Here it is, the comic I’ve been working on for 3 weeks! Hope you enjoy ♥️ It’s set after ep6 of TBOBF (ep7 was a disaster lol so take this instead xoxo)
In your view/experience. is the rate of "incompleteness" among webcomics more or less the nature of online personal projects as a whole? Or is there something specific to webcomics like laboriousness, audience expectations, relative medium infancy or whatnot?
well for one thing webcomics has changed significantly in the last ten years. it used to have a much lower barrier for entry, just get a smackjeeves account or set up a website with a wordpress plugin. starting a webcomic when i started my webcomic vs starting a webcomic now are totally different experiences.
so i can only speak to people who started their webcomics roughly ten years ago. and roughly ten years ago a lot of us were a whole lot younger with a lot more time and energy to spend on a comic for free. this part is probably still somewhat true for new artists.
but then you get older. your ideas change. your skill develops and the old stuff isn't as good. or you don't have as much time, you got a day job. unless you're one of like five people on earth your webcomic is not paying your rent. you need to make money. your shoulder hurts. you're 30 now. you're struggling to make updates on time between whatever else makes you happy and what else you need to do to live. you wrote this story when you were 21, you don't relate to it anymore, you have different ideas, you've grown up, your audience has noticeably dropped off from the peak, social media managing is hard, you have to go to work, you're so tired, all the time.
hey fellow artists I know that we all want to create huge beautiful peices with dynamic poses all the time but sometimes you just gotta draw a guy just kinda standing there. For your mental health I guess.
I’m so dumb I’m like “how come despite me thinking about my faveys so much, nobody is coming out of the woodwork to appreciate them fervently with me???” Meanwhile I have not drawn or posted about them at all
I just posted a big character lineup of the Godflesh cast in fancy outfits! Including a first look at some characters you won’t meet until next chapter 😳
Also, I included a dress-up doll version in case anyone wants to try their hand at fashion design!
