Just counted on this yesterday, i have planned 15 chapters ( but will probably be more because so far I had to split some chapters into 2) and that will land in about 700 pages... and if i do 1 page a week, so 13 years? xD but already posted the comic for 2 years in may now, phew, I dont know if its encouraging or not :sweat_smile:

But when my hand isnt hurting to much I can do more than 1 page a week once in a while :triumph:

Have been running since 2016 and will likely take 2-3 more years to finish. But at any point I might be able to increase the pace so who knows...

All of my fanfics are done and most of them took around a year and a half. As for my comic... no idea. Three more years maybe?

I decided to make my chapters a lot longer than they were - so my estimation of about 600 issues went down to 200 - 300.

But I don't see me finishing it in less than 15 years. I have a full-time job and hobbies other than drawing comics. Plus, procrastination.

I kind of thought my story would be over last year... but it is now this year and it's still going. xD (currently on episode 250). I'm sure it will finish this year though.... :stuck_out_tongue: But I seem to be bad at guessing when. :smiley:

Too long :sob::sob: i have 10 chapters almost done and only now the cast got fully introduced. Plus i have like 3 main characters who all have their own stories... Oh yeah and been making it since 2011, made all the way to chapter 8 before redrawing everything in a year and half OTL I hope to finish it before i turn 50.

Wow, I really don't know. I've only been here a short time and I think it could be from 6 months to a year. It depends on how things continue and on my creative capacity.

I just posted chapter 83 my estimate is that the story will be around 125 chapters

i''l be around a few more years i can say i have a few more chapters for the first volume,i still want to redo some of my older chapters as the art doesnt hold up , recolor a few as i have improved,after i think i'll just jump into the second volume of 12 or so chaptersr and keep going till im much older

I wanted my story to be told within 4 years so I can move onto other stories ... but at the rate I'm going, I have a feeling it will take at least a decade to tell it in it's entirety ;;o;;

Thanks for the thread. So my main series is set to end this August after a solid 5 year run over 4 seasons, and 104 episodes. I am in the process of rebooting my main series for a 2026 release date. However, as a prospective franchise, I predict the stories left to tell will continue for as long as I live :joy:.

Now that I'm rebooting and am almost done with Chapter 0, I see a full chapter takes me around 3 months.
That means that, as I am now I can get 4 chapters per year.
The story seems to be aiming for 42 chapters.
11 years for the first Saga.
There are other three I'm working on connected to thi story, so if they are as long as this one, I might end everything in 44 years.

I hope is less.
I am working to find ways to optimize my comic, and get more time to work on it too.

There's planned to be around 6 major arcs in my story with some mini-arcs in between. I feel like it'll take a while :sweat_02: especially at the pace of pages I'm going. As of right now, I'm only about a third through the first arc, though it being the first arc, there was a bit more time spent on setting up the setting and characters. But at the same time, I feel like arcs in the future will be shorter or longer, so not sure how to gauge this progress using the first arc as the basis.

But I'll do some quick maths anyways. I'll exclude the prologue as part of the first arc and say that a third of an arc takes 7 months, and assuming one mini-arc will be around the same length as a third of a major arc, I'll calculate the total comic time to be about.... 11 years :sweat_02: Well hopefully I'll end up drawing faster as I continue on.

I plan to get up to 20 volumes. Maybe more depending on how much I can flesh out so maybe it will be completed in 2032?

Oof, mine is gonna be so big haha... I definitely know Jade Kingdoms' first book will exceed 100k already, which is why I took out the entire prologue and turned it into a comic. XD The second book will not be as large, but who knows it could definitely also become a big boi.

Its gonna take me a few years though, I'm also making 3 comics sets in my novel and two light novels are planned also haha, y'all pray for me. XD

dunno, havent worked out all the story points yet

but since its an adventure comic it'll probably run for a long, long, looooong taayyymmm

but it'll be fun! yahahahahahahaaaa! KHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!!

My full story is about 35+ chapters. This will definitely take a decade but I prefer to be able to foresee where my work would be realistically in 5 years time where the internet/world may not change so much:

I want to have at least 2 acts done (13~15 chapters) in 3-4 years from now, that will be 250+ pages. The story will at least cover the 1st 'arc' properly.
