The Bigger Fish

Party Planner

At my desk. tapas.io/aqua03

Just an average artist wanting to make comics and learn about storytelling and how to better his skills in said medium.

Don't forget sliding into peoples' dms to bug them even after they've been told they don't want to talk anymore as well....

Yeah, the finer details in between the big sort of "Beginning and end" sort of deal is what I struggle with. Especially given I want to write fantasy and sci fi adventure stuff. I'll have to look into NightCafe, thank you.

Star Wars Sequel Trilogy if it was good.

I definitely feel that as well. Honestly half tempted to just start with episodic "Problem of the week" style stories for the various characters in the Dragoons, both heroes and villains, until I can fully kick the struggle and pull things together enough for an actual narrative.

Yeah, no kidding. I especially struggle with the "Middle" parts of a story or worldbuilding. Like, I know how I want a story to start and how it should end or where a character starts and where I want their arc to end, but come down to the drilling into "Well how do they get from here to there?" a…

Thanks! Glad to hear from you, too. I have fiddled a bit with AI assistants and tools, but have had mixed results from just how... Samey they can come off as no matter what I give it if that makes sense. I do like to use image generators to at least "Ideate" a bit more, but I try not to rely too m…

Imprtant scientific discovery for @Aeroyeen [image]

I redesigned Zephyr the other day. [image]

I honestly enjoyed how weird the setting was. Shame it didn’t last. (Seems to be the curse of a lot of manga I enjoy. Great worldbuilding and premise, meh story.)

It's a He. [image]

Cute mascots if it's legit.

[image] Oh yeah, I made a comic with my OCs.

Y'all ever decide to spur of the moment start overhauling your art style? [image]

Ah, cool. Always dug that sort of 90's Capcom Arcade/Megaman design. Really big influence on my own style tbh. It's fun.

Is that OG in the top sketch?

Another bio card done. [image]

Bro's been working hard at the gym. I don't blame him.

Bro's activatin' his ultimate super power: The U L T R A T - P O S E in the top drawing.

Finally knuckled down and may a reference for one of my characters for my comic. [image]

Sounds like a good plan,. Excited to see what the future holds.

Speaking of: We ever gonna get another Cursed Meme contest like we did a few years ago?

This is a certified hood classic

Bro I appreciate the attempt at a redemption arc, but you really gotta leave people alone, too. Because it kinda comes off as stalker-ish with you hunting through all their posts and like them in an attempt to be more active + reviving old DMs after you've been told to not DM people as well.

Well, you can say you can draw hamsters once you've drawn them. Practice makes perfect after all.

Go for it and follow your dreams, dude. We all need real hamsters in our lives.

Turns out that as of now, this thread is the first Google Search result for asking about making ap roduction roadmap for your comic. So... That'scool.

That's some good fluff my man, thanks for drawing him! :ok_hand: I still love how you manage to capture motion and energy in your works.

Oh neat. I eagerly await that.
