Story and emotion are always more important than realism -- but whatever rules you establish in Act One of your story should not be broken lest you fall victim to DEUS EX MACHINA

Remember that you are descended from apes that could barely form sentences, and they managed to survive long enough to build cities and make up all sorts of silly stories and religions. Don't worry, you'll be fine.

How short? How many pages? Edit: Or how many panels? (If you plan your stories in panels).

@Campbell_Million I love your passion! Could I see some samples of your own animations?

Most of what you're quoting is bad feedback because it's not constructive. They're giving you nothing to build on. My advice: find better beta readers.

Five years. Do you have an idea? Great! Have you honestly tried to make it work for five years? Great! Is it working? No? Drop it! :grinning: If you have any other ideas that are five or more years old that you have not properly worked on, drop those too. Trust your mind to come up with newer, bette…

You caught me at a most convenient time. I'm already working on something and I might submit it to this contest. Depends on whether I can polish up the first draft in time. Either way I'll have a complete manuscript by mid-March.

Everyone has sexual desires and fantasies, that's fine. In the real world I would never hook up with anyone I didn't trust. No judgement on anyone who does that, you're no doubt having more fun than I am. I just consider having sex purely for pleasure to be empty. Just as an asexual might consider s…

I think it conveys the right kind of creepy vibe of an overly-idealised "angelic woman" and fully embraces its anime origins. It's off-putting in a good way.

Based on your screenshot it would take just over 14K impression to make $1 (approx)

Usually watching people discuss writing on YouTube or hearing them discuss it on a podcast reminds me why I enjoy it so much and then spurs me to write.

WARNING OPINIONS INCOMING: I like it overall. The colours are nice and the anatomy seems solid. Perhaps you could work on the pose, one of the arms seems to be doing nothing and she's just standing doing nothing. About one-third of the image is blank and empty and I think this is a no-no in t…

The quality of the art and the narrative are definitely more important that the art-style but the style determines your identity as an artist and there are a tremendous amount of artists who are not really attempting to carve out their own identity. They are trying to draw things exactly like Disney…

Quick feedback (Ep01 Pg01): 1 Positive = Lines and inking are wonderful and very striking. 1 Thing to work on = Starting the comic with "There are two kinds of..." is VERY cliche. It's okay to use tropes but avoid overused tropes that have become cliche.

I've never owned an iPhone before but I just assumed it had the chrome app in some capacity. I must be wrong. :blush:

Go to "settings" and under "People" you can sign into the browser directly. Then just use the same browser and account and things should carry over.

I use google chrome and I sign in to the browser itself and I think that carries my cookies and site data across different devices.

Okay I do like the adjustments you've made because they speak more to what you want your story to be. But.... When a mage-prince's kingdom and power are ripped from him by nature's <<<[1] interference he <<<[2] is forced to flee, set upon by his own subject's <<<[3] greed. Unable to harness t…

WARNING: I am not an expert. With a synopsis you want to engage emotionally in order to create interest, It doesn't have make the reader feel a strong a emotion (bonus points if you can do that) but using "/name here/" feels non-comittal which makes me disconnect from the story a bit. I thi…

I'll give you some advice that I should really be following myself. Most people will tell you to put a portfolio together but you should go one step further. Carefully plan a portfolio. Decide on a specific theme for the portfolio, turn making it into a project. Plan out each piece you'll be putting…

I like it but it would infringe upon Transformers copyright.

The Forgotten Truth The Forgotten Revelation Duggan Tries To Wake Up Duggan Isn't Real

I have an idea that I want to make into a screenplay but I might also try and do 50K for NaNoWriMo. I would love some feedback on the idea. I call it: Death Escapes Her (or The Mechanical Lych) In the near-future, an ailing engineer loses her brother in a mugging. When she tries to raise him…

I know what you mean. I think if your art-style isn't distinct after about 15 years of serious development and/or study then you should examine why and try to change that. It comes from artists not challenging themselves. There's an artist I follow on Deviantart who is fantastic at drawing anthropom…

I feel like the TOS is more like "Here are the powers that we and our team and moderators are afforded; we hope you don't force us to use them" rather than "The TOS is the absolute law." It's all about discretion.

What kind of work do you need done? Roughly how much could you pay per page or per hour?

I'm a stickler for the rules so technically I have to give this to @sarrowsmith10 eventhough there were only three entries :blush: This part of @rainbowolfe utterly charming and weird entry pretty much secured her second place. Drum roll..... @Heliox14 your entry was very good and I don't wan…
