Artist, professional procastinator, lover of raccoons & red pandas, very much genderqueer. I ask a lot of questions and ramble a little bit too much- but i write a comic about cute queer children trying to survive the zombie apocalypse. https://tapas.io/series/Case-012

I'M BACK on this thread only to reccomend the manga "My lesbian experience with loneliness" because i just finished it and its really, really good and touching work. it doesn't deals only with sexuality, but with feelings, self discovery, acceptance and depression, and its a really short read (5 cha…
thissssssss this is very important! i'm starting out with a five chapters max story to settle the world and characters for a better/ more fleshed out narrative that ties in with the first comic, but i remember first envisioning HUGE stories with lots and lots of characters and no time limit determ…
i've never seen this break up method before but it sounds like a very neat way to separate arcs :0 page count isnt something that looked like a problem before, but it could be the reason why i think the pacing isnt working as much! and your tips- they're also great! i feel like tackling the broade…
i definitely benefited from this- its nice to see how the short description translates into the finished episode with added details and dialogue, its something i do quite a bit and i always thought it was a wrong approach but if its been working for you for so many episodes it must not be a bad deal…
Personally, it's the scripting part. I'm no stranger to narrating or writing small stories, however when i do they're always lenghty narrations or full with small details that translate better to a reading experience than to comic panels. when it comes to the pages or thumbnails themselves i always …
I noticed most of my threads are quite literally always what-it-says-on-the-tin, and this one is no different. First, when i refer to discontinuing i generally mean dropping a comic, or little by little forgetting it exists. Its a fairly common problem at least on my friend circle and i admit its…
i like to think that to achieve your goals you don't have to only work hard- you have to work smart. let's pretend someone tells you to build a tower, and you spend hours and hours sweating and breaking rocks and trying to place them together, hard work. that tower could have been built much more ea…
one more thing that i forgot to address but here it is: Third wheel character madly in love w/ one of the protagonists, painted as evil/ mostly rich/ will-do-anything-to-steal-that-person this falls in the love triangle one but is also a problem of its own when a character ONLY exists to cause tr…
AGGRESIVELY COUGHS AT ALL THE ROMANTICIZING OF KILLING STALKING really sorry for namedropping but the amount of literal children i see swooning over it makes me REALLY concerned- and since its raise to popularity comics with the same themes/ edgy shock value have started to pop up and skyrocket
i thought this would be fun to ask, feel free to drop your personal opinion, here's my list of pet peeves: thrill of the chase (story simply ends after the couple is together, aka, happily ever after, no 'here's them working around relationship problems' i mean i enjoy the buildup yes but don't L…
the deal here is that not every representation is good representation. if you dont know how to write a diverse cast, have no experience, or dont live with them/know any of them, dear god thread carefully. you can really, really mess stuff up.
LOLLL this is so tru oh god,,, tbh the only examples of this i found that rly pissed me off were from comics written by ppl with no sensitivity or experience whatsoever with nb/trans/ace/aro people like, they kept pushing more characters into the story so theyd have lots and lots of LGBT tokens whil…
for Zildren : A friend of mine simply said one day "ok but what if we created a roleplay group about kids kicking zombie ass with nerf guns and quirky gangs" and from there onwards things just got better. (SADLY THE NERF GUNS WERE DISCARDED :(() we went thru a lot of changes, but we passed more than…
This has already been said a few times here, and honestly so far this thread has such good responses. The real issue when it comes to these kind of comments: "too diverse" / "too gay"/ "too many girls" /"there's no likeable male characters"/ "did you make all of them ugly as some kinda sjw statemen…
Added mine to the list and voted on all the others!!
"Ugh you know zombie apocalypse is SO overdone"
what it says on the tin! Has it been a paid job, or for free? Do the authors contact you first or is it the opposite? i usually see these but artists usually contact people they know, and i'm curious in how others did it, and if its a fun job, or good for your/your partners comic :0
i dont know if anyone has talked about One yet, but hey, One punch man and Mob psycho 100 anyone?? or better yet! Homestuck. the three are wonderful examples of webcomics that started with pretty crappy art, as all fanbases agree, but they had something different and special- the writing, gags, a…
i'm just gonna quote your reply a thousand times because so far i think its the best approach here. i think what we really need is an update on the guidelines for comic icons and comics themselves, because we dont have the right nor the power to do it, as the first quote exemplifies VERY well!…
i usually take 2 days per page, but i dont do only one page per time. if i'm not distracted and in good form, i use 5-7 hours to line 2 or more pages (4-7 panels each w backgrounds sometimes?) and rest!!! on the second day, again 5-7 hours, i apply all base colors then shadows and finishing it up!! …
If this post came off as simply a 'lets shit on BL fest' then i apologize, because that was really not my intention. I usually try to type my threads casually because i'm not a formal person, and ive discovered on the internet, being overly formal is sometimes seen as scary (you can check my other t…
Im actually laughing bcos even though i didn't mention any comic names (and ive been here since 2010 hun, this isnt about a SINGLE comic or only bl. I used bl as an example bcos its the most proeminent one lmao) you're accusing me of starting a witchhunt on some... friend... of yours? Also congra…
UGHH Exacty... unfortunately the app crashes often for me : (
*Edit n.1: for obvious reasons i have to add yet another disclaimer up there. this is not only about bl. this is about nsfw comics in general being all up in our faces in featured sections, daily, without any way to filter them off. bl is hugely mentioned because, lets address the elephant in the ro…
If the focus is LGBTIA+ folks and their stories, and youre marketing for them first and for the others second- include the tag. If lgbtia+ folks just so happen to be in your comic, but you arent marketing focused on that group of people- i say just let ur comic be and people will see for themselves! …
So my previous thread ( http://forums.tapastic.com/t/the-infamous-your-comic-sounds-like-this-other-thing ) has made a few very funny and ironic responses Which brings me to this idea— post a link to your comic, and right below that, just roast it. Or make a really wacky summary for it, just for f…
EXACTLY THIS good lord
Frustration is a really big deal because, add a certain amount of it, a little stress, not much helpful feedback from community = authors dropping their stories. I know people who went back and started their stories from scratch thanks to the whole 'your story got this in it that other also has' and…
