Good point, I should have mentioned you can also use Inkscape to do the entire logo design, which is a free open source vector program! Oh, and I mean to completely redo the logo with Illustrator's brushes. This is just a working logo for now haha. AI has really nice brushes for this type of desi…

If you aren't experienced with logo design, it's best to keep it simple and choose a nice font. You can get plenty of good free fonts from Google Fonts or Dafont.com (with Dafont be careful, because most of those aren't licensed for commercial use. You can filter results by "100% Free.") The nice th…

:two_hearts: I am such a sucker for character-driven stories with a lot of emphasis on relationships. This is probs why 90% of what I read is realistic fic lmao. :two_hearts: Witty dialogue. Honestly make me laugh/smile and I will keep reading no matter what. :two_hearts: FOOD/BAKING! Okay, I love to cook/bake myself and after rea…

This cover is breathtaking!! :heart_eyes: Also, of course novels are allowed. :smiley: Your artwork is magical and your color scheme gets across a very relaxing, ethereal tone. I love the crystal fragments being used to frame the scene... altogether you've created a lovely composition. Your logo is very well done too…

Absolutely love the composition! The artwork is lovely. I find that the silhouetted figure in the bottom right corner is interesting, but should that really be on the volume one cover? If they are introduced later, why not just make them start to appear on the vol. 2 cover? That way, you could push …

Thanks for sharing! Your art is really on point here, but I have some suggestions for the composition. So, with these ensemble adventure fantasy type covers, you usually see a very centralized, almost symmetrical composition. Here, I am observing that your figures extend to the horizontal edges of…

These are both gorgeous covers, and superb examples of covers that rely on bnw and negative space! What I love about them is that they are visually AND emotionally interesting. They grip you in a way that a horror genre comic cover should. Thank you for sharing these!

Thanks for sharing! Yeah, I think you've really hit all the important beats with this cover. I love the little detail of using yellowish-orange since that is a dominant color in indie comedies (in color psychology, yellow signals happiness, excitement, friendliness and optimism). I also love the log…

Thanks for the great tips! Yeah, it's also important to consider how tiny these covers are when people view them on desktop and mobile, so you have to make sure your main subject(s) stand out and the cover isn't TOO busy. LOL same! Part of why I made this thread is because I really fudged my fir…

I love the cover art for this! It's very well done, and you did not skimp out on any details which is always good. I think you should keep this cover for a long time, especially since it seems you've put a lot of work into it, but I will give you some tips for the future. So, a mystery genre comic…

Heya, I'm creating a coming-of-age comedy/drama. Here are some webcomics I'm currently reading and loving!

Hey ya'll! Since Tapas rolled out the new cover feature for everyone, I wanted to hear some of your ideas and also get a solid list of tips & tricks for making a successful, appealing comic book cover. So please leave your thoughts below! Here are some tips I've come up with to start: ALWAYS look…

Aaa, this is me to a tee! I don't like doing commissions, because I am a perfectionist and it's also just difficult for me to draw characters that aren't my own. How I eventually got into doing a few commissions is actually a fun story. I'm a Big Brother US fan, and I drew fan art for my favorite co…

It's totally normal to feel incompetent when you're first starting. The thing about creating a comic is that you improve QUICKLY. From your art, writing, paneling, etc. The more you stick with it, the more you'll start to feel better about your creation. Plus, even professionals suffer from impost…

Very beautiful work and powerful sentiment. I'm creating my own webcomic right now centered around dealing with loss, anxiety, and self-isolation. It's also lighthearted and comedic, so think in the vein of something like Steven Universe. Thanks for checking it out.

This might convince you: The Tapas staff and algorithm prefer vertical scrolling comics. Your comic has a FAR better chance of trending and/or getting staff picked if it's vertical. And, that's the tea. Personally, I do both. I want my comic to be in print one day, so I start with the traditional …

I really love this concept! I do weekly updates right now on Tapas because I feel like its better for growth (you get a big spike in reads/subs whenever you update, so you want to update as often as possible, and as consistently as possible). On Webtoons, I update monthly because I know the readers …

This is the last finished piece I've done (other than comic work), it's an outfit swap between my two main characters! :smile: [image]

If you really don't want to have "that conversation" with your family, you can definitely get away with mirroring the comic on smackjeeves or tumblr and they won't notice the difference. Trust me. But, you could always just leave it to chance. The odds that they'll even click on the other comic are …

I know that there are some younger readers on both of these sites, but honestly the dominant demographic you're looking at is more ages 11-18 and beyond. That being said, the best children's media is that which can also be enjoyed by grown adults! Writing for kids doesn't have to come off as immatur…

Oh gosh, I love drawing food! It's a lot easier than drawing people in my opinion. My current comic KAI is very food-centric (as it partially centers on an Italian family :joy:). It's just a matter of using references and simplifying. It's important to learn how to render different substances, from oily …

Thanks for posting this! I can't wait to go through this thread and check out all these stories. :grin: I'm Rani, I just started my webcomic KAI this month and I am eager for feedback! It's a high school comedy/drama. Thanks for checking it out if you do. :heart:

First, your artwork is phenomenal! :heart_eyes: This webcomic would be worth reading on visuals alone, but your story also really draws me in. The world building is very unique and there are a lot of themes and hints you've dropped in this introduction that I want to know more about. I would love to read this! …

Mine is @rsqueenue! I post a ton of art for my comic there.

Hello hello, I'm Rani (or Queenue) and I'm a new-ish webcomic artist. I was big on writing when I was a kid and all throughout school, which is where I came up with most of my current and future comic ideas. My comic Girl of the Moon is an adventure fantasy. I started posting on both Webtoon and …

A style is definitely a crutch when you never bothered to learn the fundamentals or do any life drawing. You have to know the rules in order to break or bend them. The reason people point out these mistakes are because they look off, or ugly, or tread into uncanny valley territory. Nobody goes to pr…
