Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I also can't draw noses.
They're just all related to Beedle.
WOW!
I get this reference.
Better off just drawing the nose holes IMO. Maybe a little line. Also : why the pig pink in the nose but not on the face??
But then again, those kind of things are usually so that you recognise the comics.
I recently got a tip from a friend, that drawing just the shadow a nose creates (so kinda a skewed pear-like shape) looks much better than the sharp lines people usually use for noses.
This is good advice, from the front there is no outline for the nose (except the nostrils), so if you only do outlines you have to be creative.
Usually the light hits from one side too (if you think about lighting), so you'd draw only "half the pear". Looks better IMO but both goes very well.
just make a upside down 7
We call that an L
no see an upside down 7 has a bend in it a L straight lines
Needs a sharper "angle".
