#REGARDLESS OF STYLE

posting this just on its own b/c it’s something I’ve been wanting to say, but here’s the full post for other important input on the convo: https://www.tumblr.com/triaelf9/723501539078160384/xfreischutz-feathernotes-feathernotes-theres?source=share
This is something deeply personal to me and yes, the landscape has changed SO much. I started making webcomics in 2005, fresh out of high school and have been making them ever since. I make mostly grayscale comics on a schedule that doesn’t overwhelm me (1 comic updates twice a week, the other once a week, and the third twice a month). I use the same program I used back in 2005, though the newest version of it that came out in like 2010 I think.
The very first comic I worked on was silly and fun, but I still get the occasional email today of folks telling me how much it meant to them. After years of rejection & getting better each year, I started working on the stories I wanted to tell. I managed to get an agent, and one of comics was picked up by Dark Horse. I did not go to art school, I never got the networking a lot of the bigger folks got, and I don’t live in the US (which, fun fact, locks me out of being able to use Webtoons fully - they’ve region-locked their app AHAHAHAH FUN).
So yeah, start whenever the heck you want! If you have a story you want to tell, that is the only reason you need to start. The more YOU enjoy your story, the more that’ll show through. If you want your art to grow, nothing will improve you faster than starting a webcomic. Also, read comics, look how your favs construct a page. Panel composition is more important than you think. The main key to a good webcomic is “is what I’m trying to show clear” and just keep on pushing.
You can start anywhere. You can show whoever you want, or no one at all (I did comics for me all through elementary school). Everyone has their own personal goal of where they’d like to be. And I’m by no means a success story. but only YOU can determine your success, and I’m happy where I am.
START THAT COMIC! you’ve got this ^_^ (also, if you don’t want to do color comics YOU DON’T HAVE TO! If anyone bugs you about it, just tell them Elaine said it was fine and they can go make their own comic in color if they care so much XD)
And readers? SHARE THE COMICS YOU LIKE! Word of mouth does so much, and if we ever want the little folk to have a chance against the mega corps, or even just the highly popular aggregate sites, boost the heck outta the comics you love ^_^
#webcomics#indie comics#webtoons#tapas#support webcomics#i also find it funny that now webcomics are indie b/c for years I had like proper traditional indie creators looking down their noses at us#WE HAVE TO UNITE YA'LL#REGARDLESS OF STYLE#hold each other up ^_^

watching the kaiju no. 8 anime and the kafka + reno dynamic is so top-tier. contrasting reno, a sterotypical edgy anime teenager, with kafka, a pretty regular guy in his 30s, has such endless comedy to it.
they're father-son coded but reno did the adopting. he saw how lame and wet kafka was and fetched the adoption papers out himself.
#im pretty slow getting thru this episode rn just because of how fried my brain is#but im enjoying it regardless of the art style#the meeting scene with reno and kafka made me have to write this post its so funny#also i know reno literally never dresses like it but i know hes emo. i can smell it on him.#if he wasnt working a government job i know he'd be walking around in black nail polish#kaiju no. 8#kaiju number 8#kafka hibino#reno ichikawa#kaiju no. 8 anime

Forwards, Beckon, Rebound
Based on chapter 9 of @aroace-get-out-of-my-face’s fic! I read the chapter and was humming this song to myself later that very day, and it was like two neurons connected in my brain to form a single coherent thought. I simply had to make this.
E. Have fun man.
#This was incredibly fun to make#Never drawing a running sequence again though you cannot make me#How legs. How. How anything man#This song fits them to a T#The rollercoaster the chapter took me on and the steady back and forth of this song is literally one in the same do you see my vision#gravity falls#stanford pines#stanley pines#My art#I’ll be honest any time I make art for this fic i make it with the sole purpose of inflicting psychic damage on you E I’m sorry#It’s jsut so GOOD. We all must suffer TOGETHER. And I’m simply making sure you are included E#<3#So many callbacks to other art! Including mine!! There’s one nobody will catch bc it’s related to an animation I haven’t finished yet#Regardless#i know it’s there and that’s enough to make me happy#If you ignore the changing brushes and changing art style it’s almost coherent! Fun fact! /j

#the day has come that it actually is impossible for me to render drawings until i fix my apple pencil. i spent all weekend trying but nada.#it just cannot be done. but- this gives me the opportunity to take a break from that style. regardless of how much it disappoints me#(i also remembered alex’s freckles this time. i know. i know. hold the applause 🤚)#like minds#murderous intent#nigel colbie#alex forbes#forbie#like minds 2006#nigel colbie fanart#alex forbes fanart#like minds fanart#fanart#art#drawing#doodle#like minds art#religious coded

Thank god my prof moved the deadline cause ain't no way can I finish an animation by tonight ajskaidlsk anyways, since the deadline got moved I decided to take a break from it and draw some zk :>> happy zutara week!!
#zutara#zuko#katara#atla#zutara week 2023#my art#i drew them in my softer style cause i am soft for them :'>>#i think they always look a bit older and more mature in this style even tho i only really change the brushes i use when i draw in this styl#it's just different brushes but the look and feel to it is different from how i draw now with different brushes i think#or maybe i'm just tripping and my art looks the same regardless of what brushes i use aidlajdlajsk#anyways yeah happy zk week!! sorry for missing it again this year :'>>#thank you to my classmate who talked to our prof for an extension akdjlakdkak#i couldn't have drawn this today and would have been cramming right now :'>>#i'm gonna rb some old zk art later to make up for missing this year's zk week djaldjlaksk

MAKE-A-NOSSIE IS NOW LIVE !!!
Make or recreate your own Nosferatu!
Currently this maker has 5 different faces, 6 skintones, and several different, movable facial features. Also includes stuff like piercings, boils, and wounds on top of accessories like hats, masks etc. Ghoul pets probably incoming at some point too.. Pets are now here!!
! CW for blood, body horror, eye trauma, teeth etc. Basically, there are parts for walking masquerade violations so… Remember that.
You can request some stuff too if there are parts you would want added <3
(I also have a ko-fi if you wanna throw in a buck or two)
#picrew#clan Nosferatu#vtm#vtm nosferatu#vampire the masquerade#Nosferatu#mine#this is kinda niche but I hope you guys like it + can put it to use! and like I said in the maker you can edit ur creation in this or use#it in games as portraits for your ocs or npcs etc etc. its basically f2u as long as you dont overtly monetize it#im probably gonna add more stuff to this regardless of requests bc this is just stuff that I wanted to have as a “base” but who knows#ghoulified pets are totally incoming at some point tho i prommy#i actually have a few different full body dress ups w/ different themes but i got bored of them so. 😑#but Nosferatu are always so fun to do.. and they can look asymmetrical/blotchy or w/e its part of the charm#also the stereotypical nos fashion is like Soo my style. half of this stuff i have or want to have lol#anyway i'll stop yapping... and if you wanna show me ur nossie creations that'd be cool too...

I can't wait to see how they work things out.
#critical role#callowmoore#fearne calloway#ashton greymoore#rockwild#genuinely I'm just!!! i love them both and this is the perfect thing to happen to them#ashton NEEDED to get thrown into a situation that made them question themself#here's hoping they're on a road to accepting and loving themself#and that Fearne is on her way to navigating new emotions and whatever past gets revealed via her mom#critical role spoilers#ALSO simplifying ashtons hair in this style was ROUGH but i like how it turned out regardless
