Brood of the Outerfish pg. 41
So I accidentally screwed up my website a bit when trying to update Wordpress, which is why I didn’t post a page on Thursday. Currently the only real problem is that the OF WHAT KIND? theme to the site won’t work, so you’ll have to settle for the classic GOOD SHOW SIR! vibe.
Anyway, the first panel on this page was a bit of a learning experience for me, as I wasn’t sure I...

Couldn’t update last week because of teaching responsibilities, but things are getting rollin’ pretty seriously over here, BIG TIME.
This page is working off a pretty weird layout concept, and I had to try and push the colors to guide the reader’s eye. Did it work? COMMENT AND LET ME KNOW.
Also, I’ve been getting back into sketching again, and it feels great. ...

Hey everybody!
Some cool news! CBR’s Comics Should Be Good blog featured OF WHAT KIND? as part of their Month of Webcomic series. It’s a nice little article that hopefully brought some new viewers (maybe even YOU?!?!) to this here comic. If you just started reading, thanks for coming and I hope you enjoy it! Stick around, things are about to get crazy.
Anyway, here’s the...

Perspective is a tricky thing. So, usually, instead of actually doing proper perspective (which I can’t, really), I use magic and trickery to make it look like I’m doing it. Which is what I did here.
I’ve been envisioning this sequence in my head for awhile, and while it isn’t exactly what I’d picture, I like it anyway!
I’m trying to convert my main site...

Hey hey hey.
Alright everybody say bye bye to Principal (for now). FINALLY moving forward with the story, in a big way. Gonna start to get into the real meat of this shiz in the next two weeks. PREPARE.
Watching the ADVENTURE TIME panel from TCAF has me all sorts of hot and bothered about making comics and animations, man. Some seriously talented animators and comickers work on that show, and...

Hey all! Last Thursday it was Children’s Day in Korea, which meant a day off for me. While I had every intention of having a page up that day, when I opened Photoshop to begin coloring, it just didn’t feel right. SO I SAID SCREW IT.
Anyway, TCAF just happened, and I wish really badly I could have gone (could somebody invent teleportation already, what’s the hold up?). But,...

So this whole thing is a perfect example of the tangents you find yourself going on when you make comics on the fly. It can make things difficult and complicated to do things this way, but it’s fun little diversions like this that make it all worthwhile.
Not really digging the colors here, might change them a bit. But, I always say that and then never do because I look back a few days...

Hey everybody! It’s been weird adapting my coloring to daytime scenery, since most of the story so far has taken place in darker rooms/hallways/caves/townships, etc. So most of my coloring/shading skills have been based around that. But I’m learning how to handle well lit coloring, or so I hope!
I just saw THOR, with Korean subtitles of course, and it was pretty cool! There’s...

This page took a long time to get finished. Pencils and inks took the normal amount of time, but colors were particularly difficult. I always find the pages with big, open, outdoor spaces to be the hardest to color.
This is a ZIPLINER. It is a silly, impractical vehicle that we will see more of in the coming pages.
Anyway, pleased with this page, especially the top part. Brings the movement...

Hey gang! Not sure about the coloring on this one, but whenever I feel that way about a page I come back a few days later and end up being pretty happy with it, usually. Coloring is tough but it’s definitely one of the more rewardingly difficult parts of making OF WHAT KIND?.
I wonder about the layout of this page. Is the panel order clear to everyone, or is it a bit muddled? Sometimes...

Sometimes you just draw a page and ya sit back and you go, “Yeah. Alright. Comics.” I’m quite happy with this page!
This is the first REAL appearance of a major character in the story, who you’ll be seeing a lot more of in the days to come. I say “first REAL” because he did appear before, but not in any real way that you might have noticed. See if you can...

Brood of the Outerfish pg. 30 (!!)
Here we are, 30 pages in! Technically more because the first page I posted was actually two pages and because the War of the Fog intermission story was 4 pages, but let’s not split hairs.
30 pages isn’t much in the grand scheme of things, but its the furthest I’ve gotten into one comic story. And, considering I’d originally intended this entire story to be about 30...

Deep 6'ed (Part 3)
After a very hectic Halloween week wherein I made a bunch of t-shirts and sold them to tourists in Salem, I am back with comics! These may be old comics, but the next DEEP 6’ED update is going to be ALL NEW stuff nobody’s seen but MOI.
Also, tomorrow there’s gonna be a new OF WHAT KIND? page over here: http://www.goodshowsir.com/ofwhatkind
Some cultural stuff I wanted to...
