And... done! Front and back cover, all printed (for now on the home printer), folded and stapled. I'm thinking about submitting it to the @platformcomics short comic contest. Maybe ask local coffee shops and comic stores in Cambridge, MA to display it?

Cover Inking work in progress for my short comic 'The Tiniest Garden' #wip #makingcomics #kyotogarden

So, with the help of Scribus and PDF have printed the first samples. Once I have created the cover, it's off to the printers! Thank you, @patrickyurick for the excellent online course at coursera and the wealth of information at makingcomics.com. Also thank you @svslearn For your podcasts, I learnt a lot during the long hours of lettering and inking! #makingcomics #perpetuallearner #soproud #neitherfinishednorperfect

Having recently taking up #makingcomics again, I realized that having smoother and faster sketching skills would be helpful. So, at the first possibility, I went for a coffee at @darwinsltd and discovered @coyneworks art on the wall. Which reinforced my wish to get better at sketching! #perpetuallearner #foliageishard #finishednotperfect #sketchingcambridge #cafesketch

I copied my originals and am currently trying out what pens / line weights work best for me and the subject matter. Technical pens for architecture in the background? Medium nib for characters in the foreground? It's fun and challenging and I am enjoying the process. #inkingcomics #enjoytheprocess #makingcomics #kyotogarden #kyotocafe #thetiniestgarden #creating #coursera #societyofvisualstorytelling #patrickyurick

Started inking a mini comic on how I built the Mamezen garden with Tatsuhiko Kobayashi and Tatsuomi Ikeda. #minicomic #japanesegardens #inking #kyotogarden #creating
