What webcomic- related achievement are you proudest of in 2025?>Thread Challenge:Make this thread about actual webcomics and not gay drama (that includes you, Christfag)
>>151122815can there be an actual thread challenge please
>>151122815>What webcomic- related achievement are you proudest of in 2025?I’m proud of getting 7/60 comics finished and fully colored so far, can’t wait to release them
>>151122815>Thread QuestionI'm just glad I kept at this long enough to see my fifth chapter, since each is around 50 pages or so at minimum.
>>151122921Previous anon— I know what you mean, I said I finished 7/60, that’s roughly 10 pgs per “comic”
>>151122859>can there be an actual thread challenge pleaseI can assure you the thread challenges are rarely, if ever filled
>>151122939How much does full color versus monochrome add in terms of creation time for you, if at all?
>>151122815I finished a lengthy project of brushing up old comic pages. Mainly a resolution change but many wobbly heads, wonky faces and lazy eyes were treated. The dramaturgy got tightened a notch in some cases. https://tapas.io/episode/3698812

halloween
>>151122815>Thread Challenge:>Make this thread about actual webcomics and not gay drama (that includes you, Christfag)Looking forward to either a long and fruitful thread devoid of posts from the horsemen of faggotry or derailing this bitch with no survivors. Equally excited for both.
>>151124361That's fucking boring though. And when I close the tab.
>>151124415OK, bye
>>151124415Sorry man, those are your options. Faggotry levels stay nominal or we're going off the rails on a crazy train.
I'm making a new intro for one of my series. Making it is an amazing experience.
>>151123125I love Bunnyseries but I just can't handle the jumpscares

>>151125047
>What webcomic- related achievement are you proudest of in 2025?Just the fact that I started one at all. I struggle a lot with mental health shit and with physical issues (my hand is kinda dead, I can only draw with a wrist brace and I still have to restrict myself to drawing only 5 week days. If I don't rest, then not even the brace can save me). My goal is just to keep going through the years. I'm super happy I did something this year. I really really am.>>151122921That's at least 250 pages right? there's full comic books that length. You're insane (by that I actually mean "you're cool as hell, what the fuck").
>>151125047>>151125063I love how expressive your characters are.
>>151122815Im stuck on a plot point.I need to close a situation in an elegant way so i can do a time skip. The characters are at a party. Sone of them had a good time some had a bad time. Idf if i can just be like>end then they left. The endOr do i have to show them glong home and debriefing their experiences. Idk. I dont wanna draw all that.
>>151122815>We're entering the last two months of the year. What webcomic- related achievement are you proudest of in 2025?50 pages
>>151125260You could use a narrator just briefly explaining the situation in a somewhat poetic way maybe?Like, the narrator explains that some of them had a good time and some a bad time (maybe show panels of some characters happy and the others suffering) and then something like "But in the end, life goes on. Even in the worst day of your life, sooner or later you'll go sleep". It could take a single page to do what I said.
>>151125260>Or do i have to show them glong home and debriefing their experiences.Nope. Leave a little to the reader's imagination. Do your best to communicate clearly how the characters feel in the moment, and where this experience at the party might take them. Keep in mind comics are a visual medium, you can communicate alot wordlessly as to avoid heavy- handed text exposition.
>>151122815>Thread QuestionGetting a bunch of titillating fan art.
>>151125260End the scene with some sort of punchline so no one's surprised when it cuts to the next scene.
>>151122815>What webcomic- related achievement are you proudest of in 2025?Finally finishing the first book.The forbidden pspspspspspspsps
>>151125739great! so, where is it? is it online ?
>>151122815>What webcomic- related achievement are you proudest of in 2025?I updated every day for a whole month which was pretty cool? But then I had a huge hiatus, whoops. I'm intending on doing a marathon updating spree again for this month to make up for it.It's not so much that I got super worn out from the marathon update schedule from before but I got sidetracked with a project all summer and some bad IRL stuff before that.>>151125047>>151125063Looks good! Really like this style you have here, and for pencils they look really nice!>>151125739>finishing first bookAwesome dude! I'm curious, your page here looks interesting. Name of comic?
Sharon plays with her daughter so she will go to sleep. https://pufferandclarissa.com/
And here's some Whaleshark art I did for fun.
>>151123058I tend to do all my lineart in one day, then coloring takes like 2 days because I do full color
fuck my life
>>151126793Fuck webtoon. Do you have a Comicfury mirror?
>>151126813No, sorry
>>151126955Would recommend. They generally don't pull shit like this, barring extreme circumstances
>>151126180Is not on sale by now. I have to rework some stuff before to release it.>>151126279Figlio d'Argento
>>151126793Spicy take, but no one deserves to be #canceled
>>151127075Sick, thanks. Cool opening too, already gets off to a running start!
>>151127208>Spicy take, but no one deserves to be #canceledFeels like that would be context- specific. Webcomic getting pulled by a host because of violence/ language/ nudity? That sucks. A webcomic getting pulled because it promotes nazi ideology? Eh, cry me a river.
>>151126315my wife
>>151126338I need a swimsuit special for Sharon.
Drew a page tonight but have to reupload it because I forgot missed some small dumb details
>>151127844>Yeah, like "white people have the right to exist". Cancel that racist shit. Everything needs to be gay and brown forever.
>>151126793What was so bad about it
>>151127302I just wouldn't want to be canceled over, say, drawing Mohammad (pbuh) in a comic about comparative religion.
>>151122815>finally say 'fuck it' and allow NSFW of my webcomic to be posted around the place >actually get people recognizing my comic on other sites, had some bump in subs and readersWell I always knew that'd be the case but I'll be damned. Still gonna try to keep a proper balance between the NSFW and SFW.
>>151128952>finally say 'fuck it' and allow NSFW of my webcomic to be posted around the placeSometimes it feels like that's the only path to success.
>>151128530I asked in the Webtoon Canvas Discord and they said it was probably because I went a bit overboard with the swearing.>The amount of f-bombs in the comic are likely the reason it was taken down considering it’s a YA webtoon.The chapter was literally just a set of short scenes with text boxes showing messages from an anonymous forum the characters use. Picrel is basically the whole chapter. There’s some missing dialogue from the guy with the lighter, but it was on the same line as the rest.
And you said he was dead

>>151129522Seth harder
>>151122815Actually posting at all. I've been thinking about this webcomic (obligatory plug) for a long ass time. Sequential art is fun as hell but rather tiring. That and trying to find a consistent editor has been quite difficult. https://tapas.io/series/Anno-Arcana/infohttps://tapas.io/episode/3707828
>>151129596Forgot my image.
>>151129588>Seth harder
>>151129802That’s Sething too hard
i'm kind of experimenting a bitthis started out with me just making a secret code yesterday, but then I turned it into a font and made a comic with itthen I made... whatever this ishttps://files.catbox.moe/t6ijg6.mp4I'm thinking I could make a cryptic arg site but with comics, but I probably won't because I only made this randomly and i'm more curious if you guys think this is cool or stupid
>>151130025also, this was the other comic I made the day prior, it's more silly
>>151129493Buttz is extremely seething and butthurt about this still.
Would you open the door?
>>151130793Hennessy from muh ex-wife?? Yes
>>151130799Would you kiss your evil ex-wife?? Would you????
>>151130793>>151130799>>151130814I love how hot this bitch is
>>151129305thats way too many fucks. it just sounds childish
>>151129434this is a crazy effect. but I usually dont like it when comics go into animation territory.>>151129147I bet 100 $ if I started to make NSFW I'd still be a social media leper.>>151130035promising comic. but do the words mean anything?
>>151131818>I bet 100 $ if I started to make NSFW I'd still be a social media leperNo, I believe you
Practicing drawing one of my main characters in beast form
>>151132547That's hot. Love the one on the left having a tummy.
>>151122815Launched my new comic UNICORN COLLAR: https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/unicorn-collar/list?title_no=1099061three pages in, the first page got deleted for being to sexy. I almost gave up on comics and went back to normal drawings and porn, but I decided I will finish this project, but I wont bother coloring it because webtoons does not deserve the effort or quality, I will color and clean up the pages when I eventually make a Tapas account sometime next year.
>>151126793I feel your pain, the same thing happened to me for this page. I broke no rules with this page and selected from a drop down menu that things like this would happen and be seen in this comic and it still got removed. I didn't know webtoons was a bunch of prudes, people on discord told me webtoons is run by korea and they dont tolerate things that are too lewd or pornagraphic, but this page is neither lewd or pornagraphic in my opinion. Just a little cameltoe because Unussy's space suit is a bit tight. Nothing to clench your pearls and grasp at desu.>>151133139page 1/3 *this page got removed by webtoons so now it's a deviantart and 4chan exclusive i guess lol
>>151132547I love this image, incredible work! Got me to start reading your comic when you posted it at the end of the last thread, I have it bookmarked and will read all of devils moon when i have the time to! I found a link to your discord on newgrounds after reading a bunch of your comic but the link was dead, i was just going to join as a silent fan, i wasn't going to post any of my art or anything lol. >>1511331922/3
>>1511332123/4 woops im 4 pages in I made 2 pages yesterday lol
>>1511332214/4 i made this page last night. I got a lot of things to do today but I might be able to make a new page tonight after I do all the irl stuff I got to do, got a lot of family coming out for thanksgiving and clearing out some rooms at my house and my grandparents house for all of them to stay at, lots of aunts and uncles and their wifes/husbands and all their kids lol. Also need to cut my fucking grass today lol.
>>151122815Chat decided that the comic will be called Don't Touch The Gnome!>Thread questionStarting it frfr this timeAlso, this means that Janek will end up being a deciding main cast character, despite only appearing after several chapters. Is this a problem and should I tease his existence in the comic before fully showing him? Or doesn't it matter, like in Berserk or DragonBallz, where the name starts off as just a name?>Picrel minimally related
>>151133212thanks, glad you like it>I found a link to your discord on newgrounds after reading a bunch of your comic but the link was dead fixed that
>>151131670Looking back now, yeah, it sounds pretty childish.It’s all fixed now, though. I redid most of the lines and reuploaded it. But thanks for your feedback!
I'm working on my comic, but I'm only posting it on my personal Discord because I would like to dump the entire finished chapter on Comicfury. Have some Blair Witch Project-esque scenes.
>>151133192>I broke no rules with this page and selected from a drop down menu that things like this would happen and be seen in this comic and it still got removed.You drew her with her whole pussy in detail and legs behind her head. Get real, man.
>>151133881Webtoon has a very strict policy on sexually gratifying imagery and he CLEARLY violated it and is straight up lying about it lol
Also Poppy and Zipper will return next year
>>151133901>he CLEARLY violated it and is straight up lying about it lolWait, I've heard this one before!
>>151134139If you want to do nsfw comics, that's totally fine and there's no issue with that but you have to put it on the right site. Webtoon is not that site, it has never been and never will be that site. Just find a different webcomic platform to put it on.
>>151133542joined, have to wait 10 minutes before saying hello.
>>151133881>>151133901I hear what yall are saying but i just dont think it's that bad desu. She is wearing clothes. She is sitting that way for a reason, cramped space and all.>sexually gratifying.matter of perspective I guess, it's not something I would jerk off to, so i thought it didn't fit that category. I am not saying yall are wrong, but I am not lying when I say I honestly didn't think it was that bad desu.>>151134139I know, I keep fucking up and not meaning too, I just cant make full blown SFW comics no matter how hard I try. >>151133930Nice pose!
>>151134478don't act crazy or make me regret having you thanks.
>>151134559No problem, just going to say "hello im a fan", and say your art looks cool when you post it from time to time. I wont post memes or music or my own artwork, you will barely notice I am there. If anyone is hostile because I am there, just for existing, I will just ignore them and not even try to defend myself.
>>151134540If you outline the pussy, it's an automatic "No" for the platform. This is just common sense, I fear.
>>151134595Is tapas any better, do they give artists more artistic freedom?
>>151134540>I just cant make full blown SFW comics no matter how hard I try.Mental issues
>>151134639Tapas has similar rules to Webtoon, ComicFury is maybe your best bet but it still has rules about sexual content. I would honestly suggest getting into Newgrounds because they recently made a comics publishing option and they allow NSFW.
>>151134703>ComicFury is maybe your best bet but it still has rules about sexual content.You just have to label it properly, and not do anything nasty like shota/ underage. Should be pretty easy for anyone with common sense.
>>151131818of course the words mean something I just didn't share it because part of the fun is figuring it out
>>151134703My impression is that Tapas is slightly less trigger happy. From experience they seem to let odd fucks by and some fairly lewd imagery aswell. I wouldn't post pussy, jumpsuit or not though.

>>151136212these have a lot of personality
>>151136212Good work
>>151130793>>151130799>>151130814Looking good so far!

>>151130025>A Cat Comic>I'm so bored.>Is there anything to do?>What the?!>What's your problem, why are you staring at me?! Weirdo...>>151130035>Hello there!>I'm a cat!>I love to sleep eat and play!>That's it I guess.>>151135127>Hello how are you? I'm doing great! My name is...Amateur hour.
do you people have a main inspiration? like a favorite author or comic/manga?
>>151132000I like the madness. The gangly one has a face that for some reason reminds me of a Rankin-Bass puppet. Pic not related.
>>151133267just finished page 5, check it out: https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/unicorn-collar/chapter-1-page-5-no-cap/viewer?title_no=1099061&episode_no=5&serviceZone=GLOBALRamen Soda let's herself go and we see her age into a little old lady ready to move on to the next life and be with her dead husband again, meanwhile the capsule AI frees himself from the starship capsule and starts calling him self Nocap as he stalks Ramen from the shadows over the decades she ages.
>>151137560Impressive
>>151138530Spelling errors fixed, need to slow down lol, its fixed on webtoons and deviantart.
>>151138530I just noticed I forgot to draw the shrine of her dead husband she is praying to in one of the bottom panels, fml, lol. eh... it kind of works as it is, but it's kind of bothering me i forgot to draw it, its on the sketch layer i just didn't ink it in... woops, but it kind of works how it is i think so i will leave it like that.
Havent worked on my webcomic in a while, considering reformating/redoing what ive already done into a more trad format cus idk if this is the way to go.really not feeling it rn
>>151138616>>151138708Nobody cares. Don't respond to this
Coolest kid in town is finally BACK FROM HIATUS!!!! new chapter coming this month
>>151138616>>151138708The people that care are quietly lurking. Once I posted a drawing that got zero replies and years later I saw someone using it as reaction pic in a drugfeel thread in /r9k/. Never think nobody cares.
>>151138288I think in my more comedic stuff I’m really inspired by stuff like Peanuts and comics by KC Green.
>>151138902The person who said they dont care, actually care enough to respond saying they dont care. Also I care and I am not nobody. god forbid I be overly excited about my comic I am making and just finished a page of lol.But thank you for your kind words anyway.
>>151139019You need to slow down and just post the finished piece once it’s done when it’s actually correct and up on your platforms. You will take this as a knock on you for being excited and defend yourself by saying that you’re bumping the threads, but it’s not and you’d have a lot more people willing to look at your work if you had work that was polished the FIRST time.
>>151122815>What webcomic- related achievement are you proudest of in 2025?25 pages scheduled for upload or uploaded this year, and three more in the works.I also almost have enough portraits to fill up the cover.Yeah, it's a fandom comic, but still, getting a bit of readership for something I honestly don't put much effort into is a pretty good return.
>>151139019>Also I care and I am not nobody.Kek
>>151139081This looks fucking based>>151139065Seconded. No other artist posts every WIP as they go, and 90% of the artists here are better than Bonez
>>151139065No you're fine, this is a valid criticism, you're not wrong. I really should of stacked some pages before launching this new comic. The quality would be a lot higher for sure. After I get to a certain point in this comic I want to stop and just go back to normal drawings for a while and any pages I make in that time can be stacked and repeatedly checked for mistakes and errors.
I should probably temper my expectations, tend to try and push out a project as quickly as possible, sacrificing quality and getting frustrated with the final result.
>>151138607The title alone in this case solves almost 25% of the cipher, giving you 4/5 of the most common letters in English which statistically represent ~32% of any given text. From there solving two letter words is trivial, giving you E, M, S, D. 'TH' is the most common letter pair, 't_e' is easily guessed, and that gives 'what' and 'why'. That's 5/6 vowels and 14/26 total characters from casual analysis, accounting for almost 70% of all letters in any given text. Filling in the blanks after that is nothing, giving you everything but F, J, K, Q, V, X and Z. That's all from three panels >>151130025. The schizo comic in the catbox file gives 'F' and >>151130035 gives 'V'. There's nothing you can really do to defeat statistical analysis of a monoalphabetic substitution cipher encoding plain language. It doesn't help that 'a cat' looks like 'a cat' or that the file name confirms the title. There's additional challenges to encoding unique to the case of a comic, you're providing a ton of additional context to something that can already be defeated by web-based client-side javascript using a tiny fraction of the computational power of a smartphone, like self-indicating or waving while presumably saying a greeting with a subsequently repeated letter in it when the most commonly doubled letter in English is 'L'. There are things you can do to slow down analysis at least to as long as it took for you to create it using a simple font and without adding significant cognitive load to the encoding process. Intentional misspellings are a good example, and in the same vain, swapping graphemes. But as soon as it becomes apparent that you're doing it, the jig is basically up.
>>151139081Looks fun, anonI just started reading Warrior Cats to my daughters (my first time reading it)I'll check it out
