- Characters don’t have to always be detailed sometimes a small blob with a speach bubble is fine too

- Small panels can contain scenary it doesn’t have to be half page all the time

- Tilted panels shapes are cool but don’t do it in every page keep it for the action/tense scenes

- Don’t over do close shots or they lose their meaning

- Try to have a full body of your character (even if small) at least every 2 pages

- Let the audience breathe, characters don’t have to be in every single panel

- Same face angle is boring but too many different camera positions are confusing find a balance

- Backgrounds first, characters later

- Color backgrounds one page at a time but color objects all at once through all the comic (all the faces then all the air and so on)

- The closer the object the thicker the lineart

- THUMBNAILS THUMBNAILS THUMBNAILS

- Write down your text near those thumbnails you won’t remember shit later

- ALWAYS think ahead of the space for the speach bubbles

- Give your characters a dark and a light color each so they will pop against any background

- For a fast shade fill the shadow layer set it to multiply 20/30% and erase the lighter parts

- Compare the pages one next to the other the panel lines should not touch or be too close

- 4 pages at a time the layouts should all be different

- By all means do get your characters out the frames but if you gotta do it do it all the way, a single strain of hair sticking out just looks weird.

- Don’t be scared of empty sections

- There should be a difference between the orizontal and vertical spaces between the panels

- Study other comics especially ones with good visual flow

- Everything should have a purpose and sometimes to be fun to read is enough
