How I draw my daily webcomic on my website

I go over the process for how I draw my daily webcomic I post on my website.

I've been drawing this comic for about 4 years now. It's a diary comic called "Then This Happened..." I think of something that happens to me each day and I try to express it in four panels. No punchlines, just a slice of life from my day.

In the video, I show how I use the program Medibang Paint which has a feature to create the panels automatically.

Then I write out the text for each panel and the drawing settings I have been using on my Samsung Galaxy Tab A with S Pen.

Creating a lyric video

How I made a lyric video from an old news segment I found. I needed a lyric video for my song "Friction tango" I recently created a lyric video for a song I released, and I wanted to share a post about how I did it.
