Introduction - hello and nice to meet you!
-
Are those donuts real? If not, they sure do look real!
Welcome to the forums fellow Canadian! What is comics flattening? All I can think of (I just realized I can easily google this) is flattening Photoshop layers. Am I right? Now to check google....
-
So fun! You should do more with the paper cut-out thing. It would be fun to see a story in that format.
Glad to have you here.
-
Great stuff, and the doughnuts are a perfect size for maintaining my waistline I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work.
-
@J-L-Martin i love those miniature snacks of yours
-
Welcome to the forums!

Hi welcome!
I love Jeff, nice work there.
Oh my goodness, miniature donuts. How? What are they made of?
-
Thanks for the welcome! So glad to be part of this community.
@DarleneAnico Thanks! Glad you like crazy Jeff.
@Miriam Ha ha. I don't watch The Office but I know who Dwight is and can totally see Dwight in there. Maybe Jeff needs a name change, or a demotion.
@Braden-Hallett Thanks very much!
@danielerossi Yay Canada and the Maple Glaze doughnut! I wish the doughnuts were real! Thanks for asking about flatting. It's the process of separating areas of a page of linework into colours and then making sure the flats extend properly "behind" the linework for offset printing. I had to teach myself but there are loads of great tutorials out there if you search for "comics flatting". There are also some great plugins out there to speed up the process.
@TessaW Thanks very much for the encouragement.
@demotlj Lol. If only all the doughnuts I ate were this size.
@nyrryl-cadiz Thanks!
@Chip-Valecek Thanks glad to be here.
@TwiggyT Thanks! The wee doughnuts are made of polymer clay, chalk pastels, and acrlyic glaze on the shiny bits.

Welcome! Love the cutout with the banana. Fun.
-
@burvantill Hey! Thanks a bunch (:D bad banana joke). The banana was really fun to make although took me ages to get the shape right.
-
@J-L-Martin I thought that was a real banana and you took a photo and then put the image together digitally. Amazing miniature food making skills!
-
@neschof Aw thanks - I'm so glad you thought it was real! Here's a fun little vid of the same banana I used in that drawing showing the scale.

@J-L-Martin Very cool
-
Welcome! Best wishes in all your endeavors! Great art and miniature mash-up... to me it really looks professional. I honestly wasn’t expecting the sketch to become something so awesome, so I was surprised when I scrolled down and saw your supermarket scene. I’m also into miniatures, but just miniature paintings... not as cool as 3D.

@KathrynAdebayo Thanks so much. I'm hoping to greatly improve all my drawing and composition skills. That stuff does not come easy to me at all and I'm very conscious of learning more toward the writing than the illustration side. So...lots to work on. I checked out your etsy store and your miniature paintings are quite amazing! I love the sea horse especially.
