New logo for my webcomic, although it doesn’t make a good thumbnail. Fits a portfolio
Not mine, but reposting in hopes that someone continues it
Why tf are jannies sliding these threads?
Terriful is set to return in January with five rewritten issues, followed by the Crisis crossover, then straight into the new series, now named "Terriful Vol. 2". I'm aiming to have it be more episodic as opposed to le deep and epic narrative that I tried before. And yes, I'd like to get back into doing real crossovers again at some point. Nothing like I did before where it's muh edgy OC is so epic try to stop him. Been reading a lot of DC/Marvel and seeing how they did crossovers with respect to each property.
>>150749571You have become a Flanderized parody of yourself.
>>150750021You think that's bad? Just wait until you see what I'm planning.
>>150749571Tell your janny coworkers to stop sliding the threads
>>150750100Why are you subjecting us to this torture? Can't you find another online community to destroy?
>>150750224You're allowed to not read it you know. It's only torture if you make it torture on yourself
>>150749571Why do you think Terriful has never managed to connect with readers?
>>150750322I had very shitting writing 5 years ago and prioritized making him a meme character like Deadpool instead of focusing on making something people would tune into. The pieces are there, I was just retarded in using them before. Pic related is everything that was wrong with Terriful summed up on one page.
Puffer and Clarissa 2!!!! I'm still working on the script/taking feedback so here's a little promo art to practice the girls' new designs.
>>150750450Why do you think it will work this time? Are you open to the idea that the character of Terriful simply doesn't work?
>>150750450And here's the new page. Not going to sit here and say I'm Robert Kirkman, but man is it better than the shit I was doing before even if slightly.
>have had cape comic/shounen manga/sci-fi saga comic ideas since high school goddamn 20 years ago now>teamed up with lifelong artfag friend to get things started>right as we launch our first chapter, get stuck with second greatest heartbreak of my life and/or spiraling depression for last 10 years, just now crawling my way out of>now artfag friend is a family man with wife and kid but is still ready and willing to make things with me>despite the now better outlook on things find it difficult to drum up motivation to sketch simple thumbnailsSorry for the blog post, but would any of yall have advice on how to get the gears moving, as it were? Been slow going getting back into the groove of things
In the latest Puffer and Clarissa update, Killer Whale murders someone for doing a good job: https://pufferandclarissa.com/
>>150750478I think Terriful this time around will "work" (better) because instead of chasing pop culture trends using him as a outlet, I'm trying to focus more on his interactions and struggles in the world I've made him be in. I see him more like Archie Mega Man. He's this newer hero, trying to keep the peace in a world where the two dominant species are at their breaking point. Instead of treating him like Deadpool, (and spoiler alert! Terriful is no longer self aware) I'm trying to treat him as an amateur hero that's trying to do good but still has a long way to go.
>>150750478Sorry, I should've included this in my other post. Yes, Terriful (as was presented previously) 100% DOES NOT WORK. I believe there's an audience out there for Terriful, and these redux things are moreso me getting a re-feel for my own characters. Which is why even those who don't read my redux are able to start with the new series and get a good introduction into Terriful, his struggles, and the world he lives in which is more than I ever did before.
>>150750527>>150750484So now he's Deku and that will make people like him?
>>150750558Never read MHA, so I can't make a comparison and say if that's true or not. People will "like" him because he's an actual character and not an outlet for me to write my Rick and Morty fanfiction.
>>150750558nta but a lot of people do like that sort of character
I felt like it was important to include monsters in my resumed updates so here is a bat design.
>>150750450>I had very shitting writing 5 years agoTerriful doing the needful confirmed
>>150750471>>150750508Pumped for the sequel. Who do you go to for feedback and input? It's something I'd like to start doing.
did a 1 shot between chapters of my main comic, tell me what ya thinkhttps://imgur.com/a/ignorance-dtOwOf7
>>150749571>>150750450>>150750450I feel bad for you at this point
>>150750966Yeah and that's not even the worst part. I have two comics. Apocalypse knight is going pretty good right now me and pin are working on the fifth issue and are setting up a brand new storyline based on his recommendation. I'm very excited.
>>150751005>Apocalypse knight is going pretty good right nowfake news
im on a month long hiatus due to some stuff going on but im on chapter 16 of my comic Coolest kid in town (and very proud of myself) and im finally starting to get somewhere with the plotcheck it out, it's a pretty entertaining read i promise>Webtoons: https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/coolest-kid-in-town/list?title_no=981900>Tapas: https://tapas.io/series/Coolest-Kid-In-Town/info
>>150751013Sorry bud.
>>150751095no one reads it
>>150751095Glad Levi is getting paid.
>>150751365And you can read what he gets paid to draw here: https://globalcomix.com/c/apocalypse-knight
>>150750895Cool style, do you have a link to your other stuff?
>>150751429I'm good, thanks
>>150751429Nah.
>>150750855I mostly asked a few mutuals on social media/discord if they’d be interested in giving feedback on the synopsis. A few have so far, but I’m waiting for a couple more to give their thoughts before I move forward with the needed revisions.
Abnormal Shift Chapter 2 is currently being drawn. Chapter 3 is written and I'm working on Chapter 4 right now. https://globalcomix.com/c/abnormal-shift-?lang_id=enI also found out the hard way that merging releases on GlobalComix resets the view count but oh well. I'll probably just start only posting full chapters on there.
>>150748231I’m still in the production pipeline, but I am finishing Chapter/Episode 5, I also sketched out and wrote the script for 6.
Chapter 1 is currently ongoing. Feedback appreciated.https://holydiode.neocities.org/
>>150752105are you not going to put an image in your post ?? or a summary ? or anything?
>how's you're webcomic?I dunno. I'm making it. and I got 3 upvotes on reddit...
>>150751433Thanks heres the WIP for my main comic, love any critiques https://imgur.com/a/wealth-toil-work-progress-first-chapter-9ucpQ1JI havent posted it anywhere yet as I wanna get the first 3 chapters done before uploading them anywhere cause they sorta flow into each other to tell the opening, and so I can go back later and improve some of the art at the start /middle.

aw man is good to be back at uploading regularly and checking the threads again.I wonder how my good friends at HYWC are doing today!
>>150753405>I wonder how my good friends at HYWC are doing today!Lousy.
>>150752792Okay, this is kinda cute.
>>150753823you can have a great time, Anon, I believe in you
>>150749571>Been reading a lot of DC/Marvel and seeing how they did crossovers with respect to each property.Killing off a bunch of C-listers then rebooting the universe?
>>150749571>And yes, I'd like to get back into doing real crossovers again at some point. Nothing like I did before where it's muh edgy OC is so epic try to stop him. Been reading a lot of DC/Marvel and seeing how they did crossovers with respect to each property.Why do you think you're qualified to lead a webcomic crossover event?
>>150754299I meant DC and Marvel as like the crossovers. Not DC AND Marvel.>>150754363A hunch.
Page 23 rough draft. I learned a new technique many probably have done but needs to be said. I can work on any page I want if it’s already thumbnailed. I don’t need to work on chronological order and if I don’t feel like working on the next page I can just look for the next closest one I like to do. Also going to search for actual pencil pages to begin to do actual penciling.
>>150754431What other artists have agreed to work for you so far?
>>150754431But that's what DC and Marvel both do when they have their crossover events.
>>150748231Its not lookin good. i have everything laid out already and im learning to draw. I have a friend whos been working on the first 3 pages for 4 months (we keep getting sidetracked) And im hoping to be able to pitch in. its literally just me and him making it (﹏)
>>150754363NTA but Betz has two webcomic events under his belt, one of which is literally a 12-way webcomic crossover.
>>150754742Yeah Betz and both were failures.
>>150753405Welcome back Pin! Are you still posting the hotel?>>150754363>>150754431>>150754742Crossovers are weak. They're never interesting or used to tell a good story, they're just "what if different things I liked were together. " It's more key- jangling than writing. In a medium where you can do whatever you want, it's baffling that there are people trying to emulate the worst aspects of the big two.
>>150755124>They're never interesting or used to tell a good story, they're just "what if different things I liked were togetherSee I take this criticism because yes, that's 100% my mentality and you're right. If I'm going to do it there would need to be a good reason for it. Plus I got rid of my ez multiverse card so I don't have the baseline "multiverse shenanigans" I can just pull. I just like seeing things together is that such a crime lmao.
>>150755202It would only be good if you get bones to write and draw it for you because you're ass at making comics.
>>150755124>still posting the hotel?still torturing myself, yes.https://www.theduckwebcomics.com/The_Hotel/5817971/I'm also daring for starry Ladders and Maid to Mistress
>>150753405tfw no ballerina husbando....
>>150755539>Maid to MistressWtf this looks awesome
>>150755757Thanks Anon! it's written by HeidiFisk so you know the script has quality
>>150749571Shut up Betz
>>150756196Why can't he read the room and go away fr
>>150755780Aaand I'm hooked
