A Notice from the Creator: Delay on 'Beach Babes' Episodes

If you haven’t seen already the first four episodes of ‘Beach Babes’ are available to read on the Webtoon App or Webtoon.com. Please go check them out if you have yet to already. Episodes are updated on random Mondays. Though I must apologize for the delay on Episode 5, having been advertised as updating Monday June 26th. Clearly that is not the case. As mentioned on the webtoon update I am all hands on deck, solely. I do not have a team of people working on this comic as it is a passion project and does not pay my bills. I hope that you can forgive the delay as I get personal family matters squared away. I will no longer preemptively advertise episodes with a certain upload date unless it is for a holiday specific episode. That being said I hope you had a wonderful Juneteenth and a peaceful 4th of July. Thank you for reading and your patience. In the meantime please enjoy this preview of a panel from episode 5.

On A Roll!

We’re getting closer and closer to the goal date of the “Beach Babes” comic going live. It is my first time drawing a comic and my first time writing a story. It is very scary at a times and I’ve found many artists feel this way but it is also freeing and something I feel I can be proud of once I put it out into the world.

There’s definitely a lot of learning as the process continues. As an illustration graduate I’m unlearning things as far as not showing so much communication In a single image but using comic panels in a sequential nature to tell the story. Focus on the many, not the singular. So here is a look at a couple of panels before color is added. Here we have Zoe and Reese getting out of the car on the left and Liam getting out of the car on the right. I wonder what event they’re heading to dressed this way. This is an example of simply paneling to introduce characters prior to plot as we are going to stretch the story out so you as a viewer have something to read each week. I apologize as you’re probably used to “binging” in most streaming services. Gone is the idea of ‘waiting’ and patience for a slow burn but I promise you there’s more to come!
