Greys… don’t like the looks of them… whole lotta trouble, if you ask me…
The start of Akira Toriyama’s career has proven to me that comic-making is, actually, truly doable by just about anyone who takes it seriously like a job and who has a clear idea of what a comic actually is. This guy didn’t even draw before he tried to do manga, and he just looks at what manga is and doesn’t kid himself and makes some of the greatest just by doing it. It is, in a way, easy
Progress post for progress post’s sake.
Absolutely. Our only limit is ourselves. ;-;
I think it’s about taking yourself seriously. Do you want to make an actual professional comic, or are you just settling, telling yourself it’s okay in your sense of furtive comfort, that you want to be a hobbyist with his cute little personal comic he made for ‘himself’? Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but is that what we all really want, and did we all actually make that decision consciously? Or are we all just some type of shy, without ever thinking about it
I have a real job with good benefits and infinite job security, a home in a perfect location, and money in the bank. Having to give a shit about what people think about my comic and my public persona just in order to make a living, sounds like hell on Earth. This way, I get to make what I want, when I want.
Nta, but
>This way, I get to make what I want, when I want.
This, absolutely this right here. Perhaps not so much "when I want" but certainly "how I want".
Works for me, that’s genuine hobbyism which is great. I’m just saying how many people here are keeping their comics in poor quality because they’ve committed to not being very successful? How many people are limiting their effort and actual drawing ability (or focus on drawing better when you’re actually drawing) because they figure they want a comic that only has a neat 8,000 followers or something? I think even hobbyists can do better work that more people like without it being cowtowing, the secret isn’t appealing to other people, the secret is just not be kidding yourself when you sit down to make the best page you can

Started posting the arc finale now. Will take a while but it's a very intense and action packed chapter.
I think that's an interesting question. I think becoming popular with art (and even more webcomics) requires a different kind of skillset and will than just drawing.
I try to give it my all, but the comic is poor quality because my current skills are poor quality.
Someday I hope to sell the whole thing in tankobon form, though realistically the only ones who would buy are /hyw/ people with money to throw around.
Speaking of, what is everyone’s long-term goal here?
>only has a neat 8,000 followers
>only
>8,000
excuse me what
See you need to aim higher than even 8000 if you’re taking yourself seriously! You can do it just for yourself, that’s fine, but are you really challenging yourself to make your comic the best it can be, and a real full-fledged comic worthy for people to read, if you can’t even create it thinking 8000 people might like it?
>realistically the only ones who would buy are /hyw/ people with money to throw around.
I'm the only /hyw/ person with money to throw around, and I have never given any of you a cent.
Happy April Fool's, guys!
Here's our little special chapter for this Day of Tomfoolery!

https://tapas.io/episode/3141412
I really, really love how the text flows along in the page. Like a river splitting a land.
I wanna use the comic work as a way to showcase myself, while also developing my skills and experiment while receiving feedback on it as well. I want to move to other industries outside of comics, but if I could make a living off of it, I don't complain either.
Looking real neat, good going Anon!
Nice! Good work
>This guy didn’t even draw before he tried to do manga
ok ill bite. which interview did you get this from? in manga theater he says he drew and ignored manga for a long time.
Ah you’re right, he said he didn’t draw manga but did draw
Shut the frick up Betz. Apocalypse Knight will never have readers

Forgot to post last week
I've been thinking of making an action comic some day. Next week's Arlokk has cool mangaish panels
Here's hoping Arlokk uses his evil guile and wins.
this week's Arlokk made me chuckle
Good stuff
Apocalypse Knight #1 is filled complete! If you didn't like our release schedule, now you can read the full issue, start to finish in three spots:

I made a comic fan dub and it was very fun to do. I want to do more. Give me comics to fan dumb

There are some I like that I want to do but they're way too long. so send me shorter ones (under 50 parts please)
I’m trying to finish coloring pages for this chapter as best I can without sacrificing too much of the quality. I wanted to finish it before March but that’s not happening, debating on trying out a “release page by page” format. Here’s a peek of Montana Sunset Ep. 2 https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/montana-sunset-the-hobo-samurai-/list?title_no=714929
Pretty slow at the moment, but I am close to completing this chapter.

Really digging the artstyle here
On hold while I make a coomer comic so I can fund my Little Caesar's addiction
Nice art style
You went and damn made the flower stem a sounding rod? You are nasty and a good tease, I like you
>How's your webcomic?
Pretty alright so far. I have the panels for the page 2 recolor finished, just need to actually put the page together.
For new shit, I uploaded the WIP to /aco/ since the main focus is a sex scene. Only comments were bait from a certain homosexual, and someone suggesting I took too long getting to the story. Since the sex is part of the story (Lily's sleeping around for food and shelter after becoming homeless), I added some panels at the beginning of the girl going around with other dudes. Start of the line art is done, needs refined/cleaned/shaded. You can see the compiled WIP here: https://files.catbox.moe/goyoi4.png
Lastly, I've been working at giving my series a cover. Pic related. Need to add the comic's title somewhere, and I want to redraw it anyway. I'll probably recycle the chapter cover afterwards.
Speaking of, you can read the recolor of Platinum Point here: https://comicfury.com/goto.php?mode=visit&url=platinumpoint
It's only one page so far, but this weekend that'll hopefully change.
This is the ugliest most moronic shit I've ever seen in my life. I would be embarrassed to post this shit online. You have to have some kind of brain damage or be literally moronic to think this is any good. It looks like something my son would draw in pre-school. Do the world a favor and have a nice day as soon as possible.
Hilariously confrontational out of nowhere. Did mom forget to dye eggs with you?
>This is the ugliest most moronic shit I've ever seen in my life
You don't own a mirror?
I dont draw I am not from here you insignificant bacterium. Go play with your crayons some more moron.
>I dont draw
No shit Alex.

3 more fight scenes after this working on the 4th one now.
This scene is done! 27 frames! Thats 4 fight scenes down, 2 to go!
I completely forgot to put the battle ready scenes all together, both are now put together into one complete animated scene now! Skag and Tap get battle ready and break their fake halo's before the 6 epic fight scenes inside the coom sock!

why did my 2/2 gif get deleted?
oh well, more pages and gifs added to comic fury: https://ubossdailies.thecomicseries.com/comics/175/
Adding a few more pages and gifs inbetween animating this next fight scene. like just taking a break after each frame.
the first 6 frames of the 5th fight scene
>oh its alex
Hey, to be fair, it's an educated guess on my part.
"Insignificant bacterium" just sounds way too much like a vapid alsoran trying to appear sonantly-dynamic.
Which is to say "that homie types Reddit as frick, so I'm guessing it's him."
your art is super ugly bones, please study real life figures, faces etc. before posting again
as soon as my current animated fight scene is done I will post again, hopefully later on tonight, but probably sometime tomorrow, you cant stop me so cry about it. lol
why would I want to stop you from embarrassing yourself? that's you're prerogative
While he does need to work on anatomy more, the animation frames themselves aren't awful.
I think the main problem with blnes's animations here are that he hasn't really studied animation, so stuff like the tweening is lackluster, and he often redraws entire characters so there's constant movement everywhere instead of what we're supposed to be looking at. Without proper anticipation either, everything looks like it's happening in the same few spans without any variation in timing.
Even if I don't like his work, it's still commendable that he's trying all of this on his own. To that end, bones, you really need to look at where shortcuts would actually help you. Smear frames and all that shit. Go watch the Dover Boys and pay close attention to where animation isn't happening.
be a real man and draw how you would like it to look like gayola, oh wait I frickin' forgot, you cant do shit.
was about to say the same thing, but then I realized the reason why it needs to check if im human and the wait time before I get to actually refresh the capcha to post.
fantastic, love to see it. Back from vacation myself and now I need to get this fricking sand out of everything and mail my friend some joke gifts I snaged on the way home.
no, but I would love to have some Easter cheese
>be a real man and draw how you would like it to look like gayola, oh wait I frickin' forgot, you cant do shit.
nta, but I needed to doubletake since I thought you were bones for a moment
>I thought you were bones for a moment
If I had a nickle for everytime I had this said to me, id have two nickles. Which isnt alot but its weird that it happened twice.
yes and no, it was mostly a challenge to myself to try and get myself to draw since I liked to edit some art for my own nefarious purposes. Id look up boru over what I said about it the first time I posted about a week or so ago but im far too frickin' lazy and need to do an actual piece of art that isnt a shitpost.
well it turned out amazing, it looks great and you put your own original spin on it so its your art you can upload anywhere now to show your skills at comic making to people. Good job and thanks again!
thanks for the gluzzy master fan art, saved!
RIP!
>not putting /hyw/ anywhere in the OP
you stupid fricking moron, now no one will find the thread
Oh no someone figured out the school was looking up "hyw" in the catalog and decided not to put it in the OP! how ever will we have a thread that's been more on topic than any other in recent memory!
schizo* damn autocorrect
Hey moron, the schizo has no hobby other than gooning and spamming. He's already in the thread before most of the regulars even get here (
)
>most of the regulars
It feels like there are fewer and fewer every thread.
Who's missing? Name names!
Smacky
i thought their thingy ended.
these capchas are getting worse though, id give up 4chin alone to get away from these.
the new Capchas are quite fun actually. I often make posts just so I can complete the Capcha!
You're insane
The new captchas (especially the having to wait part) are killing this website
The schizo took its toll, but if you give it enough time the people that left will either come back or be replaced.
Humanized versions of my Vegetectives (non-canon, just for fun, cuz i'll draw anything to procrastinate drawing actual pages)
can you make it canon
it will be in some form
neat
for animation, you get permission to cut corners.
And apart from the rat b***h, i think most of it is servicable for an amateur project

Finally in chapter 3. At this rate, it should only be another 32 years until I can release it all
Can't imagine the willpower that goes into all that work and not post it for such a long time.
I assure you guys I am an incredible artist and I’m often surprised by how good my work is, but I really despise work and don’t even do my real job, it’s just a nightmare
I wish this general wasn't dead. There's clearly lots of people in this community, but none post anymore
Cinemaphile is just a bad board for this kind of topic. It's too fast for people to post comic progress on any consistent basis and none of that traffic would ever go here because all the people that come to the board just want to talk about cartoons/post twitter ragebait/make coomer threads.
That's versus the actual board dedicated to art criticism with threads that last long enough to get a wide range of responses AND actually fricking links to the previous threads so new people don't feel like each thread is its own unique thing and not a continuing general, and to see previously posted art to maybe help anyone having problems.
Also the obvious fact that people here are addicted to responding to bait and that derails threads immediately. This thread hasn't been bad but that's not the norm and no other art-related general has this problem which I can only assume is because /hyw/ is too focused on the creator of the comic and not the actual comic itself so there's not really much else to talk about anyway.
If this thread were instead focused on self-improvement and not self-promotion then the quality would 100% increase drastically. The links in the OP are barely even useful and haven't been changed in like half a decade man come on.
>/hyw/ is too focused on the creator of the comic and not the actual comic itself
It's funny how you were fine with this as a new newbie when you thought you were cool and were going to make it big and your name didn't instantly derail threads
>and no other art-related general has this problem
The other boards will actually delete Fred's obsessive spamming. Cinemaphile's jannies are honestly pretty terrible.
>just want to talk about cartoons
then id argue we're gonna be better off finding an audience on here than over on art critique where people only care about their own progress.
What audience? /hyw/ is just a bunch discordgays beating yourselves off. I beat if you put /hyw/ on /ic/ tomorrow not much changes besides alot of people walking away with brusied egos since other artists will be pointing out that they wouldn't read your work because the art looks bad.
the audience of comic reading people, reading comics, on this comic board.
i dont need ic telling me my perspective wasnt ruled out exact. i can fricking see that for myself, at the point where its too late to fix it.
> i can fricking see that for myself, at the point where its too late to fix it.
You’re supposed to be able to fix it while you’re doing the sketch. I don’t mean to beat you up or anything but it sounds like you have a pretty negative idea of critique and progress. Just being told an error was made that people can see, helps you pay better attention to it next time
>fix it while you’re doing
you cant just fix perspective errors. thats an entire scrap and redraw.
Huh? You lay out the perspective properly with guidelines at the start, and you can erase or replace any of them, and when you’re sketching out your figures, all you do is erase and adjust like you do for everything else during that stage anyways
The only people coming to these threads are other artists otherwise there would be far more post engaging the artist themselves. Also why do you people act like having good isn't important when i comes to webcomics? It's literally the reason people bother reading in the comic in the first place. I dont what happened in this gerenal to warrant looking down on self improvement but /ic/ at least a history of anons who got serialization in Japan and won comic contest.
>looking down at self improvement.
Nothing happened. The anti improvement attitude has been here from day one. Cold Fusion and others actively shit on posters who cared about improving their craft.
This general has never been healthy.
They have a manga making general on /ic/ that’s a good bit better than these threads because they have more to say about art there and actually do take a slightly professional approach to comic making
Everyone already posts there with significantly less shitposting because the board doesn't allow dramagayging. Which I know pisses (You) off more than anything so I consider that a W. Keep seething about not having friends here or discord or anywhere because your shitty controlling aditude drives away everyone genuine. Happy Easter.
/hyw/ is a discord circlejerk because of how much people here can't shut up about things that happen there rather than engage with the content. But Happy trans rememberance day to you too homosexual.
>blah blah blah discord blah blah troony blah
Like a broken record. You're the one who even brought up discord in the first place, obviously there's something about it that personally hurt your feelings. Just work on your comic dude.
>just want to talk about CARTOONS
Cartoons. Not comics.
But besides, at absolute max there were like 30-40 unique IPs in these threads before the counter was removed and that includes people who'd just post "new comic chapter" and then frick off. What audience is that? I can name like 5 actual regulars who aren't just here for drama.
There are lurkers, sure, but not enough to "find an audience" that's noticeably bigger than any other self-promo place.
I've only popped my head in now and again every few months, but what I usually see is the entire thread being dedicated to shitposting about 1 person, and then the rest of the posts are little sprinkles of one-page updates, or someone informing the artists here that they're all terrible and are never going to make it.
That's probably why it's dead.
That's a immunological reaction to the cancer that existed prior. You're confusing the symptoms of treatment for the disease.
Betz is the cancer. His removal is the treatment.
Whatever ‘immune’ reaction is going on here has gone too far and is itself killing the body
Sometimes that's the only cure.
I think the people who post pages are cool, they’re doing the right thing, though we should all probably work harder
how is this better than kofi or patreon?
It isn't. They take a bigger cut and the average reader on webtoon is about 14 and they have no money.
I'm at Wondercon this weekend at table D-08. I met one anon so far.
You are the only person here who will ever make it without DEI capital
That fricking rules, glad to see someone is doing it for real. I believe in you
What are the different Oi! books? I thought you only had three volumes, and then the beach one shot, but it looks like you've got 4 or 5 different regular volumes there.
Hope you did good, though. Some day I want to be able to do this.
It's going pretty good thanks!
I did new oi covers for the oi 10th anniversary, mostly to make them all have spines that match and to by typographically more coherent. The interiors are exactly the same as the previous versions.
I’m making some stuff based on my comic and re-opened my Patreon.
I decided that I’ll fulfill my contract but not renew, so I’m going back to comics regularly again.
nice
>tfw you know you're better than most people getting attention but you have to actually prove yourself to get the attention you know you deserve
Shut up, Melvin.
Shut up and post your work dummy
Been depressed for about 5 years and haven’t properly drawn in that entire time. Recently got help but I used to be good now I am shit. First drawing in like 2 years lol. Feel like a complete novice again but aww well. Drew in pen bc idgaf
You just have to get back into doing it more frequently, you'll get back into the swing of things, but take care of yourself too.
Thanks anon. 🙂
she's cute, just draw more of her!
Thanks guys, ultimately I'd love to make a game/webcomic (sadly in a quirky undertale rpg kinda way) but i struggle with motivation.
This looks awesome, would love to see more
I'm planning on putting up some flyers around town for my comic! I'll tell you guys how it went in a week or two
Did it!
>LOOK AT THOSE FRICKING NUMBERS! THIS IS GONNA BE A HIT or a curse
you madlas
that's pretty fricking cool, anon. inspiring really.
I might try doing that too somehow.
hope it helps
Thank you <3. But I have good and bad news! Good news, it worked! I got 91 page views! Last month I averaged 15 views for the entirety of March! That's a 506% increase in just two days! So it looks like the campaign worked and I'm planning on doing more flyers in the future. Bad news is a massive storm just hit my hometown and possibly destroyed most if not all of the posters! Sad shit but we ball and will keep balling
frick yea
heh. I see the bad news as a funny thing.
You're doing all you can. Literally and figuratively a storm comes in. Only thing left to do is keep going.
Gotta brave those future storms. Good luck out there
I'm going to make gender swapped designs instead of actually working on my comic
I refuse to work on my comic
Big dick is back in town.
Angelo is his name and I now prefer his design to his canon female counter part, darn
An enormous package on they/them
I'm going to call him "Aster."
So, who won the fred vs betz grooming allegations.
bones won. he always wins
None lmfao, they both made themselves look like morons.
Fredgay somehow made himself look like even more of a sex pest by posting discord dms of him erping with a unironic schizo. Plus him posting dms of the schizo threatening suicide whichbisn fricked up; it really shows what type of person he is and how much of a attention prostitute he is. Betz made himself look moronic by engaging a legit minor who enjoys infamy. He also only brang out the allegations after his own dirty laundary was being brought out by fred, call me a skitz but i legit think betz wouldn't of given a frick of what fred did if fred didn't try messing with him. He also overconflated the shit out of the claims he made about fred and had little evidence other than le schizo said so.
Tldr: ignore them both
The people who said Fred was a groomer posted proof. Fred's been spamming without any proofs, except to validate the allegations against him.
Winner? We all lose.
Fred did post screenshots between the convo of him and the minor if i remember correctly, while betz posted allegations from the minor and no dms, voice calls, or logs. All the screenshots that fred posted did was make him look moronic for talking to a mentally ill teen and having him help "troll" lmfao. Also something funny is fred accidentally posting the account name of the minor on crab2, i think it was pavel2019.
Betz didn't post anything. It was somebody else posting that the minor said on some Discord server. Just saying everyone against X is Y makes you seem like the thread schizo and I almost stopped reading your post at that point.
Okay. Autistic nitpick over.
Between the whole group I believe the allegations the Fred-groomed posted since there's not any reason for him to lie about Fred with shit that's completely in character of Fred. Everything Fred posted lined afterwards was pretty much just "yeah here's proof I did a lot of the shit he said with the sexting, but I'm a victim to his mental illness, why don't you trust me?"
>crab2
Yeah, I saw that shit on /crab/ Gaiden. That shit was kinda funny. Fred kept trying to change his story and trying to reframe himself as some innocent victim to the whole thing and a good honest dindu, then posted a screenshot of him telling his groomed-schizo to go frick himself and blocked him a day after all this shit started happening.
Here's something interesting, i was in the mscrew(discord server male green owned and allowed fred and his schozo orbiters to fester in) for a bit before the whole drama. Sadly i got no screenshots or channel messages since fred deleted both of his main accounts and him getting banned from the server. His ban was spurred on by a lot of his orbiters figuring out he was underage, apparently it was a open secret.
Some people of interest on there include
>maz
This person was one of fred's most sexual supporters, apparently they are a 29 year old polish woman. She acted really sexual towards fred and autstically defended him. They also made the shitty sadgirl comics that got posted on Cinemaphile
>ilovealbert
Unironic schizo, usually helps fred shitpost kinda funny
>lastchance
Random /ic/ troll who follows fred, usually makes fun of fred and helps him out
>giaolliza
Unironic 12 yearold from /vg/ really immature
There was a bunch more people, arounfd like 10 active users who unironicay worshipped and helped fred "troll".
I also got some info about fred that could be used to doxx him if yall want me to post that
Just forward the info to the FBI unironically, these are the kind of tips they look for.
I'll do that, most of the stuff i got on him are small facts about him. Might as well post some.
According to fred he is apparently 25% west african, 3% spanish, and the rest native/ south mexican.
His family is from the yucatan peninsula, but his family and he live in west wood california right now.
He has really brown skin, and is semi fit due to him going to the gym, he has a strong fat physqiue, but more leaning towards fat.
He has a extreme lisp, kinda sounds like chris chan if chris chan was mexican.
According to him his dad(who is around 24) use to attention prostitute like him, but on myspace and ytmd.
>Info to doxx Fred
>He's a Mexican in California
Nobody here cares about little factoids about a literal child, just bust the pedos you freak.
Fred deserves to get doxxed and fricked with, he is self aware of the shit he does, but doesn't care because it's "fun". Idc if he is a kid. I also will post some info on his handlers/orbiters in a bit.
Most info i got on him he has said on his 'cord
Ill go through what i got and post the juicy pics, i might have a pic of his face.
>Idc if he is a kid
I don't like calling him a kid. That makes it sound like he's 10. He's old enough to know better.
Fred is a sex pest without any boundaries who sexually harasses people including other minors, so... yeah, why are you complaining!
>According to him his dad(who is around 24)
What, did he have Fred at 10 years old?
That autist joins these threads to spam about betz with Fred.
>I also got some info about fred that could be used to doxx him if yall want me to post that
Don't tease.
>I also got some info about fred that could be used to doxx him if yall want me to post that
Do it, I almost believe you *are* Fred
Isn’t it a major psycho problem that anyone on a webcomics thread is trying to get someone else for grooming on a different site? I mean what the frick, just stop
>Spam about Betz for three days
>Sleep
>People ask questions about the spammer
>>"Guys this is totally, like, messed up can you all stop?"
Bad faith groid or damage control homosexual.
Either way rope yourself
I’m talking about the spammer you dumbass
Do any of you have plans to make some art of your oc's doing something easter related?
My comic has a rabbit so maybe
Whatever happened to just blocking a guy and not talking to them? Is it typical of gay discord to stick around trying to abuse people you don’t want to work with or date or whatever?
Call the police or some shit, I don’t know why you have to crap up a comics board over it
Insane claim to make when you can't back it up. Take a step back and think about how you're spending your time, because there's no way this is the best use of it.
What the frick is going on?
Some dude's crabbing because he's not in the Discord. "Coincidentally" the spam about betz is back.
>searching for people in my country (Brazil) to do an art similar do David Mack ethereal watercolours (Daredevil&Echo and Jessica Jones) and Terese Nielsen geometry for a personal non-commercial project
>knows pretty well this can be expensive and doesn't mind paying a fair price
>find one artist who probably can do the gig
>contacts him
>doesn't answer in both social medias
>trying to find other artists
>artists friends recomending me other people
>going on twitter and facebook communities
>find more foreigner artists who can do the job rather than people from my country
>has been around a week since started searching
>feeling tired already
I know I could simply do a post on social media searching for this, but I'm too shy and like to remain outside spotlight. Ugh... This is such a drag...
I have created a webcomic
Gloomy are you ok?
I don't know who Gloomy is, I don't really go here
No I’m not but that wasn’t me
Hang in there bud
Are you going with black and white or full color? If you're sticking to B&W, I'd suggest filling in some space with solid black- her skirt or shirt, the floor or the wall, maybe her hair. It'll help it pop without having to go full-color.
Black and white, thank you for the advice.
so I got jackson, admiral pizza, Bard Irish girl, Saint's creator, who else am I looking for?
Got how? Did you kill them?
who had the best boss fight?
Your mom
I revamped the designs of the main ladies in "Dakota's Ghoulfriend."
Easter surprise
Well threads done for. Same time next week guys?
Every single time.
I don't get it. We know mods see these threads, but the obviously irrelevant bullshit is just left to fester and ruin everything.
What are some real websites to post and discuss webcomic work on?
There's a slow, comfy NewGrounds thread
no, I won't link it
>He thinks people won't just go to NewGrounds and manually look for it
I'll say it. It's a thread called "Hows your Webcomic?"
Let the shitposter try to shitpost there. He'll get fricking banned.
found it, thats neat.
And let’s be real, this is all obviously weaponized ‘doxxing’, there’s no real wound anywhere for any ‘grooming’ and all of this is just another part of the violent crab bucket this website and thread is about. It’s all just another made up obstacle to getting your shit together and drawing for fricking once, but nooooooooo, half of the people here are fricking kidding about wanting to get anything done, so they all make up fresher and crazier excuses why they don’t have anything to show. None of you have been sexually abused, you’re all perverts in the first place being c**ts about your gay discord exes. There I said it
I fricking hate you all so much. Especially you Schizo. You're such a prick, imagine letting some dumbass live in your mind rent free for YEARS, and ruining thread after thread. How does it feel?
>Inb4 SHUT UP BETZ or your usual Betz related shit
Eat shit, scum.
Can you believe there are people who don’t draw, and barely even write, who attack other people like this for not pulling them out of the gutter and creating their magnum opus for them? You are like the person who wrote this comic, all of you who are trying to run to someone else to do whatever half of ‘your comic’ for you. Fricking sitting here trying to make a scene because you think someone else who contributed to your hare-brained ‘project’ was supposed to carry you to victory just because you thought they would. You are all fricked, take a serious think about this.

>How's your webcomic?
my webcomic output this month was dogshit.If I don't do better next month I'm going to jump off a bridge. Hopefully the shitposter does first though.
>How's your webcomic
Been in the planning stages for almost three years now, and just barely starting the visual elements, probably won't be ready for a while; but in the meantime, here some light concept art. It's a clan-mascot-turned-Gundam made by one of the main insectoid races in my setting.
>Been in the planning stages for almost three years now
Lmao many such cases
thank you, still working on this 5th fight scene.
Literal Sonic OC
This scene is done! 32 unique frames, some frames repeated so about 40+ frames total.
5 fight scenes done, 1 more to go then I can start wrapping this UBOSS DAILIES animated special up.
*This gif has been shrunk down to fit on Cinemaphile!

updated my original webcomic this animation is based on, animated gif below every page in this chapter!
New page early
New Puffer and Clarissa page is up: https://pufferandclarissa.com/
Your comic is very good. May I ask if you’ve made any money on it?
There was a successful Kickstarter for the first part that made me some money, but it is not my main source of income.
Nice. I have a main source of income too so it’s nice to hear a good comic like yours can get at least something put in to keep it going. Congrats, by the way, you seem to really know what you’re doing
It better end in a lesbian kiss, only handholding is a cop out.
Ah, shit, it was racism all along.
Webcomics?
My webcomic updated, and is now available on Comicfury and Tapas under the name Catgirl Girlcat.
Also of note is that this page was done before I was advised to give the comic larger black areas and I didn't want to go back and change it.
It doesn't look terrible, but would still benefit from some more contrast- makes sense that you wouldn't want to go back and fix what's already done, though. Looking forward to what comes next!
New panel
For each reply, I'll add to Francesco a fish in his back.
+1 fish please.
take away his fish and replace it with mine

>How's your webcomic?
on the backburner for the forseeable future. ADHD means I can only work on what project my brain allows me to at the moment. I'm not complaining.
My *fan*comic- okay let's be real it's probably just gonna be a fanfiction because fight scenes are hard to draw- is coming along nicely though. All the major characters have names now, yay.
the newest character does not have a real name yet, just a codename, but this problem can be temporarily solved because it's perfectly in character for her to insist upon being referred to by her codename at all times because she's a fricking weirdo
>hows your webcomic?
I almost worked on my comic yesterday.
WAGMI
Same but for the last two weeks
how does a popular show about comics like CK just end and never even bring web comics back into relevancy. how fricked is this medium, truly? is it because theres no money to be made out of it?
It's because boomers don't understand the medium and that kids today are primarily reading manga and webcomics
Western comics have become a tired and wishy washy medium, while anyone across the world who takes the manga approach as seriously as real manga artists, can succeed. I genuinely think it’s a problem of malingering and people not taking themselves seriously, going through the motions to either ‘do the old superhero thing’ like it’s just a job you slip into, or meekly tell themselves their comic isn’t really supposed to be popular or good. Meanwhile all you have to do is read a good manga and actually try to compete in that arena without kidding yourself, and you’ll be on track to something great
Making a batch of comics to space out over the next few weeks, I like how Brutaka came out in this one.
my pc dying means my buffer is gone so its probably in hiatus for at least till the end of this month or may, unless if people dont mind black and white stuff for a while.
>How's your webcomic?
i got my font, boxes are neat, page sizes are good and scripts for future pages are done.
I just need to clean up the old pages and redo the words with the new fonts so it's readable.
I'm on a fence about adding a little texture or artistic detail to the pages like a crumbled piece of paper feel. I think it's tryhard if I do it, but it would feel fun doing so. I do want to have fun with my comic.
After that, I'll need a couple of places where I can post them and monitor the traffic.
>make a quick sketch storyboard
>full of poses and angles that are way beyond my ability to render
I always make things harder for myself.
Just try and try again. You can change a sketch as many times as you like, I start with very soft blue non-photographic pencil strokes (since I’m working in traditional media, none of the uninked sketch scans anyways) and then draw more firmly as you can see what lines are actually right for the full figure you’ve begun to set up
