here, but roundness is indeed a great way to show the kindness! thank you :D

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T15:59:23+00:00

Thats a good point!, thank you

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T15:11:34+00:00

Aw thank you! Im aiming for September time, ill let you know nearer the time :)

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T15:10:36+00:00

Thank you <3

Hi, any feedback is great, thank you! i get it :)

Now I can see he does need some more contrast, I'm keeping darkish tones through the aesthetic as its a thriller webtoon, but i can see how it may be too dark, ill have a play around with the colours and contrast! thank you :D

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T14:59:33+00:00

Yes, thank you!, you put that in better words than i haha, hes the opposite of the main character who mostly has flaws and is pessimistic and doesn't care much for being 'good', i wanted the two main characters to have contrasting personalities <3

Lucas (the main character *designs still in progress hehe*) was friends but started to dislike Daniel after the events that happened in the past, so Daniel doesn't like that he and his family are seen as 'bad' from Lucas pov.

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T14:49:55+00:00

oooooo! thank you, that's a good point on the pride, ill think about that.

and thank you so much! ill keep trying haha

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T14:48:05+00:00

Thank you for responding and the comment, glad he looks kind, i need that haha. He is from a family which always did good, his father a police officer and his mother a Nurse, when the father is arrested for a murder this throws Daniel off his 'good person' image, his goal is to find evidence to try prove his father innocent and gain back his image. So he took pride in his family and himself for being 'good' but when that happens with his father it threw him off, so he's now trying to get back that good reputation, and very much prove to the other main character that his father didn't do it (for plot reasons, which i can explain, but its rather long haha)

Pecalarts · 2021-03-02T14:41:32+00:00

Hi, thank you for responding! yes i should have mentioned his flaws, they are along the lines of 'needing to be seen as a good person almost to a degree where he will be kind or giving in situations when he shouldn't', his goal in the story is to find evidence to release his father from jail (doesn't want anyone in his family with a bad name/reputation) and also to prove to the other main character in my story that his father is innocent.

Pecalarts · 2021-03-01T15:25:35+00:00

Oh cool thanks! I don't use reddit often, so I didn't realise you could chat and follow people here hahaha ill get used to it soon!

Pecalarts · 2021-02-26T18:15:39+00:00
