Challenge: An April of Archetypes
Time for another monthly challenge! I’ve had a lot of requests for videos on character design, so I thought spending a whole month on characters would be a great way to do that! An April of Archetypes, where we will talk about the 12 most common archetypes, what they are and how they enhance your story and helpful tips for drawing them. Also we will make a couple of them battle, but more on that later this month! First archetype for everyone to share their version of will be posted later today!
Challenge: An April of Archetypes
Creativity is constraints
I read a great book a week ago, that had a good point "Creativity is about less and using constraints" If youre trying to create a comic, or anything, its better to make constraints for the creative aspect of it than have every idea in use of your hands. Also stealing 1 idea from some one is stealing, and stealing 100 ideas and mixing them is "being is original" And have other hobbies than drawing aswell, watching for example cartoons may give u inspiration or running outside hours a day might help u generate many high quality ideas Here are some of the few rhings that sticked out for me in the book
Slacking off a bit…
No finished work yet and I’m kind of in a rough spot because I struggle with ADHD. The idea of just doing something even if I love it is just hard. But hey, I made an attempt even if my brain refuses to let me give it my all. Anyone know how to get over the guilt of not being productive? 😂

The 90-Day Comic System
There's a NEW way to create your first comic issue Most people try to learn from YouTube or art courses that teach you HOW to draw but never teach you how to FINISH and PUBLISH a complete story. The problem with this is you accumulate scattered skills but never actually complete anything. You're stuck in learning mode forever with nothing to show for it. 👉 The new way is the 90-Day Comic System 👈 This is superior because it takes you from the ideas in your head to a finished issue in your hands—complete with story structure, accountability, weekly assignments, and individual critique. Not just drawing tips. The full process to actually FINISH and publish. I've written and published multiple comic issues professionally, grew to 150k followers teaching this exact process, and had students specifically request more of my classes because "no one has ever taught this before." Stop collecting tutorials, start finishing comics. Want to know more? Comment NEW and I'll personally reach out. 🤝
