My least favourite trope is the "Hyperactive quirky """"ADHD""""" character". As someone who actually has ADHD it physically pains me to see this trope. It's already such a misunderstood disorder and the media's representation of it does more harm than good. Not to mention it just minimizes the actu…
Psychological horror, experimental, urban fantasy, sports, short comics (I don't know what the right name for that is!), magical girls, tutorials/educational, romance tags that specify what type of romance it is?? There's way too many genres that really need tags and I can't even think of half of th…
-people breathing down my neck while I'm trying to draw -people asking "is that you???" whenever I happen to draw a character with the same hair or eye colour as me (or the same gender, doesn't matter what they look like, people will automatically assume it's me if I'm drawing a girl....) -telling m…
Sorry I don't know the comic you're looking for. Maybe you could try searching any words you remember from the comic description or ask people who read similar comics?
The sword (at least I think that's what he's holding so correct me if I'm wrong) is throwing off a lot of the perspective with the character. You have the sword going upwards but with the way the rest of the drawing is, it should be coming towards the viewer. Sorry I can't help much I'm on my phone…
I've had severe clinical depression for about five years as well as ADD since childhood, so actually getting anything done is like pulling teeth. For working on comic/art/writing related stuff I usually wait until I'm in a apathetic or somewhat neutral phase, then I purposefully deprive myself of an…
I'm not religious by any means but... I'm pretty sure there's a special place in hell for people like that.
I'm an art student so I kinda have to take film classes whether I want to or not, but I've found that studying cinematography really helps with drawing sequential art (comics, story boards, etc.). It really gives you a stronger sense of how to arrange panels and perspective/angled shots of scenes or…
By cafe do you mean like a cafe with tea and coffee and stuff or do you mean a restaurant? I can think of dozens (can't remember any names though unfortunately) of Korean comics with cafe settings and one with a restaurant.
I'm gonna somehow have to juggle candy hand-out duty (since my lazy parents refuse to do it anymore even when I'm busy...) and finish five final projects and prepare for mid terms and eventually cry myself to sleep. Then immediately after I'll regret not going out and doing anything Halloween relate…
All of a sudden I just started getting replies on a topic I created almost a year ago. It's not really something I care about much anymore and the people who have posted on it recently are just self promoting. It's kind of annoying getting notifications on really old posts and it would be nice to b…
I think my worst pet peeve is when an artist complains about their original art not being anywhere near as popular as their fan art. This is a legitimate thing to be upset about, however I always hear this from artists that 1. Began posting only fan art for years and then suddenly posted original ar…
I remember watching this a couple years ago! I didn't expect it to be any good but I was pleasantly surprised.
SPOOPY DAY OF THE THIRTEEN!!!! DAY OF THE FRI! MONTH OF OCTO!!! (This is the day I live for)
So I'm gonna need some new entertainment to help me de-stress after midterms, and I'm looking for stuff that's more underrated/obscure that I probably haven't seen already. So feel free to recommend and talk a bit about your favourite pieces of media here! You can recommend comics on tapastic too! …
If you need some cheering up or just some fast happy music to listen to, go listen to 2am from the GameCube version of Animal Crossing or Athletic from Yoshi's Island. You won't regret it, but you might hate me when they get stuck in your head...
As morbid as it sounds, the type of characters I find easiest and most enjoyable to write are the ones who have given up on life or used to be considered prodigies but are quickly being over shadowed by everyone else. I'm a little ball of sunshine.
Because reality is terrible and fiction distracts us from the inevitability of death and the endless void of suffering.
Cheesy shoujo romance manga and harem anime. For some reason watching/reading anything in this genre when I'm sick and feverish instantly turns it into top quality entertainment.
This isn't exactly recent (dropping a series is pretty rare for me since I'm pretty good at finding series that I like from beginning to end), but about two years ago I dropped attack on titan. I liked it at first, but after a while the manga just got really repetitive with killing off characters so…
Some comics just look a million times better when they're printed, especially black and white ones imo. Also it's nice to have a hard copy because then you can read it whenever and wherever you want, whereas with online/digital copies you have to rely on a device to view it, the battery of said devi…
If I need something to keep me motivated and awake for days without sleep I just play every Eurobeat song in existence at max volume.
Love triangles that's aren't actually love triangles! In other words, person A can't choose between person B or C. This happens especially in YA novels and harem anime. How a REAL love triangle should be imo is the following: Person A likes person B Person B likes person C Person C likes person A N…
You definitely can not judge a comic based on only 3 pages (unless it's like a slice of life comedy thing where there's a different comic on each page). I usually read 2-5 chapters (depending on the length of the chapters) and if I still enjoy it after that time and want to know what happens next, I…
I only enjoy them when they're actually written well. Too often I see people completely misunderstand the trope and basically just simplify the character as a physical abuser, when they're much more than that. Also yandere characters don't necessarily murder people or physically harm the object of t…
Please stop arguing on this thread please n thank It's really annoying getting 10+ notifications of people arguing and going off topic.
Man, if I had a dollar for every time I went on to the Internet and found someone mentioning "you say run", I wouldn't even be on this planet anymore. I'm curious to see how this is gonna work with comic pages though...
Personally I like references as long as they're subtle and not in every single page/chapter. Sometimes if I'm reading something that has a super obvious in-your-face reference it might make me think "hey, you just reminded me of this thing that I'd much rather be reading instead of this". I think c…
I've had this happen to me a few times in my life, and honestly every time it's happened it really took a toll on my self esteem and motivation even though I know it's a stupid thing to get upset about. I think the first time this happened was when I was around 10 and just started taking drawing …
"I've got 99 problems and art makes up about 73 of them" Yup...
