I need your opinion in this bl, slow burn, fancomic thing I am doing (but everyone please give it a read before dismissing!)

[Aleksei]

Hi people!
It's me! Aleksei!
You may know me by webcomics like I Want Something More, the NSFW BL comic Graduation Goodbyes or the fancomic from some old DC Comics Superheroes The Young All-Stars Special!

Now I am here to check the waters. As I have stated before I want to do a slow burn, bl comic mixing Over the Garden Wall and Gravity Falls. Yes, I know, its not a very original setup, but I need to do this to practice the webcomic format, colors, and the idea I came up with its cute, so why not.

With that in mind, I give you at the bottom of the post the 1st part of chapter 1. To read it do a right click and open it on a new tab for full size. Every chapter has 5 parts, and I can submitt each monday a part. I have already written the 8 chapters it would take the comic, but I would like to know if someones its interested in reading it.

So, beside the vote, please tell me what you think of what you see! Can you read it? The pacing is good? Do you undertand what it says in the title logo, or should I change it? The colors are nice? You would have my infinte gratitude for the less than 5 minutes that it would take you to read the comic, post something and vote.

• Yes. I crave for it.
• Nah. It's been done.

Thank you for your time!

tbh I'd read anything you publish !!!

but this looks good to me so far :))

Yup! Looks okay so far.

• I can read comic (on computer).
  Possible typos?: "Here IS where I want to be" and either one "solve THIS RIDDLE" or multiple "solve THESE RIDDLES"

• Overall can follow along with the story. Got a bit confused with the surprise camera flash and Dipper closing the door on Wirt, but can figure it out. (The bluebird is a delight!)

• Read title as "the Dimming Lamp Post", but I could misread the "D" and "L"

• Colors are cozy that would work well together with slice-of-life feelings, but that might vary with story's tone later. Not getting too much clues that there's a more mystery going on like with Gravity Falls or Over the Garden Wall, but the comic just started and I do not know where it is going

Anyways, nice work and luck with your comic!

@delladz Thank you very much!! Maybe you won't be that happy when I reach the chapter with poetry and a song in it. I am not good on that xD

@lizardlullabye Thanks for all the feedback! -typos: Yeah, english its not my first tongue, so it happens. I always try to do my best to have the least of them, but meh.
-Confusing parts: Really you had difficult on the same parts where I though it would be hard to read, and had to complement to make it understood, so I am happy to know that they are readable anyway, nice!
-Title: Yeah, its The dimming lamp post! I am not very good at title OR logos, so this is the most sensible part of the whole deal, haha! Good to know that at least it can be read =D
-Colors: Nice! I wanted the colors cozy and to keep them that way in the overall read. Having the colors transmit one feeling its one of my goals with this project, actually =O
-Mystery: Yep, this is the first strip, so there is not much info about what mystery we are talking, but it really doesn't matter xd There is a bit of both worlds inside, and depending if you watched the TV series, or comics, there is a bit for everyone.

Thanks for the comments!

I like the overall color tone. It is comfortable and consistent.

[Aleksei]

Thank you! Its always a challenge for me to do colors n_nU

[lizardlullabye]

Also the outfits are nice. Here's some fanart of your fanart.

[Aleksei]

Oh my! They look so cute in your style!!
Well, if I had any doubt about doing the comic, now I don't xd
