I just came back from the dead with my first page in about a year... tried the whole webtoon format and it just didn't work out. :') [image]
Good find! I updated the name, it'd be cool to see some other folks hop on. I totally know about the school thing too, that's when I'd always try NaNo... 
I did see that, but this is for actual comic pages versus a script. 
Everyone knows that NaNo's going on right now, but as a failed NaNo-er since 2007, I gave up last year and decided this year to sprint and do as many comics as possible. Would anyone like to join me? We're 7 days in, but that never stops people from joining or cheating by working on a current proj…
Urrrgh. I just look back at being a grade schooler and kind of miss it... cause I'd play all the games I want. Or even college. LOL
Congratulations!!
Oh no! Networking is a little different. Networking is kind of like befriending someone, but you're both aware of your positions and are not looking to become friends. If you become friends, cool. It's very common when you go to expos and cons, you're not going to become friends with a hospital di…
Yep ... change befriending to networking and you have the magic to getting a job.
You don't even have to change from being an introvert, just fake it till you make it (and you can go back to being normal once you leave the interview. ) Once you know the hiring manager or the director related to …

Go for any race your heart desires.

Do you guys count as art folk? I don't know -- I imagined the use of art skills and concepts in design and illustrating, so I shuffled it towards that. If I'm wrong, just let me know. 
So with everyone working on comics, does anyone else try to schedule time to just practice, practice practice? Ye…
It always felt like there were more students and art folks doing comics nowadays. Started to feel a little lonely out here, haha!
Hey all,
I wanted to start a thread for any of us non-art career folks... it feels like we're a rarity in the comic world, but that can't be right. 
How do you juggle the 8-4:30/9-5 schedule and making comics? Do you carve out a lot of time to do it daily or try to bust em out on the weekends? …
Shit/hell are definitely not work safe in biz casual or above workplaces. 
My biggest goal is to head to a big convention like Fanime ... and be recognized by someone. Money would be nice too, though!
I have a fear that I'll lose my job and not be able to afford to work on my comic anymore... I have free time now, but thankfully I'm able to balance everything with a great job. It's kind of scary to think about what could happen if that's lost. 
Just wanted to start a fun topic about making mistakes in your own comics ... and maybe not noticing until way later.
I wanted to start this thread because I realized last night that there's something missing in a number of comics, that I just totally looked over! Whooooops.
Cupcake > cake > pie
Banana cream pie. BAM!
We don't have too many savory pies where I live.
Never have come across naysayers, but it might be because I have a full-time job/career outside of art right now. My parents have always pushed for a money-making job and to keep doing art on the side as a hobby.
What do people get out of dissuading others? Does it make them feel better about th…
IDK, maybe it's because I'm Korean, but it does make sense. You treat your elders with more respect, and you can see it in the words we use (like how in other countries, they have more/less words for colors, etc). Now this is going off on a tangent. Where's op?!

Just out of curiosity, what did you call your siblings? By their names? I see folks in US still calling siblings by "bro" or "sis", and I call fam "mom", "dad", "Auntie" or "Uncle." Maybe it's different since we're Asian, not sure. I also pose another question: honorifics just don't always come ov…
I think it depends on the audience that you're trying to reach to ... just as a personal thing, I read tons of manga, manhwa and webtoons. When I read manga, I expect those suffixes, and when I read manhwa I expect the 'oppa' and 'unni' and etc. (Same with watching dramas.) So you're going to want t…
When I put nudity as NSFW, it's because that's what nudity is often classified under, not because of my personal views of nudity or anyone else's, but because in general, people who are 13 and under probably wouldn't or shouldn't be seeing content like that. It would be like if I sat my 10 year old …
I agree, bluefairy ... comics are just more than good art. Are there any kinds of tutorials that talk about comics in particular, e.g. pacing, scripts, etc? Good art =/= good comic.
As someone who reads a lot of webtoons ... is it possible to put some little side comic and put a note that you're working on your wrist getting better? I'd think it'd help you feel better in getting something out to your readers and also inform them that something's up, not that you just dropped yo…
Welcome! I posted way up there, but I work in the healthcare industry. I guess we're artistic ... just in a different way.
Adding another comic to the under 100 sub club ... lol. Pauthalian Adventure -- just a simple adventure fantasy comic.
I think that'd be fun, my universe can always use more adventurers.
