Anyone feel embarrassed reading their older comics?

[Vanzish]

I don't! When i look at the comics i used to draw as a kiddo, it hits me with nostalgia and as bad as the art was, i love looking at them again. Got about 2 notebooks full of comics i used to do with my back then best friend ^^

[niinasalmelin]

I mostly don't but dear god there was this edgy angsty teen pace.... I'm so thankful that I didn't upload them anywhere in the internet :'DDD But I love the stuff I came up with when I was a kid. No cringe at all just love.

Never mind embarrassed, more like ashamed

[carloswebcomic]

I literally cringe so hard that my teeth fuse together.

[BraveHeartTatsumaki]

I laugh then cry whenever I read the Final Light prototype, cause whooo I was so proud of my art until few months ago in which I changed my style, learned some techniques and also learned better narrative, I just- screaming internally

My first few chapters on my current series are just down right embarrassing, art-wise and just some key moments where I perhaps had a lapse of judgement. I've gone back and edited a few glaringly obvious mistakes, but if I get into the mindset, I'd be forever redoing bits.

Funnily enough, I'm not too harsh on older fan comics (as bad as they are), the art was somewhat consistent throughout because I didn't deviate too much from the source material I guess.

Mostly it's the art that makes me cringe. Heck even for older chapters of my stuff that's currently active. I'm surprised that I still get subscribers to Raven Wolf the first chapter is just... not very well done art and layout wise.

I get embarassed reading my older chapters.

[demthorshie]

All the time! I haven't felt embarrassed to read any of my older pages from Cosmos Song because that stuff is still relatively new. But anything older than maybe 5 years, I shutter when I look back on them! And when it comes to my earliest work, I flat out can't look at them with a straight face. I end up laughing at my own old, horrible attempts of my first comic xD!

[Ringarune]

yeah XD I never got past the paneling stages, but I did get pretty far into developing a story 5 years ago... so bad.. SO SO BAD... the plot, art, and characters were just really flawed, and honestly, I don't think I was ready to start a comic at that point.

[R.n.P]

I never uploaded any of my older works but any time I see my old comics I always realize I've come a long way from how I was to how I am now.

[shaylafarley5]

I have tons of old comics that I just stopped working on, most of them with more than 100 pages.
But I love going back and rereading them, if the story was good enough I would go back and rewrite it/draw it.
And comparing my art to what it was is HORRIBLE! A few old pieces can be found on my DA account.

my 1st official webomic I made was 10+ years ago, host in keenspace/comicgenesis. It got around 100+ pages before I discontinue them due to various of reasons. The current webcomic I had in tapastic was a prequel from the one which I made 10 years ago. The quality obviously very different and plot are very childish yet bold + interesting.

YES, I FEEL VERY EMBARRASSED READING THEM!!! YOU R NOT ALONE >////< But thanks to it, it motivate me to do the current webomic and the old one is going to be my precious treasure. I do had plan to remake but maybe its better to complete the current one 1st.

[niczchan]

Not embarrassed... But I just find my drawings inconsistent from the older comics that I did from the current ones~

[mckarenart]

Haha yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!! I usually have 2 reactions to my OOOLDER comics:
1-"Lol, I suppose it is really funny if I laugh so much time after writing/drawing it... THIS IS GOLD"
2-"WTF how I was supposed to think that this was so great, killmenowplz"

From all I save something, indeed, and dependid how good/bad it is, I always have the possibility of remake.

[sunnyray]

Yes, every time I finished a comic and look over it I hate to see all this mistake I made. But even more I hate the thought that everyone else see this mistakes and fails, too. -___- ;

[dragonfly_kites]

Omg yes! The very first serious comic I ever did was so cringe worthy. Almost everything was spelt wrong and I was so impatient to get to the good stuff that I literally skipped huge sections in story. It basically was horribly written. I still have it though in all its terrible glory.

[Mharz]

Not exactly embarrassed but more like I'm laughing at how bad I was at drawing. I dig up my old comics from time to time and it helps me see how far I've improved. Sometimes it gives me some ideas too. There's nothing I can do to change the past anyway, and redoing stuffs will be just a waste of time (Tho I was guilty of doing that back then. LOL.)

[Stickers]

Oh gosh totally.....I made my first comic in Sophomore year, it was a fan comic of a video game (Digital Devil Saga) aaaaaugh I gag every time I look back it lmfao. I also made a yaoi comic at one point....I cant bring myself to even look at that one.........

[TheVoidchildProject]

Not at all actually, I don't know if this is rare. To be fair, I've not been drawing for too long and Voidchild is my first comic, but I feel like I've come along way with my art. Mostly I feel content to see my own development.
