Lovely Thread.
> QoTT
I would say it’s surrealism more than realistic dialogue. I struggle with dialogue a lot for being schizo and not able to talk normally so I might as well embrace it. I just recently started drawing my comic and it is my first comic after all

A new /cmg/ comic making general would be better than this but mmg is allows comics anyway so its sorta useless

It also allows nodraws, neither is beneficial to the general.

Fucking deserved. /hyw/ threads have been an utter fucking cancer for over 3 years now due to just being so goddamn terrible. A combination of community pariahs deciding to poison the well for everyone and zoomzoom newfag shitposters who don't draw but want to make someone their new lolcow to obsess about.

At the same time, I think it's just the fact the threads just die so quickly and that people are tired of the shitposters and pariahs controlling the threads.

Now fuck off. /mmg/ is /ic/'s webcomic general.
>>
>>7819958
Do comicfags deserve help? Let's take a look.

you don't need to if you're only ever going to release it digitally, but one day you might decide to do a physical print edition and you'll kick yourself for not just working with margins in mind from the start. you lose nothing by just working with print margins from the beginning.

Why does the caged bird sing, nigga?
>>
>>7820018
/co/ in general attracts a lot of bitter idea guys and schizo's in itself. It's also that the webcomic general is about people putting you and your work out to others, some want to have the extra attention and make it about just themselves. Those people do get pariah'd by the community, but instead of learning from their errors and moving on to different waters to better themselves, they dedicate their online time shitting up the place. Add the fact that /co/ is one of the worst moderated boards on 4chan and you have a decent small but tight-knit community devolve into shitposters and community cancers fighting eternally in a turd ouroboros.
>>
>>7820018
after 20 years of this general's existence all you have left are those who never found success and as a result are insanely jealous towards anybody who shows a shred of promise. good artists do not last long in this general because these faggots have a habit of doxxing anybody who stands out
>>
>>7820018
I honestly don't know.

How do you even dox here? Who is retarded enough to let that happen?

It's the type of dedicated mental illness you don't want festering on this board. They dox entire families and swat fags on /hyw/ because they hate eachother so much. Not even kidding.
>>
>>7820017
Thanks bro
>>
>>7820030
They have their discord and since people link off-site webcomics I can imagine that they find a way to scrape their info and start from there. There was a guy just a few years ago who was fb doxxed and schizos were pestering an artist to post his ass to prove it wasn't him (which he did, funnily enough)
>>
>>7820034
>which he did, funnily enough

Technically arent we all making comics anyway?

I post on mmg a good bit, and while my style is partly influenced by Araki, I mainly use euro artists as my refs. Most on mmg dont look like manga artists, they’re influenced by manga.

I guess the big difference, and what you guys are mocking is capeshit, which is synonymous with comics. Manga can be about anything, where as most comics, and unfortunately webcomics, are pretty shallow
>>
>>7820018
Only the most autistic mentally ill people enjoy webcomics and western cartoons past age 15.
>>
>>7820018
>>7820065
Look at the stuff they talk about in /co/

Literally threads with hundreds of replies about childrens shows, or even shows for babies.

This isnt anime, where it can be enjoyed by people of different ages, no these are literally baby cartoons theyre obsessing over.

Its honestly creepy
>>
>>7820059
noone cares to split hairs on this, /mmg/ was objectivity better until /hyw/fag migrated into it an drove the quality into the ground. now this unintergrated faggots want to drag their baggage here to make a bad board worst. just fuck off
>>
>>7820065
>>7820070
I'm sorry and I hate the state of /co/, but don't pretend you're not just some weeb who makes his faux-manga webcomic on an American forum website.
You're not making manga, George. You're making webcomics with a Japanese-influenced artstyle.
>>
>>7820059
It's the other way around, comics can be anything but manga can only be manga.
>>
>>7820070
>childrens shows, or even shows for babies
Some kids shows are alright but the toddler shit really pisses me off, I just avoid those threads because there's no point going in and seething at people.
>>
>>7820065
>>7820070
Look at my grown up show for adults because its japan. You have to be at least 18 to watch Jewelpet the most hardcore anime for adults.
>>
>>7820070
Anime isn't as adult as you think it is.

That being said, yes /co/ 100% loves shows made for toddlers.
>>
>>7820072
/mmg/ is still doing just fine. The problem is people responding to shitposters which /hyw/ is infinitely worse at refraining from.
>>
>>7820078
>Anime isn't as adult as you think it is.
This is almost entirely an american problem. The shows made for 10 year olds in japan are considered like pg-13 in america.
>>
co is for babies
a is for teens

I caught wind of that.
I didn't know what a lolcow was, but my instincts picked up that I was being singled out for some bulllshit. There are some sick people out there man, sick sick people. mostly homosexuals.

Anime by and large isnt for adults, its like alot of the disney renaissance movies in which they are aimed at a younger audience but can be enjoyed by anybody.

Im a cinephile and watch alot of “adult” movies, but who really cares or defines what makes something adult. Alot of “adult” shows ive watched like reacher or landman were very “adult”, but pretty shallow in their characters, stories and themes.

Anime while aimed ata younger audience, is often more interesting in its themes, story and characters.

I mean none of my favourite shows or movies are anime or animated , but i want to make something thats as kino as In Bruges, Prisoners, Better Call Saul and Cure 1997
