What is your weakness?

[LadyN]

When I’m explaining my characters and story and the world they live in, it sounds like I’m trying to summon a demon.

[33rdCenturyCaveman]

What, you wear robe and hold up candle?

[LadyN]

Yes, and I talk really fast. And by really fast, I mean really fast.

[33rdCenturyCaveman]

Ah. In my case me talk too slowly. And in monotone, because me am used to thinking in text.

[Iris-Grimoire]

Inking. Making sketches and planning out backgrounds is difficult, but fun. Cleaning that all up is not.

Writing-wise, I have a hard time making scenes or dialogue short. It's like pulling teeth to cut things and not get scared the message won't get across, and sometimes I find it easier to make whole new scenes so I stop getting attached to X event in the old one.

[SuperRazz]

Really really cringey dialogue. I need a lot of edits before I could find it at least half decent

[Freemints30]

Weakness? Making long elaborate backstories and background info on my characters. Because when I write them 60% of it wouldn't transfer, I suck at implementation. And spelling and grammars I need a spell checker.

[Psychobott]

I can't even draw a freaking nose. I entirely understand you. XD

But hey! I actually checked out Hexameron. You have good art. I'm into horror, so I'm probably going to dig into this.

[AbelDraws]

Keeping the story secret hahahaha I'm a disaster at it. For years I kinda gave up on the idea of, someday, actually drawing my comic, so, if I drew a scene at the end of the story that was super emotional and spoilery I just posted it because, hey, no one's going to read it anyway, I should just share my art.

That + the fact that if someone asks me something directly I tend to just tell the truth without thinking it twice makes it hard to now spoil anything hahaha. Thankfully, since most of my interactions with the readers are writen, I have time to think stuff through and not let spoilers run free x'D

[Psychobott]

I feel you. I tried writing a short horror story, and I looked into it and I asked myself if it was even a short-story.

[elyss]

I know right? You find yourself wanting to poke at every character and every environment and then you have a novel or a trilogy and you're like 'not again...' The struggle is real.

[Psychobott]

Damn right, I feel like there'd be judgemental fingers pointed at me for that gaping hole.

[Psychobott]

DUDE... I choked

[Kelheor]

Hahah, always relatable
Thank you! I sure do hope I have some good art, hope you will like the story

[Psychobott]

I can't even get my dialogues long, like:

"Hey. How you doing?"

Girl tucks a strand of her blonde hair behind her ear, slightly swaying her hips as she stares flirtatiously at the boy. "I'm good, how about you?"

"Good."

awkward silence

[Psychobott]

You get too attached, and now you can't leave your own story.

[rajillustration]

For me it's just focus. I get excited about a thing for a little while, and then I want the next shiny thing, and like...I gotta finish the projects I start because I get too many projects to juggle at one time.

[Iris-Grimoire]

God, description or dialogue is bad.

How are you doing? Oh I'm fine, except this event a few pages ago to make sure the reader remembers it. Huh, I have this opinion about the event that gives characterization about me! Well good for you, that reminds me of this trivia about me/my backstory.

It never ends i just get too obsessed with organic exposition

[sartinjacqueline05]

Nice to meet you!

My weaknesses: Perspective in my backgrounds, unusual poses for my characters, staying motivated and sometimes my story telling. So far people have told me my comic's story has been good so far though so im doing my best to keep it that way. Same with the rest.

[Bishmuth]

Uh... that's probably a long list.

I really struggle with noses for some reason. Then there's the obvious ones, hands, backgrounds etc. I also sometimes draw my heads way too big, but the beauty of digital art is that you can adjust everything, so usually everything isn't too off in the head size department.
