i just wanted to clarify some things
artists know the risk they are taking when they post their art online. people are inevitably going to take it apart, color edit it, flip it around or otherwise post it uncredited.
saying that an artist shouldn’t post their work if they don’t want it bastardized is probably the stupidest stance on this subject you could take. if all artists followed this line of reasoning, there would be no art on the internet.
when an artist posts their work, they are trusting you to enjoy it respectfully. and when you betray that trust either knowingly or unknowingly, it’s like saying the artist’s time, skills and thoughts aren’t worth anything.
you are NOT entitled to an artists work just because they decided to trust you enough to share it with you.
an artist is within their right to feel upset that someone has used their work in a way they never intended it to be used. they are within their right to ask for it to stop and not happen again.
just because it’s “bound to happen” doesn’t mean it’s any less deplorable.
In 2022, Hiveworks introduced Micro Comic Summer, an online comic challenge shared via the #MicroComicSummer tag on varied social media channels.
Micro Comic Summer is one of many online art challenges that bring creators together to complete a project and share their work with their community. Other well-known examples of art challenges include Hourly Comic Day, where artists draw a comic panel for every hour of their day, and Inktober (along with its inspired spin-offs), a daily illustration challenge in October.
Micro Comic Summer focuses on sustainable art practices, story craft, and art exploration, by encouraging creators to take an entire summer to draw a 4-page comic.
The rules of Micro Comic Summer are as follows:
Rule 1- Tell a story in four pages. This rule is possibly the most challenging aspect: to be succinct and efficient with your page count. Some creators have used this challenge as an opportunity to redraw old webcomic pages or introduce new readers to their pre-existing characters and story. What story you tell is completely up to you!
Rule 2 - You have all summer (or winter, for the southern hemisphere) to do it. From June to the end of August, take your time to perfect your paneling, edit your story, and choose your palette thoughtfully. There is no need to make snap decisions or cut corners for this challenge. The timeframe is meant to encourage exploration and growth.
Rule 3 - Share it online. Use the tag #MicroComicSummer to share your work with others on August 31. Contribute to the conversation around comic artist working conditions.
While Hiveworks introduced Micro Comic Summer, anyone is free to participate. Participation in the tag does not mean you’re submitting your work to us, nor does it mean we own it. It’s just a hashtag, for fun.
We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
🌟 Don’t forget to visit the tag to see what artists have created in 2022 and 2023!

I don't want to feel alone on this one
but who's been a nightmare before christmas fan since the 90's ?
Yeah I'm a fan of a movie since I was 5 years old (1999)
And before I felt alone to be the only one in my french town to know it actually existed (and loved it).
But now I feel alone because the fandom has grew (I still view it possitivally don't worry ^^) but I can't seem to connect with the artistic and movie fans.
Maybe I should quit it, because I feel like a drop in the ocean which is this fandom since it has grew from zero to hero, before it was easy, it was what made me, well me! But I can’t just give up on my all time favorite childhood movie! especially the one where I dare to defy my parents otherprotection by watching it over and over non stop while they were like “Stop watching it! You’ll have nightmares!”.
And oh! For some, the tears trigger in a disney licence were or bambi’s mom or mufasa’s deaths (or both) , to me both of them got a stupid “meh!” from my young simple minded 5 years old self, to me it was when an army guy blow up jack in the sky and when the werewolf howled while sheding a tear that got my breaking point (and I wouldn’t stop crying until Jack got back up with his confidence).
But I can’t seems to connect with no one of the fandom with that because online I don’t know what curse is upon me, or in the street and I see someone nearby in the fandom and we cross eyes, they don’t stop by to talk a little (even a tiny bit about it) (of course street talk is the most of the stranger danger happening in all the minds I understand that don’t worry^^) but ...... it seems that I can’t have a connection with the fandom. I like the lone wolf (if not the grizabella) of the fandom. So I kinda felt a tiny weedy bit pissed to not have connection with the large growing fandom, I’m like an unknown veteran, the “thanks for giving me your fan love but now I’m popular, bye!” rejected.
It’s sad............
this also on my DA page yeah me too I'm a Simsala Grimm fan
I mean don't get me wrong but Holloway did so much Disney characters with his one unique voice, characters like : Winnie the Pooh, Kaa, Cheshire cat, stork, narrators and the list goes on
and I feel that it will be the same thing ith Jack McBrayer since he already voiced two Disney characters even three like Felix Fix It jr, Wander,and the kid with glasses in Phineas and Ferb and maybe he will redo other voices with his unique voice like Sterling Holloway did for Disney
and you know what it will be great
I'm at 33 pages of drawing for that animatic! AND STILL MORE TO GO!!!!!
