People are tweeting that their pets are kinda loosing their mind because they are home due to the quarantine (my own cats are really happy / confused because my husband is home) so I drew this.
Firstly, the myth that you HAVE to draw in color or your comic will be boring and unpopular. Well manga exists, so no. The possibilities of textures, patterns, and contrasts are ENDLESS. (Art from Tiger Tiger by @petra_nordlund, Bride Stories, Bone, Gisele Alain)
Secondly, working in black and white forces you to focus on paneling, inking, contrast and negative space. The color white is NOT YOUR ENEMY. Exploit that negative space and contract for dramatic effect. (Art from Bleach and Speak the Devil by @MLeeLunsford)
Thirdly, boy is black and white cheap to print? So cheap! Cheap cheap cheaaaap! While looking amazing. And because it's cheaper, you can invest cash into making that cover art INSANE.
I haven't even mentioning screentone texturing yet? And how clip studio is awesome for black and white stuff? Give in. Try it.
