Area(s) of Interest or Expertise:
Adobe Character Animator, IT professional. I am not a very good artist so I use computers to cheat a lot!
My Testimony: (We encourage members to share briefly about how their faith in Christ has impacted their lives.)
My series title, “Extra Ordinary”, is about making the Extraordinary Word of God ordinary in your life. It should be second nature, not something unusual, hence the name “Extra” ordinary. The episodes are meant for outreach to make the Bible less “scary” and more a source of wisdom.
Dream Job: (If you could have your dream job in the comics industry, what would it be?)
I am really interested in the intersection of comics and computers. There are lots of tools around making it easier to produce comics, but quality and creativity still seems to take sweat and tears!
Favorite Comic Creators:
I watch a bit of Japanese Anime on Crunchy Roll.

Hi, Alan Kent! It's been a while! Thanks for the compliments! : )
Although I recognized almost all of those titles, I haven't seen a single one!
This is my list:
Boruto, any Naruto Movies, HUNTERXHUNTER, Inuyasha, Hikaru no Go, Sonic X, Little Witch Academia, Speed Racer, and Rurouni Kenshin. That's not even covering all the Anime movies!
Hey, Mr. Alan, What Anime shows do you watch?
Welcome to the CCAS. Thank you posting some of your work. Looking forward to knowing more about you. If you live in the Southern California area there is a monthly meeting of the CCAS the 1st Saturday of each month. May our gracious Lord and Savior richly bless you in the knowledge of His eternal love.
Hey Alan
Sorry the mess in the last part. My suggestion is to go for with Slice of life.
Regarding the software, you can use two better ones for your characters called Clip Paint Studio and rpgmakerweb. There, they have 3d characters templates you can use to create your story. Find below the links:

About the background, It is ok to use 3d templates but you need to study lightning in order to integrate the characters with the environment. Have you watched the anime called "Your Name"? Study its backgrounds lightning.
Hi Alan thanks for your comments. I'm glad you liked. Ok, regarding your work, if you don't mind if I comment here, It's very good. Although is necessary some improvements in some areas. And It is not my intention to look like as a superior person here. I 'm just trying to help you.
For example, the lettering. Try to use professional fonts like comics or manga use. I attached the one I use here and It is very good. CCComicrazy-Roman_0.ttf
The anatomy needs to improve as well. You are very talented but you make some anatomy mistakes (which is very normal, everybody does that). Needs to dedicate in this area. If you have the chance to acquire the book

It's the best in this aerea. Study it every day.
Do u use any software for the background or do you download the images? And is not necessary to put background on every frame, specially when you have a close up and the character is saying sth important.
Use this Slice of Life" / "School"? "Comedy" / "All Ages" to Webtoon.
If I can help you with anything else, let me know.
Best
