Haha..

[60Six]

Honestly, I haven't actually MADE any yet, so this topic is as good excuse as any to sit down and make some goals.

Sooo, I suppose:
-Keep up with 2 pages a week
-Finally settle on a schedule (I STILL haven't figured out which day is best for me to upload on)
-Get a Patreon up and running and meet the goals on it
-Conquer my fear of Twitter (personal stuff....) and start getting my comic up on other social media.
-Make more/new friends. I'm terrible about reaching out to people and I need more Tapastic buddies!
-Go to other peoples' live streams more
-Start asserting myself at my job more and trying to take more of a lead
-So that I can get promoted and stay at this job ahaha
-Do some more "concepty" type art to show the right people at work.
-Nag boss to get Photoshop on my computer so I can do the above : |

[efdvorsky]

I usually try to set goals as often as possible but okay here we go

-Improve in art
-Print out short comics and tiny merchandise for my first cons
-Be more active in social media and talk to other artists without anxiety getting the better of me
-Get a Patreon??
-Get over my fear and APPLY TO THE GRAD SCHOOL OF MY DREAMS. /)ò-ó(\
-Animate more
-Keep updating Cosmic Fish and Gone Fishing as often as possible.
-Start going to the gym again to reach my goal of squishing a watermelon with my thighs.
-Renew my driver's license... -cough-
-Learn to co-exist with my depression a little better and be nicer to myself.
-Move out of the island and get a job.
-Be more assertive when I get commissions and ask for money upfront because damn I keep falling for the same mistake. /)-_-

Great Resolutions, everyone!

Mine:
1) Write at least 3 more radio plays this year
2) Write and draw a short comic (10-20 pages)
3) PRINT A LEGEND (of some sort) AND SELL AT LEAST ONE COPY

(I finished colors on the last page yesterday - now begins the long road of prepping for a small print run- anyone know printers who specialize in 100-500 copy runs?)

My resolution is to stop procrastinating! And continue on my main comic, while also finishing up my two side comics that I have been procrastinating on. Also to finish coloring my book of sketches.

[Starfestival]

Finally finish Retro, move on and start other projects.

My New Year's Resolution (aside from getting fit):

• Get a review for my webcomic
• Be even more active in social media and in the forums
• Make new creator friends
• Get a table in a convention
• Finish Volume 2 by March
• Finish Volume 3 by the end of 2016
• Print Volume 1 into a book
• Manage my time properly between work/freelancing stuff, webcomic and illustrations
• Gain a Patron
• Improve my Illustrations
• Gain 1k subs

LOL It turned into a to-do list than a New Year's Resolution

[Vikiro_Hop]

more comics involving dildo jokes

[keii4ii]

I don't have new year's resolutions. I don't like placing a time limit on long term goals. I do much better when breaking them down to short term goals. So here they are:

• Keep working on Heart of Keol. Keep telling the story, even if anxiety tells me no one else cares.

• Make that damn cast page for my main site!

• REVISE THE FIRST PAGE of Heart of Keol. Seriously, I can't even LOOK at it because the writing makes me cringe. I'm gonna open that file in Photoshop and delete the text file super quick so I won't have to read that text. Ugh. The art will probably stay, assuming I can come up with a suitable intro writing that goes with that art.

• Make a certain edit from chapters 2 through 7. (quick text fix, just a lot of files to go through)

• Get ready for my first artist alley(s) in 10+ years! I've done this before, but I feel like a newbie again!

• Keep up with the exercise, but don't stop there! Improve my diet -- abs are made in the kitchen, after all!

• Comment more often on comics that I follow. Try to make them meaningful!

[dracoplato]

My resolutions for the year:

• Draw faster; cut my color page time in half
• Wake up earlier to get more things done
• Manage to regularly draw four comics
• Run an online magazine
• Keep up with social media

eheheheheh sweats:

[FixerTheWise]

Well, since it's new years I have a few things to say! For this new year I pledge to:

• Not lose my buffer for Shapeshifter
• Finish this big, "BIG" illustration I was planning
• Draw faster and not be distracted by all the video games I could be playing
• Be more active on social media!
• work out more

I guess that's it XD

[AffectedMind]

My resolutions for 2016:

• Keep working on Bite Me
• Improve my drawing skills and learn the damn perspective
• Play all the games I have!
• Start new, short series
• Get a job
• Clean my PC from all the junk I have
• Finish my giveaway for 5k subscribers (but it soon will turn into 6k lol)
• And probably much more I don't remember XD

[nicaneko]

Wow! Seeing all these posts of resolutions fill me with determination! (lol)

-Since I've just started my comic Hi-Paw I'm going to push myself on dishing out more pages.

-Improving on my art style

-Be a bit more active on the forums( lol I need to socialize more)

-And tying with the above, make some new friends!

[Shalmons]

hm, for art-related ones:

• keep the task bar OFF of new tablet monitor screen... so far it's helped LOADS with removing distractions, so i just need to resist the temptation to move it over ^^;
• fill those sketchbooks!! at least one by the end of the year would be nice!
• get all the art done for my spouse's tabletop RPG...especially since getting the rulebook published is one of his resolutions for 2016 >_>;
  (at least this one is in-progress enough to seem doable!)
• finish pokemonathon entries more regularly, ugh!
• creating "adoptables" on a semi-regular basis to stretch design muscles and cough the money would be nice if people like them enough >>;;
• not so much an art thing, but since a lot of people are saying the same thing: socializing...even if just online >>;; my social anxiety is pretty bad!! who knows, maybe working on that would help with art too

[shaylafarley5]

Coloring is my biggest issue too. I can sketch 5 pages or more in a day but coloring take me at least 2 days :/

[Wolven_Sister]

HAPPY 2016 EVERYONE!

• Keep working on Between the Realms even if it kills me.
• Finish 40 page one-shot for client.
• Try more coffee places.
• Explore more of my surroundings.
• Get a booth at Senshi-con this year.
• Promote Moonlit Dawn as much as I can, spread the name, build the audience, send to book reviewers and get at least to Chapter 5 published this year.
• Try to attend local pagan gatherings and meet like-minded individuals, maybe make a friend or two.
• Get script done to send to agent.
• Release at least 1 new series this year.

[purrlpankras]

I don't really do those. I think in the terms of JUST DO IT!
