About this episode

Tom Martin discusses his journey in digital comics creation and shares insights on Clip Studio Paint and art workflows.

Tom Martin joins Nerdy Mewzings for a fun, no-holds-barred chat about digital comics creation, Clip Studio Paint mastery, his Kubert School days, and the wild world of social media art advice. Tom shares his journey from traditional art school and Hasbro Star Wars packaging design to becoming a go-to creator for Clip Studio tutorials and vector workflows. He breaks down his clever process for converting complex raster line art to clean vectors, why inking in Illustrator often fails, Procreate vs. Clip Studio Paint debates, and the frustrations of dealing with overconfident commenters. He also discusses lettering, favorite artists (Chris Samnee, Cory Walker, David Mazzucchelli, Jack Davis, Russ Wooton), and his new Patreon with in-depth tutorials and monthly group inking workshops (first one with Ed McGuinness pencils!).
