This is a good and necessary posting that I’ve learned a lot from. Thank you so much for posting this. I’ve got a few comments.
1) Getting started was excellent advice to new creators. Most new print media cartoonists are advised that just finishing their work is more important, but since these are web comics, that rule doesn’t apply. A web comic cartoon series can theoretically go on forever. As for me, I keep a text file that has all of the different pixel dimensions to easily refer back to.
15) New ways to innovate. I’m new to digital art and the use of color, and I am slowly developing the techniques. These are things that I need to work on
17) About being put-off by other’s artwork. There are plenty of excellent artists here. It’s very easy to feel kind of discouraged comparing yourself. As others have said, many times it’s more important to tell a good story. Your art gets better the more that you do it, so draw, draw, draw. It will get better and easier the more that you do it.
My hardest part is having any kind of scheduled, promised, posting of my comics. Sometimes it just flows one page after another, and I need to just get them posted and out of the way and onto the next page/episode. Other times, there’s a writer’s block, family obligations, or too beautiful a day to be inside drawing.
