I'm Zino and I really like romcoms~

Making my comic just for fun, but I hope others can enjoy it too.

wait, what happened to your rec? ;_; i didn't get chance to go read it yet!!

So yeah, nothing again BL and GL and everything between but I'm in a mood for some good old hetero romance. and while tapas is full of those (isekai ones...) I don't wanna read pro comics, but the free ones instead. So if you have het romance comic, post here and I'll go through it and leave some co…

Oofuri!!! At least give us season 3, it's been 12 years :sob::sob:

Too long :sob::sob: i have 10 chapters almost done and only now the cast got fully introduced. Plus i have like 3 main characters who all have their own stories... Oh yeah and been making it since 2011, made all the way to chapter 8 before redrawing everything in a year and half OTL I hope to finish it before…

For me i just keep losing subs everytime i post on webtoons haha :'D bc they promoted me last year in some event i got like 2k subs in one week, but after that i don't actually gain new readers whenever i upload, i just lose them :stuck_out_tongue: on tapas i have fewer subs but i at least gain them regularly (even i…

Yeah i wouldn't worry about those covers, besides isn't it totally normal to make your cover a bit flashier or with different coloring technique? I think it's more important that the cover is drawn by you, so the characters in the comic will look about what you'd expect just by seeing the cover.

a couple or a couple of idiots, idk... [image]

for me it's, aside from finishing like 3-4 chapters, making more extra content and uploading it on social media (sobs), reaching a next (big) even number in subs and just generally not taking longer than a 3 week long break from making the comic this year. ^^

I barely did any planning :''D well i had doodled the main cast beforehand and put down some stuff i wanted to happen in the future and how the cast relationships were gonna be, but then i just... started drawing right away. Even today, i can't even write the script beforehand T_T. I just put down a…

No, because i have a full time job so squeezing, what, 60 panels a week on top of that sounds like a nightmare for my shoulders. Plus then I'd worry that what if i run out of ideas while deadlines are approaching etc. It's much more relaxed just to work on my comic at my own pace and take breaks whe…

all my scenes are probably only funny in my head but viva's version of a love letter... [image]

Like others said it, sometimes shoujo girls were just too... girly or doormats for my taste so bl was something fresh. plus i like all sorts of "forbidden love" stuff (age gaps, romeo/juliet sort of thing etc.) so of course i liked bls which had the whole "omg but we're both boys we can't...~~" thin…

probably not the first idea i had, but the first completed comic i made was a football doujin (torres x villa) for my friend's 18th bday because we both liked spanish national football team a lot and shipped those two lol

I'm unsatisfied with my linework -_- also anatomy and form or whatever they call it is stiff. I know more practice is needed but i really have no time without going to hiatus OTL

i usually work on my comic 5-6 days per week for 2-4 hours per day. Sometimes more, sometimes less, depending how tired im after work. I could update once a week, but im trying to create buffer for future so now i update once every 7-10 days about 4-5 pages at once. I also edit a webtoon version out…

Tales of Zestiria is the best tales game (though i haven't played some of the early ones bc they aren't available). MC is adorbs, party is fun, skits are fun, some amazing music, it's fun to play as anyone, and the plot and twists are better than what most tales games have. Plus even though most peo…

I used to make my comic with my wacom bamboo fun (i still have it and it still works even after 12 years). I used photoshop for making panels, then switch to sai for lining and coloring and then back to PS for bubbles and text. Bought csp over a year ago and I could never make comics with anythin…

Nothing. November is the sh*ttiest month. No, wait, there's Father's day but that's just extra stress bc I never know what to get for my dad orz

Also sometimes people forget to like the page, or don't read it until later and maybe then only like the most recent page. Idk, I don't think likes are that deep, sometimes I love a page but still forget to hit the like button.

Aww no :frowning: I started to upload my comic there back in 2011 and I still sometimes visit it (now with vpn bc otherwise I'm blocked) to read old comments... I had most readers on that site too a few years ago so im sad to see it go.

Whether it's my comic or fanfics I've written I've noticed that my protagonists are always a little dumb and oblivious :weary: i guess that's the only way i know how to create 'humor"...

I've been using csp for a year now and I wouldn't even know how to make comics with other programs anymore, everything about csp is just so... handy. I use the ex version bc I had a six month free trial for it and during that time I fell in love with the batch function so much, that when the trial e…

I guess the relationship between Risa and Otani from Lovely Complex is my biggest inspo. They are both idiots but they have so much fun together, first as friends and then as more.

I don't mind unusual names but if they are very foreign and long I'm gonna have a hard time learning them :'D like with some korean names in webtoons, they are often a bit similar, so I end up being confused a lot, when I'm not sure who is being talked about lol

my comic's free to read and I'm not making any money out of it, so I don't really care where it ends up. Then again I've never cared about art stealers/reposters (when it comes to my art), since this is only a hobby of mine.

Last month I made like 10 pages/week plus edited my comic into a webtoon format at the same time, but now I can thankfully take it easier. Now I try to make 5 pages per week (and upload 5 pages every 9-10 days, so I can create some buffer as well at the same time) for my re-drawn version and 1-2 pag…

it's not really a trope I guess, but I really hate when the readers are told these two characters like each other or A likes B, but i just don't see it? like I'm just sitting there asking 'why', and 'how'. Or how in the "hot guy, plain girl" etc. stories the plain girl is supposed to be something rl…

My chapters tend to be around 27-30 pages long so I usually put five pages into one episode. That way I can publish a new episode in 7-9 days easily.

Decided to try get back into drawing so I made an art insta but haven't updated it lately bc I've been too busy drawing my comic lol. Plus the app has been lagging a lot recently... https://www.instagram.com/mochimoo_art/

Yeah, that's how it works! I think tapas allows... 40 files per episode? So you really don't need to have one long file, but rather cut your episode into smaller pictures, upload them in the right order and they'll appear as one long episode.
