I'm a beginner artist trying to figure out how to make a proper comic.

I always think of Ava’s Demon which is so gorgeous but like, since it’s a single panel comic it’s been running for like 7 years and like 3 things have happened maybe and there’s already some major problems X’D I’m interested in the story but like...that slower than usual progression makes it so hard…
Link your comics! I really want to get to see some comics and im really interested in seeing different art styles and genres. All you gotta do is link a comic series to me and any other readers. I will most likely see everyones post
I don't mean like calling your character baby and doting on them but being so afraid of something bad happening to them to the point they can't even joke about the character or say something bad about them because it tears the author to shreds. Even writing conflict in stories is a massive effort to…
Let me just say first, your art will never be good enough in your own eyes. You are your worst critic, and that's just how it is for all creatives. So get into the mindset that you will always need improving, and move on. Those thoughts will only hinder you from creating anything. Someone, somewher…
Getting followers in general is an extremely difficult task and like it or not no one will really see your comic at first. You should use that time to just go crazy with what you want to do because no one (and you included) will see your art as enough. When it comes to planning, just choose somethin…
Lof of good advices here. Also: always remember that you HAVE the RIGHT to drop/delete/redo any project your working on. You don't owe anyone and if you start something and is not pleased with it, you can re-start or change projects as many time as you want. You have nothing to lose from starting yo…
Oh... BTW this has been used before, but I believe it also has some relevance to this as well. Something I made also to remind myself. [image]
This is how I started. Making screenshot comic from a sandbox mobile game. Only 4 page long. Now I have upgrade my skills and making this stick/boxmen comic. But just as the most advice you got here. I’m doing it, and I love doing it! Good luck, and please post your progress.
When I'm overthinking whether my art is "good enough" to make comics I always think of other mangakas and how much they've grown in their art styles throughout their series. A good example is Kamisama No Iutoori Ni. [image] This is the same character but one is his first introduction in chapter 6 …
One bit of advice I wish I took before starting my comic was to attempt a smaller comic first. It doesn't have to be long, it can be a chapter or a one shot (something simple preferably), but it'll give you time to figure out how comics work. By the time you finish it, you may have a better handl…
this is a big thing in comics that you need to unlearn. comics are long and intensive, with about 6 drawings a page - if you spend hours slaving over each image, youll never get anywhere fast. you need to be able to embrace finished over perfect, and to know what to prioritise in your work heres…
Maybe try a short comic or a few strips 
that way you can get experience. To me it would be worst to do nothing, because you can't learn form what you haven't done.
100 % agree with this! You will grow soo much as an artist working on a comic. I am using my current comic as a learning experience, and in the few months I have been working on it I have already learned soo much!
The best way to start is to pick up a pencil and put it to paper. Your first comic will be your worst comic so might as well get that out of the way and get going
Try not to be too nervous, but I totally feel that! I've only started uploading since October myself and taking that first leap is intimidating! I'll feed a few recommendations that can maybe help getting started easier tho: Regarding your art... It'll never be good enough, so feel free to star…
I'm exactly in the same situation as yours. Furthermore, those questions you asked for I've already asked before in this forum. For us beginners, if you have sufficient story timeline, best just to get it started. We can improve along the way, as we keep learning how to tell better story with better…
Hello everyone , so basically, I've never drawn a web comic before but I'd really love to give webtoons a try, however, I find it's so hard for me to find an appropriate art style. Everytime I start drawing a panel I get too invested and the next thing I know I've spent 7 hours shading, lighting, bl…
(THIS IS AN OLD THREAD. MOST OF THESE TIPS NO LONGER APPLY TO TAPAS. I'M KEEPING THESE UP SINCE IT WORKS FOR OTHER SITES) I've been a creator on Tapastic for about about nine months now, with a decent, expanding, yet young series under my belt. And during my time here, I've realized that there are…

I don't want to criticize any one single comic that does this, only the habit that I keep seeing re-occurring in modern storytelling but especially in comics, manga and web-comics. Bear in mind, these are issues are mostly present in high concept stories, but occasionally can be seen in other genr…
