8/5/2023 0 Comments Sketchup for web comics![]() ![]() If your sketchup-made panel is done where it's improperly lit or the line quality is sufficiently different from your own art so that it looks jarring and obvious that you used Sketchup, it will indeed look hokey. Hell yes, it's corner-cutting, but if it delivers a good-looking product, then you've got a good-looking product. For my buildings and scenery in Ikon, I've done perspective grid projections by hand as well as traced 3D models, and I've abused the CTRL C + CTRL V for the windows in the night scene from page 10 forward, scribbling over them to make them look not-monotonous. In short, it's not cheating because there is no solid requisite for how much effort you need to put into a drawing in order to convey a meaning. They're not cheating, they're using a different medium. I mean, entire comics are done with everything 3D rendered. Legally, does anybody know how much money counts as monetary purposes? If I make 10$ on Patreon, do I have to buy the 600$+ license, or is it the usual legal 1000$. I already know how I want to use it and have my own ethics and comfort zone.Īlso, I'm curious if people know at what point it's legally being used for monetary purposes, both skill wise and monetarily. ![]() This is less for my own purposes and more for curiosity. What would people's limits be? At what point do you start to see it as lazy or unprofessional? Does it matter if the person is making money on it? Are people obligated to tell readers they use it, or do you not mind as long as they don't lie and it looks fine? Do you think it stunts art skill or lets people reference and practice lighting and perspective? There's a range of ways to use sketchup in comics, from modeling all your own resources to downloading entire buildings, from referencing to tracing to pasting on. Some people, however, feel like it's cheating and creatively dishonest, and I can see some of that sentiment. ![]() It's used a lot on webcomics to get fast, clean backgrounds, and even used by some big names in both webcomics and industry comics like Marvel. Sketchup is a 3D modeling software that you can render into black and white line art. Lichtenstein’s drew inspiration from, newspapers, comic books, cartoons, and advertisements, and so his work became known as Pop Art because it portrayed images from popular culture.As I've said on my comic, I lost the bag with all my art supplies, including my tablet, so have decided to take this time to learn sketchup. ![]() Looking closely at his works, one can often see the pattern of dots. Lichtenstein was inspired by the effect and and incorporated the technique in his work. In the printing process at the time, the spacing of four different colors of dots either close together, far apart, or on top of each other, enabled the printers to mix all the colors. Benday Dots were originally used in the early days of color printing, usually in cheap news papers and magazines. His paintings emulated the strong black outlines evident in comic book art often using thick, horizontal stripes and patterned dots, called Benday Dots. Like many of his contemporaries he was inspired by commercial art of the 1960’s. Later he would teach classes Ohio State and also taught art classes at SUNY Oswego, and then Rutgers University.ĭuring the early 1960’s Lichtenstein created his first Pop Art paintings. After high school he studied art at Ohio State University earning his bachelor’s degree and then received a MFA from the the same school. Although he loved to draw, his High School didn’t offer art classes so he would draw during his free time. Roy Lichtenstein was born in 1923 in New York City where he lived most of his life of 74 years. ![]()
