I get compared to 6 billions Demons a lot, my art style I guess, my sloppy way of trying to convey information.
SO, I got inspired and thought I'd try to 'speed draw' a comic page. But even so, this took me three days. Which is a huge bummer, I was hoping to do three panels a day or something.
It's too much of a time sink I think to be worth while, I tried every trick I could think of, lol. I used restricted pallet, didn't shade much, hard edges lines so I could floodfill work to speed up the coloring. STILL took days. WARG. I dunno a solution :P
ANYWAY, I know it is a bit boring, but was a fun test for my 600th image too! Thanks for following me all these years, it means a lot to me haha. I'm a loner in real life, I only have the people I work with, when we return home I pretty much stay alone in the woods for months or even years at a time. So having an outlet online is nice, thanks!

IMO when your main goal with a comic is storytelling, monochrome and simple shading or a cross hatching technique is the way to go. Cut back on the backgrounds too. There's just no way to make significant progress otherwise when you're making something solo. Fortunately I actually think your drawing style is particularly well suited to make that kind of jump. If comics are something you really want to do then it might be worth making a few test pages in that kind of paired-back style to see if it's going to get you the result you want in much less time.
