What is it about your comic?

[BraveHeartTatsumaki]

My comic Final Light has hone to by far many changes.
It was first a mere story, with other characters (except Hiroto, he stayed but with other hairstyle and personality), always tried to make a story about a fantasy world and magic, have action and romance, the changes had been so many I can't even tell myself, until the final product of the actual one, with Hikari as protagonist.
At first it was going to be a collaboration with a really important person for me, but we got problems, and this person literally kicked me out from the project. So I had to restart again with my comic
Though, later it wasn't that difficult to make the story again, I had to take everything I dropped and put it all together, and then retake stuff I left when I was younger.
I actually thought in just upload it in DeviantArt, but due to what I said up here plus people showing no interest in it, I only uploaded the first chapter and then looked for a place to upload comics, so my dear friend Google helped me, I think I said "good place to upload comics" and appeared Tapastic, Webtoon, and I don't remember the other one, so I clicked on Tapastic and started reading the things here in the forums, and I liked the atmosphere around here so I stayed here.
I want to share a story, I want to make people enjoy a story after having a tired day, I would like if maybe I can teach something with and give hope to someone who's in troubles.
And here I am, right now, I still don't get even 1 year but I really love this site xD

With Deepdene, I want to play with repetition, obscure dialogue, and general issues with existence. Samuel Beckett meets Beatrice Potter? That's my elevator statement. Anyway, here are my answers to the questions three:

How did you start off with your comic/ how did you come up with it's story?

I was in the shower and the picture of a shaggy raccoon (who reminds me of a certain professor) with his fist stuck in a log popped into my head. His desire for the thing in his grasp is so great that he can't move on. This seemed like the perfect metaphor for me to explore my current place in life and the things I want to let go of. You can't have your hands full if you want to reach out for new experiences.

Why did you come to Tapastic to share it?

A good friend and comics scholar pointed me to it. I was originally adding it to Tumblr in a traditional newspaper format, but the Tapastic UI is so cool on a smart phone that I wanted to try it vertically. I don't use a ruler for each frame, so you can see the lines aren't always lined up in the vertical format. I'm getting better, but I also like that funky quality for this series.

Why do you want to share your comic with others?

I really enjoyed the repetition in David Lynch's strip "The Angriest Dog in the World" and Matt Groening's "Life in Hell" series way back when. I became focused on music and dropped visual art, except for the odd staff meeting doodle. I was recently was inspired to start cartooning again by a severe bout of navel-gazing, my wife's interest in story-telling, and the documentary Stripped.

I enjoy playing with repetition in my panels - it gives the illusion of skipping a beat, of a faster rhythm than prose, and the dramatic pause as one ponders something idiotic that her conversational partner has blurted. I want to see if my ideas track with the comic-reading public on Tapastic.

How did you start off with your comic/ how did you come up with it's story?
Well, over 10 (15? dunno?) years ago, I had gotten really in to Brian Jacques' "Redwall" stories. I also got my first pet parakeet. I wanted to write my own cool medieval warrior adventure stories about my parakeet. Over the years, my story changed and grew and mutated. At about late 2009, it settled down and changed less drastically. It isn't about parakeets any more, or medieval stuff even- but it is still about animal people. In early 2014, I had a complete overhaul of my art style, which prompted me to begin illustrating more of my story- thus the idea of making it a comic instead of a novel. June 2015, I had decided one afternoon to just jump in and actually start making the comic. (Note: I'm on hiatus right now until I finish my last semester of college, which ends on December 11th).

Why did you come to tapastic to share it?
A friend recommended tapastic after I had started posting my comic on tumblr. I liked how useful and easy the features of the site were, but I decided to stay after I realized how nice the community is.

Why do you want to share your comic with others?
Considering this story has been my life's work for at least half of my life so far, I figured it'd be something to share. Originally I was going to write a series of books, but figured it would be more impactful (and easier to get people to read) if I made it a graphic novel instead.

KALWA Kalwa was a project that spawned in High School. I was digging through some old sketches and found some old sketches of anime characters I created through a phase. One was of a kid with a watch, which I recalled had time travel capabilities. I changed the character to a female and the original story involved time traveling watches.

Years later I was looking to revive the project and took my friend on as a co writer. The story was revamped to cell phones given that watches seemed too small and unrealistic. Now we are off, hoping to tell a story with some of the best settings found throughout history (Greece, the wild west, Japan, etc) not to mention the great age of movies.

Kaiju Acadmey Kaiju academy spawned from a note that I should do some kind of cute comic. That summer I had become a huge fan of Kaiju movies, so I decided to take that passion and turn it into something funny. Took some inspiration from Monsters inc and other monster settings too.
