Just wanted to say a quick thank-you to everyone who's checked out Octo-Samurai.
The next upload will be the conclusion of the series. I learned so much in the process of creating this comic. My day job is teaching art and I started the comic as an example for my students and I ended up enjoying it so much I would draw comics between classes and freelance art jobs.
After Octo-Samurai I plan to create more comics, in fact I'm working on a new comic biased on my experience as a teacher and all the craziness that comes with working with kids.

I finally released the last of the flashback for Octo-Samurai. In addition I recorded the process of its creation. It was a pretty lengthy process so I am going to release the process videos.
Here is a link to the first part.

I'm back, working on the next episode of Octo-Samurai. This is going to be a flashback to how everything started. Im also using this opportunity to try out a new style for the flashbacks.
I'm always learning new things and improving my skills so I try to incorporate that into the comic when I have a chance.

Hey everybody, I have another preview. Octo-Samurai is my first venture into comics so I aim to grow and take risks with each episode. I'm in the process of coloring the pages now so it won't be very long until you get to see everything.
Hey guys, thanks for subscribing. I am in the early stages of working on the 2nd episode of Octo-Samurai here is a spread of sketches for a really epic illustration that you will see in the next part of the adventure.
Looks great! I look forward to it!
I'm new here and to making comics . I just shared my first comic. it's about a Samurai-Octopus who fights ninja underwater. Check it out. Any suggestions or critiques are welcome.
