Hello everyone. I'm trying to write but i get overwhelmed with all the theories i read about writing. I get overwhelmed with the rules and with the guidelines to the point that I don't get any writing done because of it. To all dear writers, how can i overcome this? I'm a newbie that just wants to c…
I wish I got more thorough feedback like this. Yeah, you guessed it. I originally wanted to do horizontal, traditional American comic style, TF2 comics are my main model if you've ever heard of them. I learned quickly I couldn't do that properly if I wanted to use tapas, though, so I kind of blend…
As a fellow romance consumer, I think what makes our hearts flutter over a couple in romance stories is when they did things we would like to have irl, haha. Or perhaps they show the romance fantasy you didn't realize you wished to have! I think it depends on your love language too. My favorite rom…
I think it's a matter of whether the 'slowness' is a natural consequence of thoroughly exploring all the obstacles they have to face and untangling the barriers they need to get past. 'Bad' slowness is if the author clearly couldn't think of anything else to write about but wants their story to be…
Ahhh love this, I agree 100% with you xD Although in my case I avoid it as much as I can in my comic cause the fandom for my fancomic (like, the fandom for the series I'm basing my story from is what I mean) only expects that (couples, romance, shipping) and I really want to talk about other aspe…
Yess I agree with this as well 
Though it also depends on how it's handled since I've read a few that open up too early and makes me go like 'you don't have much from knowing this person' but yes, if handled well it is a nice thing to see!
I'm not sure if I'm a fan of romance or not. I say I wouldn't put it in my stories but I'm already putting one in my main comic and potentially in one of the comics I have planned soooooo... The best relationships imo are when two characters come to accept each other's flaws. We just see issues that…
One of the most commonly thrown argument when it comes to comic art is the One Punch Man's success story. I, for one, personally don't subscribe to it. I feel like ONE is one of the few exceptions to the rule and trying to recreate his success would only lead to disappointment. Two out of three time…
For freelance comic book art, these rates are what I charge per complete page. - Cover Art: $200-$500 per cover Pencils: $100-$200 per page Inks: $75-$150 per page Coloring: $35-$150 per page Lowest to Highest based on composition and complexity of the…
Hi all, I'm just deciding to delve into the world of comic making, and want to ask about formatting. Brief backstory: I'm primarily a novelist, or, at least, I was over fifteen years ago when I used to get excited about creating. I've recently become excited again, and picked up writing an old sto…
I prefer when they have different outfits, I think it's more interesting to grasp a character's personality. When I draw characters always in the same clothes it's because of laziness 
I'm going with Ryoko Kui (Dungeon Meshi) here : a good character design is when you can put characters in other c…
The wall is the only way via Tapas that you can reach them individually. However, most readers read on mobile through the app and don't have access to the wall there, so they may not ever see your message. A long time ago, wall messages were more effective when most of the userbase was on desktop.
So I've been pretty happy with my art style wise but I can't help but feel like I could be doing more with colors. For example these are some pieces I've done somewhat recently where I've been messing around a little more with effects, filters and other overlays Summary [image] [image] [image] …
The server link has expired, could you send a new one?
(EDIT: I finally figured out how to use ArtStation's marketplace lol. The link has been re-added below. You can also find more info below that can help you in Procreate.) So. I recently made a short story using only Procreate (strictly drawing) for the first time ever and it was an....interest…
Hi! I'm looking for an artist to draw me a poster for my novel. I'm very new at this so please help me guys. My novel is a BL so it would be great if you're good at drawing male bodies. I'm looking for Japanese/Chinese/Korean style artists. Please let me know your charges along with your art. Abo…
Being able to draw and being able to draw comics are similar crafts, but ultimately different skills. You can take the world's best illustrator and ask them to draw a comic and wind up with something that is visually gorgeous but isn't telling a story. There's actually a great example of this where …
I don't think it's actually possible to tell a story in a single page - I guess you could try using a single panel to show as much as you can about the world or character and that could be a good exercise? Although it's definitely not going to have the same energy as large stories. Long stories get …
I'm surprised I actually HAVE a process, I'm usually a bit of a mess when it comes to large projects. But it basically looks like this so far: Step 0: Script out a chapter. I have a very loose long-term outline, which is quite flexible regarding what characters feature and the minutiae of what hap…
Welcome to the club! [:smile_01:] Estella looks royal! Fyi, you can add the link to your comic/novel in your profile, so it would be easier for people to find it

I just really like magical girls, and I wanted to tell a coming of age story.
Hey, also moved from being inactive to active here. It's hard getting back on the horse, isn't it? I'm currently working on comic pages too! Glad to hear you are all pushing again!
Good evening everyone, I'm looking for writers and artists for my future comic website. I've started an indie publishing company (Still doing the groundwork), and I'm looking for writers/artists to work with in the future. My first order of business is to produce some mini-comic/manga series, whic…
I did lose a lot of likes when I switched over to posting comics instead of just my regular art. However, eventually, I gained more followers. After a while, people who are interested in OCs will eventually find your stuff and even share it. It just takes a while. The people who are successful ty…
Something you just kinda have to come to terms with is that a lot of people who may be there for fanart will not crossover to original art. It's the catch 22 of fanart for views where it's great for buildling a following, but will that following stay? ehh? maybe? Like in my experience you lose some …
What I like to do is post whatever art I feel like sharing and plug my stuff where ever and however I can. If you wanna post your OC art, I think you should just go for it. If your followers don't like that, that's their problem, they don't have to follow you. If you post the stuff you like, you'll …
I'm glad to have been of help to you :3
I've been an original content artist since I started drawing. (I make fanart occasionally, but it's pretty rare.) I don't have a big audience by any stretch of the imagination, but I can give you some of the advice I've received, and what I've observed from OC artists who have made it big. Style a…
Wow, that's some epic dark gothic nightmare fuel. My novel's cosmic/gothic horror so that should fit right in!
