“BD” refers to Franco-Belgian comics, but let's open things up to include ALL Euro comics and GN's. Euro-style work from around the world is also welcome!

* BD = "Bandes dessinées"
* BDT = Bedetheque
* GN = graphic novel
* LBK = Lambiek
* LC = "Ligne claire"

Please DO: 1) follow good 'netiquette' and 2) the four simple rules of lemm.ee (this instance) when posting and commenting. As for extracts, they're fine, but don't link to pirated downloads.

The designated language here is English, with a traditional bias towards French, followed by other Euro languages.

When posting foreign-language content, please DO include helpful context for English-speakers.

As an art-fancier and someone who dabbles myself, I've always gotten a kick out of the creation process, from "thumbnail" to penciled page, to an inked page, and finally a fully-colorized one.

I spotted these two pages on Tumblr yesterday, I believe from the English-language volume Good Golly, Mr. Goof!

...and combined them in to the lead image at top. Color makes a world of difference, non??

Now I forget who posted them exactly (whups), but you can skim Tumblr's BD stream if you like. It's quite nice, featuring lots of stuff I haven't gotten to yet, plus a good amount of stuff I've never heard of.

Ah, and some previous examples of the page creation process below...

EDIT: Imgur currently screwing up the content of the next two, whilst preserving the third. 🙄

NOTE: Hey y'all-- I don't know how it is for you, but for me, any page that leads with an Imgur pic needs to be manually clicked to view, such as in the first two links just above. In other words, for me it won't show up as a thumbnail that can be 'popped open.'

My working theory is that the problem was introduced in Lemmy v. 0.19.7, which is what this instance is running. (you can check it at bottom of page)

Now maybe-possibly this is fixed in 0.19.8, but I'm not sure. If you can see the thumbnails yourself, could you reply with which Lemmy version your instance is running? Thanks! 😃
