So who wants to form a Dojin group?

It will kind of be like that we discuss ideas. If one has a problem with the idea we talk it out and work on it so that it works for everyone. Their will be a sort of leadership but not as such as "I like this idea so as leader i say this is what we do and thats that" if you get me. I will lead as a start but i hope to quickly form a collective and single unit as a group should be. And sure yup! Email me saying its you and attach a few pieces of art onto it (just so I can save them for group chats when we discuss art style) - jamestbrosnan123@gmail.com

Someone who doesn't currently work on a series before (or never has) and has not gotten any profit from creating. I don't mean beginner as in skill, more like as in if you already make a series and get a ton of money for it and have a following. This is for beginners as in, just starting.

Thanks!! Are you interested?

I'd be interested if I can join as a writer.

I think that made me more confused. I've made series before but I've never made money and the didn't get that far. I'm working with a writer on a series but it isn't a webcomic. Would I still be considered a beginner or nah?

jamestbrosnan12 2015-09-21 18:21:53 UTC #10

you would be considered a beginner.
Simply put, someone who isn't a beginner gets money from their work, but you're grand.
What i was trying to say is skill doesn't matter

How do you plan on communicating or will that come later?

jamestbrosnan12 2015-09-21 18:46:14 UTC #12

are you interested? If you are email me at jamestbrosnan123@gmail.com . Attach a few of your art pieces also so i can store them for when I bring them up when we discuss what art style we will make (as we might take inspiration from our own art styles, etc.)
As for group communication, that will come when I assemble enough people, which to me delight, we almost have

What an awesome idea. I am more talented at writing than I am at art, but I am passionate about both. Are you looking for people from similar time zones? Also, is there an age restriction for this?

jamestbrosnan12 2015-09-22 19:11:49 UTC #17

what time zone are you in? As for age restriction, none really but if i must i would say 16-20 since that's around my age also

Hehe. Everyone is excited to get folks to draw their porn. ^^

DJ's don't have to have porn at all. They're comic fanfic. But they usually are porn.

jamestbrosnan12 2015-09-23 15:46:24 UTC #21

please read the main post again, i stressed that. Hentai is porn

Jelw 2015-09-23 21:36:42 UTC #22

Doujin means fancomics, so what comic series would the doujin be from? It sounds like an interesting concept but only if it would be working on something for a series I know something about.

jamestbrosnan12 2015-09-23 22:09:32 UTC #23

Dojin's are a group of people with a similar hobby that create something together. Hentai and Fancomics are the most popular. However in Japan its the same as manga.
Easiest way to explain is the visual novel company TYPE-MOON. They were originally a group of 2-3 people that decided "right, let's make a visual novel" and so they came out with Tsukihime, which they sold as a Dojinshi. Dojins literally means self-published works. Both amateurs and professionals alike take part in it, but its mainly amateurs. Fancomics is the most widely popular type of Doujinshi, but a load of circles work on completely original projects. (This is how CLAMP first got started, by creating original Doujinshi and selling them at Comiket)

Yup! Just restating more clearly so people don't get confused. The original mission statement you posted might be a little fuzzy to the young-ins, or anyone in general.

Fan-Manga's would be clearer for a mainly US audience of all age groups. Will also keep them from perhaps accidental porn hunting.
Good luck on your endever!

He did stressed over and over again above its not porn sight? @@ LOL
