Are you addicted to your comic?

if it was me back in 10 years ago...yes...but now i got work commitment and went home at night where I value my spare time over other things besides drawing comic.

I'm not exactly sure if i'm addicted to Cosmos Song or just the idea of the comic. I spend so much time working on just 1 page that it's sort of hard not to think about it all the time. I'm just really excited about the future story unfolding and all. The comic is a little different from my ordinary storytelling style so i'm constantly thinking of how i'm going to illustrate the later scenes when they arrive :o.

It's just a week and yes! I love my Bomb "A" and im very motivated to work to it. i love to tell story of jokes and action and fantasy inside of my head that wants to unleash that's why i make comics.

You are just like me, you stick to a schedule. For my comic I do 3 pages of Seishin Patona then switch to In The midst and do 3 pages for that. This way I can keep the interest level between the two comics balanced. However, if someone wants an art trade or a request I start that as soon as I finish the page I am currently working on.

I've actually had anxiety attacks from not working on my comic. If I went an entire day without doing a single bit of drawing, it hits me pretty hard, especially when other people don't respect it. Of course, I did go a bit overboard with how much comic making I did a week, but it was the most fun I had doing anything for a while. So if someone comes up and says, hey I need you for a long period of time, so much so that you won't be able to do any comic making, I end up feeling like I wasted an entire day. If it's a weekend I feel much better because that's not usually when I do comic making, but sometimes I just can't go without making something. And if you take that away from me, there will be blood tonight.

Most of the time it's off and on motivation for Amy Plays Games and I'm mostly using that comic to get better at developing my skills. I'm actually more obsessed with working on the story for another comic that's been going around in my head.

THE LAST SAMURAI

I am also addicted to mine and find myself on some occasions juz spacing out as I'm making up a plot or scene in my mind.
The only times that I don't space out like that is when I'm in class and I'm really happy cuz of that.

Yep. I'll see something or experience something and find myself thinking "That needs to be in my comic". lol

thomasfallaeriksen 2016-02-23 19:30:38 UTC #30

Yes, yes and yes.
It's pretty much an obsession.

KSlinger 2016-02-23 19:40:32 UTC #31

Kind of? Only in the sense that I'm aware that the less I do, the longer it'll take to get to the parts I'm most excited about.

Well for me, I'm addicted to my future-comic. I've got a lot of work to do for school, A LOT! But whenever I can, I just draw the characters that are going to be in this comic into my sketchbook and always add more and more ideas of their background and how the story is going to progress. Even in school, when I'm supposed to be listening, I'm drawing (don't worry I'm still understanding the work at school). Plus whenever I get new ideas, I message my friend about it and he just listens, maybe add in a few ideas to make it better (there's a lot of that too). Shit I'm rambling on... uhh... basically yes.

lol I can hardly judge, I spent most of my maths lessons cartooning, I was always in trouble for it

Squeakybat 2016-02-24 03:14:33 UTC #34

Heh. I think a little addiction is a good thing! It means you're really enthusiastic about what you're working on! I guess I'm addicted to my comic, Stellar persona a bit. On and off through out the day I'm thinking up plot points, scene layout, character development ideas and trying to get them in them story.!

For Shapeshifter I constantly Storyboard at work (I work in a factory) and it has multiple times in the past got me in trouble.
Or the worst is when I leave and I forget to put my storyboards on my desk and not put it in my locker. My collegues don't really understand what I do and just make fun of me ^^; altough not all of them, some are very enthusiastic about it.

mariusthered 2016-02-25 17:28:01 UTC #36

@FixerTheWise coming from a town where most people work in factories, i fully understand. personally I think you people who can handle it need a medal. The few times I have tried that kind of work have not lasted long. Doing a bit of story boarding is something I cannot blame you for.

FixerTheWise 2016-02-26 18:12:10 UTC #37

sadly my job is best described as, vast stretches of boredom punctuated by moments of shear frustration and rage XD

kkitty 2016-02-26 18:38:32 UTC #38

Yep. 2 AM on school nights.
I literally spent a day designing the main character's design, and I can proudly say that you can see those 24 hours of thought in her outfit. It's the first time I felt like a real comic artist. I'm gonna be uploading it later today, so I'll see if people agree.
