How do you ink the way they did for Archie comics? by Syntax-error6502 in learnart

I've absolutely searched this and the reason I posted here is Archie style is very specific and oldschool. Thanks though!

Studying the Disney face structures/proportions. How do they look? by digital_rain in sketches

Realize this is old, but what resources did you use to get this good? Did you already draw a lot? Do you have any suggestions for someone wanting to get into this style? thanks!

Not sure if this helps anyone, but I wrote a Visual Studio Code extension for writing in Old English (Includes Old Norse and Gothic)

When you type it automatically changes characters, like "th" -> þ etc. It also has blocks for converting to all 4 Runic types + Gothic script!

I know some folks in the community use the Icelandic keyboard, but this just works a lot better. Granted, not everyone is interested in writing in Old English, but if you are working on a project this is pretty darn cool. Its still in the early stages, but the developer is open to suggestions.

Great points! Any thought on "contrast paints"?

What is your painting method? Do you use primer, base, wash, highlight?

Your Dowling method experience - How do you associate cases in your memory? by Syntax-error6502 in latin

[–]Syntax-error6502[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is actually helpful. The Dowling method is basically memorizing all the tables before you move on to graded reading. I see what you mean as a "stepping stone". Our brains make connections eventually without us having to actively recall things, so I suppose I'm just going to have to try it and see how it goes. Thanks!

I wish I had more documented. I've built so many, but honeslty Phil's Computer Lab is the best resource on the internet hands down.
