Holy shit, I'm indestructible. dives down from Angel Falls for shits and giggles

I've never used CGI comic softwares such as ComiPo but I assume the character models have rigs that you can manipulate and pose them however you want. If it as simple as the rigs on the 3D models in Clip Studio Paint, then it can be surprisingly easy to pose them. No complicated stuff like having th…

Two words: John Cena

If this involves drawing ourselves in snazzy suits or purdy dresses then I would be interested. (Never had a school prom in my life TwT ) Someone explain, please!

This question sounds as broad as "Ways to introduce a character" lol. I dunno... Every violent and non-violent way (like illness) imaginable..? And I guess it also depends on how important this character is to the plot.

Unless you're working for industries that rely heavily on digital medium like video games, mobile apps, TV and movies, there's no obligation to learn or switch to digital. Use your inks by all means if you're most comfortable with them, and I don't think anyone minds analog or traditional works as l…

That happened to me, lol. My one-shot was a school project and it became my longest comic series because readers wanted more. I don't mind it because I enjoy making it. If you're not a huge fan of the idea of turning it into a series then don't. Some one shots are meant to be one shots and shouldn…

That is a majestic-ass hamster.

XD; I'm not sure if everything worked out for the better. I have received private messages about people selling posters and phone covers with my art on it. I tried looking but couldn't find them. Ah well, it would be impossible to go on a successful artistic witch hunt so.. The least I can do is jus…

I haven't been using nor frequenting Deviantart for years so my stuff there has probably been stolen/copied plenty-three times, lol.

I love I Love You Bambette. This is a dream.

The last time I touched a sketchbook was like... 3 years ago when I was in college. cries [image] Dream and Death [image] Somethin' [image] Oh shit didn't catch him [image] [image] [image] [image] Concept art for my animation project [image] Wanted to fit in all my fave OCs but got…

This so much. It's actually a rule many Japanese comic magazine editors have when critiquing a comic since competition is tight as hell. If the first 5 (or 3 in some cases) isn't interesting or attention grabbing, they don't think it's going to be able to get enough votes from readers and make it …

I think my first darling is "Crimson90" It's a story I created when I was 14/15. It's probably the story I was most passionate about. I drew so many illustrations for it, rebooted and revamped the comic a number of times. It was an ambitious story but at age 15, my artistic skills weren't good eno…

I don't avoid it. I want to draw feet better. They're a pain to figure out but very sexy to look at -- just like hands. (And no, I don't have a fetish, lol.)

That's a very strange thing that popped up in your head XD. Are you talking about the classic movie childbirth scene with a screaming mother and doctors around her telling her to push or actually drawing the realistic but nasty version of it? Lol Sorry, this got me a little interested because I'm …

I'm putting my comic out there so it automatically becomes a form of entertainment for others. The amount of subs, views, comments and reactions would be a good indicator of whether or not it's good entertainment. Sounds superficial but I'm spending energy and time (that I hardly have) on this so ye…

Aaaall the time, man. I have ideas that have been lingering for years and there are stories that I totally want to draw. I quite like my day job and I've come to terms that many of my stories won't see the light of day... For now. Maybe when I'm done with the game industry I might just go freelance …

Here you go. [image] I need a character with a big butt.

Mmm, yeah.. While I'm stoked about the upcoming Beauty and The Beast live action because it's a remake of my favourite Disney movie, I can't help but roll my eyes a little and see that Disney is taking advantage of our nostalgia for the munnies, again. I half expect them to remake everything again…

Too bad the topic below has been unpinned: My main advice is to focus on making good or better content. Or be a little patient for results if you just posted your comic on Tapastic.

There's actually a 1975 Japanese anime film of The Little Mermaid and it follows closely to the original story, with the tragic ending and all XD I think Disney wanted something to capture people's attention by using titles of famous classics, but changed them to make them family-friendly at that …

Mhm, like I said. Find people with similar interests and make connections on the internet . The forum is a good place to start smiley

That's great! Uploading a comic on the Internet can definitely be intimidating DX The great thing about the Internet is that you can find comic creators and people with similar interests who can help you improve when there isn't anyone physically close by who can. I recommend joining a circle of c…

Besides relying on software tools, you can train yourself to be confident in making longer, cleaner strokes. You can try out croquis drawing. Quickly draw live models or everyday people within 5 minutes or less. Worry less about the details like eyes, lips, hair, clothing patterns, shoe laces, fin…

Yes, you have to practice. Yes, you gotta keep telling yourself to get better after making inevitable mistakes. But while you're at it, please have fun creating stories and comics! Don't worry if you don't finish all of the stories you make -- just try making whatever the hell you want. And they …

I noticed that people generally seem fine with comparing their own art with art by seniors and big names who have been at it for years because they aspire to be like them some time in the future. But when it comes to people close to their age or younger who appear better at drawing, that's when some…

(I know I'm going off topic but I gotta reply lol) Omg, I understand what you mean. All the angst we can shamelessly create without having a third party to judge us LOL. It's something you can't exactly do when you're writing professionally or for a wide audience, so it's a pretty damn good releas…

I think it's safe to say that some of us are masochists in that sense LOL. A friend and I did it to ourselves once when we were RP-ing. We knew it was coming, but when we wrote off a character we grew attached to, we bawled our eyes out and we were depressed for a couple of weeks lol.
