Holiday Week: Time Lapse 1
🕑 Added 2020-12-27 03:01:00 +0000 UTCSo the new version of Clip Studio, the software I draw my comics in, has a TIME LAPSE VIDEO feature! It's pretty neat! Here's a quick clip of me drawing an upcoming strip. Feels wild to see several hours of work condensed down to 30 seconds, lol

That is some great magic to watch. You make it look effortless.

Those are serious eyebrows. Nobody should fool with her now. Kids, well let's just say they have yet to comprehend how serious eyebrows can be. Let them be.

Nice time lapse, and it does it all by itself. Damn that's a sweet feature to add.

Is there a canon height for May? I hope she's 6'2" now, because my girlfriend is that tall and she reminds me of May, what with all the being suspicious of other people's altruism toward her and all.

This is SO COOL.

Speech bubble tails are missing in the top right panel. Also, methinks Sam is about to get another important lesson vis-a-vis prying into other people's personal matters.

Now quick go look at QC #1; someone should make a timelapse of your art style over time
This is so cool to see. As someone who draws (albeit not as well) it's so awesome to see the processes of other artists. Love your comics Jeph, I hope you're getting rest dude.

Seconded - in your own time, obviously.
Lucy Glorius
OhMyGosh, this is SO COOL! Thank you very much. 😀💖

You only do a *single* guide draft line layer? Jeez my first draft layers look like children’s crayon scribbles. You’ve come so far since your first comic it’s incredible
Jeffrey Anderson
That right there is sofa king cool, Jeph. Thanks.
Zain Redding
Wow, a master at work.
Awesome! =) It's great to see your process! =)
Kaarchin
Hey that's cool!

Take a week off they said... I don’t hate this, it is not horrible.
AcheronYYC
That's super neat, thanks for posting it!
This is the best kind of bonus content, especially if it doesn't require extra effort to produce. So good to see the process.
Fuzzy Logik
That's cruel and unusual punishment.

I've always loved "how it's made" vids. I never imagined you started with the dialog then filled in the background, then the characters. Cool!
William Cole
V cool! I voted for "take a week off" because I sincerely believe you (more than) deserve some down time, but I find process stuff fascinating, so if it's suitably low effort to share more of these, I'd love to see them.
This is awesome! It'd be really cool to hear you talk through your process and the steps you take.

I still kinda hold that robot jail is mostly AIs doing forced "community service". May was made responsible for monitoring crosswalk requests for a suburb of Muncie.
Mark Thomas
It's amazing to see just how few lines are necessary to make it completely clear who the character being sketched is. Not even ten lines are necessary for them...
Kaos7heory
I remember when you used to stream these on twitch until you got banned/suspended for a boner cat AFK sketch. Definitely have missed those streams. Would love to see more of these!

Woah this was awesome :O
Mark Mckay
why do I feel like this needs the yakit sax music...
Kat Kennewell
Holy crap that is so cool!!!!! 😍 Thank you so much for sharing!
Tamara Temple

Joseph Bonnar
Thank you, Jeph. And may you have a wonderful new year.
John S
Wow that is really cool
David Hernandez
WAY COOL! Wow. Thanks for sharing this. DEFINITELY do it again!

I just watched this five or six times, pausing frequently. It was really interesting. I'll pick out two things to comment on. First, I liked how your pencil drawings were visible but in a different layer throughout, but particularly when drawing the background. I can see how that would be really useful. The other thing is the way the characters jerk slightly after they're inked, and at one point it looks like she jumps in front of May. I infer that each character is in her own layer, and May was pulled forward so that she could be finished easily and just pushed back behind for a slight overlay, instead of having to guess where every line should go. Very cool!
This is great! Awesome to see your process.
lilibat
so cool
Matthew Graf
Awh that is cool as hell Jeph! Maybe next year, more Bembo?
Ginaelisa Cortez
Omg! Omg! Omg! I love this!!!!!
Michael Boettger
Agreed! That is really neat to watch. To see the evolution of a particular strip.
Kris Jones
That's actually pretty cool
VideoBrew
Honestly, the most fascinating parts for me were which parts of the comic Jeph switched to working on when.
BobC
Nice to see. You make it look easy! I still can't draw.
nowshowjj
This is super cool to see. Also, how am I just noticing those eyebrows?
Scott Vogel
As long as these don't add to much to your work load I'd love to see more in the future.
Slashplane
This is really cool to watch..
Chris Mannes
That is really cool, to see the minor ... shifts? corrections? whatever. It's neat to see it come together!
Matt Grayson
Wow! Total fun! Thanks, Jeph.
Melvin Miller
Thats amazing work!
