I have to say that I agree with @shazzbaa that the "default" race, however vague, does not necessarily have to be white or Caucasian. Your story does not have to be historical or modern fiction in order to tell a story starring a black, Asian, or Hispanic person--you can choose. As a Hispanic male…

Hey everyone! Newest page of Beast Bait here. Classic horror movie opening: [image]
Ha! Yup, I wasn't creative enough to give myself horns or a big fluffy beard or a fedora or anything. 
Hey everyone! Once again I feel like I've "graduated" -- I started out posting on the "under 50 subscribers" thread, then a few months later I met that milestone and posted on the "under 100 subscribers" thread, and now I'm at 106 subscribers and I am finally posting on this thread for the first tim…
This. I definitely agree. Don't give up! Keep working on your art, your story, get better! Write for yourself and for your target audience, and it WILL grow.
You guys are the best! @jorissweyen, to answer your question, I have been posting my comic since January of this year with three updates a week. The first couple of months were very slow--at the end of February I only had 17 subscribers. However, March, April and May were very good months, with ab…

Hey Elm! I checked out your series you have on this site and I'm intrigued, but would love to see more samples from you for different styles, do you have a link to any more samples of your work?
Hello everyone! Latest page of Beast Bait: [image]
I very much agree with you here. Artists are visual storytellers, and what works for one collaboration doesn't work for the others. I would urge writers to not attempt to thumbnail or sketch or provide direction on the art, instead they should ask for the thumbnails and sketches to be provided and g…
Hey everyone, I've been following this thread just around the time I've been looking to hire an artist, I put up an advertisement for an artist on here and on reddit, just curious if you guys think the ad I placed sounds OK? It's my first time looking for a collaborator so I'm hoping I don't sound l…
I voted for everyone today and it worked! Woo hoo! But that site is running very slow...
Hey @wr4ith0! Thanks so much for replying to me on this question. Web presence is something that continues to confuse me. You're not the first person who has told me about the possible issues with my website. So because of that, I figured I'd re-do my website and give it a more traditional look an…

I did this guest art for @MylCreates' Hacheeachkee , (I hope guest art counts and not just fan art!). 
Also, I know that a lot of creators put their fan art on their profile page where like you said it gets buried. When I get fan art, I always go ahead and put it in to my actual comic as an extra …
New voting link for Beast Bait for the updated TWC site: http://www.topwebcomics.com/vote/20208
Yeah, I was also surprised to see a lot of answers saying "it updates too frequently so I'll never catch up!" I think this might be a good theory but since I don't fall in that category (I like giving and seeing frequent updates personally) it makes me wonder...
@CyndiFoster OK you win. These are incredibly awesome!!!!!
For me, I'm a native Spanish speaker but I've been fluent in English and in America for the last 25 years, so I just go with the essence of what is being said. I have one character who curses a lot, so I try to use a lot of Panamanian dialect in the cursing to get across the meaning and not trying t…
Hey Heather! To start with, I'd love to know how many pages of buffer (or is it already completed?) that you have in store before you get ready to go. Also, is Tapastic going to be your main site or do you have a main site that you will be posting on, and use Tapastic as a mirror? My advice to you…

I can tell you that from my personal experience, I remember when I started uploading the first three weeks and I had maybe 9 pages up and I kept thinking, "Why do I have only 10 people subscribed?" I started trying to get my work out there and noticed. I read all the "How do I get more subscribers" …
Hey everyone! Latest updated page of Beast Bait: [image]
I use Bristol Smooth 11X17 art board, the special one made for comics with all the blue-lined guides (only a couple extra bucks for that type and they carry it at my local store, so why not?). I like it for three reasons: 1, it's thick, 2, it takes ink really well and resists smudging, and 3, I li…
Looks like Issue #4 for June is out and I LOVE the fact that you featured Beast Bait in it!! Thanks so much again for the marvelous opportunity!
OK, time for my own confessional: my very first comic, when I was in high school and drawn on NOTEBOOK PAPER during class (seriously) was about a superhero named (I'm not kidding you) Punk Spike. He was punk because he had a Mohawk (I guess) and his power was that he could make spikes out of his ski…
lol I just thought of this thread today when I did a regular update and 20 minutes later lost a subscriber... makes me wonder, wow, is this page really that bad? Especially when I'm getting close to 100 it feels like every loss is a stake through my heart... who I am I kidding it feels like that no…
