Which is the rudest comment you've seen in your comic

Questions

See this is why it's eventually going to be worth it, because it also brings people together -- I wouldn't have met you otherwise. This sounds as if I could have been the one writing your reply because I wholeheartedly agree! It is a major problem right now which is why I am very relieved to see ot…

Convention organizing!

Events | Challenges

If anyone is Los Angeles or Southern California based, there are a ton of anime cons, comic cons, and general "Art Walks" or print/book fairs and pop-up collectives to go to. The LA Art Walks are monthly and it's much better to split a table with another artist. I think even if it's small it also d…

How long can I be absent from Tapastic before the comics I'm subscribed to get penalized?

Questions

I've never been absent for long periods of time from Tapastic, but since I actually just went through my massive reading list and found a ton of comics that I'm subscribed to that haven't updated for 2 years, I think that it works both ways. I think despite how many ghosties you have, as long as you…

Which is the rudest comment you've seen in your comic

Questions

As a lot of other creators are saying, running an LGBTQ+ comic has its challenges... My worst comment has to be this one that quoted some identities I featured and then said: "Jesus f**king christ you are cancer." Someone also recently told me "f**k you go to hell" because I posted the Tipping…

Got a Tipping Comic? Share here!

Events | Challenges

I uploaded my tipping comic this week! You can definitely use the artwork. I would love to be able to respond to at least the top tippers! The user who is at my top tier does not show up on the desktop format for me (unless I hunt them down in my thousands of subs) so I have no way of accessing thei…

How harmful is it to change pen names/usernames?

Questions

Thank you, Ratique! I really appreciate that! And that's a great point with the web avatar, especially because artwork and comics especially are so visual.

How harmful is it to change pen names/usernames?

Questions

That's what I really believed too! I actually thought of you when this issue was coming up for me because I remembered you changed your name, and that since I followed you closely it didn't matter.

How harmful is it to change pen names/usernames?

Questions

Hey friends!! I haven't been vocal on here for awhile, but I've been silently reading posts every once in awhile and always enjoy how much feedback we all give each other. I was hoping I could get some advice and/or start a discussion about changing or altering a pen name that is already in existe…

What are some good tags?

Questions

I believe it is, but mainly on the computer instead of mobile? And I don't think many people know to do that unless they've hunted through the site for awhile

What are some good tags?

Questions

I don't think most people use the tags how they're intended to be used here O_O I write the weirdest side commentary in them that isn't as essential for people to read like the caption and are just jokes or some random thought about the page. There's always a few people here who make sure to read au…

Looking for good LGBT+ comics

Questions

The entire point was to say that it's a matter of preference, and there's more things to fight about whereas this is a term that most people don't even understand enough to use derogatorily. That everything is all okay. I didn't see any mention of you two also being trans, other than Milou who wro…

Being afraid of disappointing readers

Questions

I definitely can relate! A large amount of my comics' meanings deal with pain and tragedy, and not everyone can tolerate that. I'd say that you have an opportunity for something really cool if you have something shocking and not pleasing to everyone, because more often than not, word gets around …

Looking for good LGBT+ comics

Questions

Okay peeps. I am a "real life transguy," in contact with a lot of fellow FTM's/transguys/transmen, etc. Those are words used to described the transgender experience, and not the person as a whole, and therefore is not usually offensive (if used in a non-transphobic way) but of course varies from per…

Your most influential OC

Art | Comics

I love this question! Out of all my OCs, the one I knew the least about when I came up with him was Erik: [image] What's so interesting about this to me is that he is now absolutely my most complex, plot-important character and holds the weight of the series evenly along with my other MC (Arielle…

What do you love drawing about your characters?

Art | Comics

I think out of all of my OCs, drawing Tyler's hair is the most satisfying. It's so unusual and has movement/body in it which I like. I also love my characters' simplicity for CNS, and when they're drawn well (which definitely isn't always) I enjoy it immensely!! But honestly, drawing the accessorie…

Am I doing this right?

Questions

If you don't want to do life drawing.. I also think starting from the skeleton and then learning muscle groups really helps immensely. You can learn to draw it in simple forms from lessons like Proko on YouTube or the Atlas of Human Anatomy for Artists. Once you learn the skeleton, you can place mus…
