People don't like to admit it bcs cringe or w/e but Homestuck really did revolutionize the webcomic as a storytelling medium and I am endlessly frustrated that before webcomic artists could really stretch our legs fucking webtoonz swooped in, set a new, more restrictive standard, and then monetized and monopolized the ever living fuck out of the concept of The Webcomic until it drove away anyone who couldn't be a professional quality manga artist for free, and now the only webcomics that actually feel like spiritual successors to Homestuck are so obscure they're basically cult classics that you have to beg people to read.

Like it's just so wild to be in high school and see Homestuck be like "we're using like fifteen different artistic mediums to tell this story bcs we can" and be really fucking inspired by that, only to grow up and see basically every webcomic ever have to conform to One Single Standard or fucking perish.

Hello! I'm Sam, and I am a self-taught comic artist and formally taught graphic designer. I love designing characters more than anything else, but I'm branching out into environment design as well. I use Clip Studio Paint, Paint.NET, and Photoshop 2018 for my digital art.

This is a sampling of concept art from two webcomics I am working on- Rebound (as artist and co-writer) and Mack Attack (as sole creator). Imagine how difficult it was to find a matching blog color for both. For convinience, you can find posts related to each tied with #reboundcomic or #mackattack.
