ONLY GOOD THINGS comic zine process scans

Image
These are some of the elements that made up my tiny zine collection ONLY GOOD THINGS. Peeping these scans should give you a decent notion of what my zine making process is like. It's a little shall we say... chaotic? I don't redraw anything on my computer anymore because my digital drawing set-up is busted; all adjustments have to be done on paper. Drawing on paper is always preferable, but now my scanner is busted too and my entire pipeline is jacked! I'm not crying about it though, I swear... :'->

Bits and pieces excavated off an external hard drive

Image
Here's a bunch of baloney that I pulled off of my external hard drive. Some of theses bits and pieces are from various projects that I've made over the past couple of years but there's also stuff in here that never really became anything at all. I think it's all just nice to look at when grouped together like this, you know?

"Please be honest with me, okay?" zine scan

Image
This doggy character has only made two brief appearances in my zines so far but just look at them now! Their very own tiny zine! And all of this before I've even gotten around to naming them. At some point, I will have to sit down and actually do that but not today, okay? My character naming process is fairly simple but also arbitrary and absurd and I just can't. Please! Do not make me try and come up with a name for them... Okay, fine!! You win. I did it. Their name is Fold. It might be a family name? And also their friends call them Folds or Foldy. You know how friends are!

"Gloomy Motorist" wood toy

In addition to the bigger piece I just posted pictures of, I also made these tiny toys for the Gloomy Bear 25th Anniversary art show at Q Pop in July. I only made six of them but there are three different color cars. That has to count for something, right?

"Party Bear" artwork for Gloomy Bear 25th Anniversary art show at Q Pop

Image
"Party Bear" is the title of my contribution to the upcoming Gloomy Bear group art show at Q Pop. This is the largest wood piece I've made up to now (because tiny is always better). But don't worry! I also made some very small Gloomy Bear wood toys for the event which I'll post about momentarily. Until then, enjoy these pictures of my finished piece as well as some WIP snaps below :->

Gobo! zine scan

Image
This tiny Gobo! comic was originally meant to be included in my bigger Go Away, Gobo! zine but all of the other comic strips in there are four panels and this one was eight so I had to give it the boot. I decided to print it out as this lil foldy guy instead. Bonus Gobo!

REAL TOUGH APPLE zine scan

Image
REAL TOUGH APPLE is named after the titular character who is real, tough, and also an apple. If you enjoy this zine, you should take a peek at my zine entitled Go Away, Gobo! which features Real Tough Apple in a few comic strips of a similarly silly nature.

"Please be honest with me, okay?" comic zine

Image
Surprise! I made a new zine. It is tiny and here are a couple of pages from it. This doggy character was featured in my zines Go Away, Gobo! and REAL TOUGH APPLE. And before you ask, no they do NOT have a tail! Some dogs don't have tails, okay?? (please don't make me draw tails)

ONLY GOOD THINGS zine scan

Image
ONLY GOOD THINGS is a compilation of tiny zines made from 2020-2022. I've already posted scans of most of the original zines, but everything had to be reformatted and smooshed around to fit inside this thing. Heck, I redrew one entirely just to make it work in this particular configuration. What can I say! I like making tiny zines, okay?
