Client

Self-Initiated

Here are covers for my webcomic "Americus Video," with them also being available as products on Redbubble and Zazzle.

"Americus Video" marks its grand return in 3 years with a severely violated fairy tale, along with a new method of comic creation. The method in question is the software Krita. I got inspiration to use new software after traveling to the Anime Superhero forums after the release of the first Mulberry issue in 2024 on Platypus Comix. On the forums, creator Peter Paltridge revealed that he switched from Photoshop (which I also happened to use for my webcomics at the time) to a software called Clip Studio Paint. He later elaborated on it with a July issue of "Free Spirit," saying that it had more time-saving techniques compared to the Adobe software.

For the 11th issue of Americus Video, "Decimation," I took an altered photo of light falling through tree branches and added a great red squiggle to the front.

The cover for the seventh issue of "Americus Video" named "The World's Greatest Insole." This cover has nothing to do with the story its for. It's a photo of a Rita's Water Ice reversed and solarized in the style of a Man Ray photo.
