>>7819824Lovely Thread.> QoTTI 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> link?https://www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/vis-vitalis/list?title_no=1095090Warning is BL so it may not be your taste
>>7819824Delete this
>>7819824wrong board
>>7819877>>7819872>>7819831This shit gets instantly deleted off of /co/
>>7819884Lmfao
Should I care about margins if I'm only going to release it digitally?
>>7819884Yeah because of all the autistic drama, which is exactly why we dont want this here
>>7819824>/hyw/ on /ic/ instead of /co/Great, I've been looking for this thread for weeks.
>>7819884Yea because your community is terrible and your threads attract schizos. Your kind got kicked out of mmg for a reason.
>>7819859Hate the general webtoon panel format but the art is nice
>>7819824Just make a comic art gerenal fags dont bring your 20year cancer threads here.
Normally I'd welcome containment threads, but not ones that are going to attract autists from other boards.
>>7819919A new /cmg/ comic making general would be better than this but mmg is allows comics anyway so its sorta useless
>>7819922>mmg is allows comics anywayIt also allows nodraws, neither is beneficial to the general.
>>7819922retard couldn't be bothered to lurk before making this thread kek
>>7819921I was already here to begin with, thanks. I'm a visitor to /co/, not the other way around.
>>7819912I'm not part of HYW
>>7819918I appreciate the comment, I picked the format for being popular with BL mostly
>>7819912It attracts people more interested in discussing drama and namefags than webcomics, like you.
>>7819922Make it anyway, noone is exactly bending backwards to help comic fags.
>>7819884Fucking 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.
>>7819958Do comicfags deserve help? Let's take a look.>big 2>almost nothing but forced woke slop by writers and artists who post tranny propaganda and political rants on twitter>indie scene >troonslop and muh depression and other millenial garbage with only a few standout decent books >surely my based 4channers know how to do comics right, after all they're the ones criticizing everything and decided to do their own stuff! >endless arguments about who is which namefag of the month, constant derailment, over half the actual creators jumping into their magnum opus without studying even five minutes of fundies>manga making general>people just making manga because it's their calling and helping each other outComicfags get what they fucking deserve.
>>7819824I haven't updated in almost three years so... not great. I really want to get back to it, though.
>>7819962Nigga, I just want somewhere to post my comic and I dont draw anime
>>7819966/mmg/ doesnt require anime. you should lurk more
>>7819963Shitassherehttps://globalcomix.com/a/dr-freebase
>>7819969nigga, its called manga making general, and I'm like low /beg/ skill wise, posting to a "webcomic" general is far more suitable for a lowly unskilled plebeian such as I.Truly.
>>7819973>I'm garbage I need my shit thread so I don't feel bad about myselfkill yourself, lurk more. Go to /mmg/ or better yet take your retarded ass back to /beg/
>only comic posted is gay faggot trannyslopGood job /hyw/, off to a great start.
>>7819977Worst part is this is one of the better HYW threads.
>>7819975I'm actually really great and amazing
>>7819979you just called yourself dogshit now go back to beg
>>7819897you 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.
Awfully crabby in here
>>7819985nobody wants you trannies to implant your shitty ass discord general here, go to fucking /i/ or something
>>7819980you misread
>>7819986/i/ would be great for this place
>>7819977I'll post a new page when it's done.
>>7819945I'd like to have been able to say more about it, but it's not fully viewable unless I sign in. There's nothing wrong with the format and it does seem to be used for a lot of romance webcomics, it's just not to my personal taste with all the white space.
>>7819973>>7819991>I'm like low /beg/ skill wise>a lowly unskilled plebeian such as Ilike I said, dogshit
>>7819998You misunderstood, I am actually really good and skilled
>>7820000I happen to know for fact that you are hot liquid ass
what's the deal with HYW? why do you guys hate them so much?
>>7819996You probably shouldn't bother, this thread is on its way out.
>>7820004they hard dox artists for nothing
>>7820004Look at this thread right now. This is HYW at its most civil, we don't even have our full roster of namefags and schizos.
>>7820003I am hot ass hell yeah>>7820009Heh
>>7820008Thank god im homeless
>>7819971Pretty slick art style
>>7820009Why does this happen? It's just a simple comic general.
>make thread away from everyone that ruins threads usually>thread is immediately demonized without a chance to prove itselfThis must be how the jews felt when they traveled to new lands.
>>7820018Why 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.
>>7820018after 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
>>7820018I honestly don't know.
>>7820025How do you even dox here? Who is retarded enough to let that happen?
>>7820023walt whitman over here
>>7820004It'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.
>>7820017Thanks bro
>>7820030They 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 enoughAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
give the schizos a chance, maybe they've changed
>>7820037t. schizo
>>7820037Yeah, changed into a different and worse personality.
>>7819958>>7819963Technically 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
>>7820018Only the most autistic mentally ill people enjoy webcomics and western cartoons past age 15.
>>7820018>>7820065Look 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
>>7820059noone 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>>7820070I'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.
>>7820059It's the other way around, comics can be anything but manga can only be manga.
>>7820070>childrens shows, or even shows for babiesSome 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>>7820070Look 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.
>>7820070Anime 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 babiesa is for teenstv is for the real men
>>7820083>/co/ is for lolicons>/a/ is for lolicons>/tv/ is for the real pedophilesftfy
>>7819962>but want to make someone their new lolcow to obsess about.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.
>pretending this embarrassment of a thread is any better than the average /hyw/post some comics or just let it slip to page 10.
>>7820083This>>7820084This
>>7820078>>7820073Anime 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
free my boy coldfusion, he did nothing wrong
My comic is good and you guys should read it
>>7820106I'll believe it when I see it
>>7820106God told me I can't read webcomics until. 2026 but he was fuzzy on whether or not I could shit up threads where I don't belong then act like the victim when called out.
>>7820109>>7820111Posted it earlier in the thread read itglobalcomix link

>>7820143Nigga, fuck you.
>>7820143what do you expect when you don't build a trust based society niggaaaaaa.
HYW experiencing the one thing they fail epicly at: gatekeeping.
>>7820153I don't think anybody wants in to warrant gatekeeping.
>>7819969Stop inviting /co/fags
>>7819971>>7820129nigga you got six fucking fingers on one hand why did you think this was good kek
>>7820018/hyw/ was targeted to hell and back by all sorts of trolls, mods never bothered to swat the shitheads so it festered over the years and the assholes still chase it around for some reason.
>>7820167You've been talking shit all thread, pyw faggot
>>78201786 fingers! 6 fingers bwahahahahahaa
>>7820184He also used "your" instead of "you're." Try harder, nodraw.
>>7820172these aren't rando trolls, these fags all know each other and are in the same discords servers. I know all about the number of times /hyw/ kept splintering off into more and more micro cliques because none of them can ever get along.
>>7820120>>7819971oh you're that guy! i didn't read your trip before posting. cool artwork.
>>7819824>hywi haven’t heard that name in years, i was just thinking about those old after dark threads the other dayanyways, put it back in the grave you dug it out of
Literally nobody else has attempted to post comics here.What a fucking joke
>>7820178I caught your six fucking fingers pal you dont draw better than me
>>7820204Poorly differentriated palm, my bad.Also drew that comic over a year ago so like whatever man.I actually completed something, which is something most of you faggots will never do.
hyw is on /ic/ now? that's funny. it can be even shittier now because you can post NSFW images.anyway , maybe it wont suck. as a sign of good fortune I will bless this thread with SNOW JOB
>>7820208>completedYou're sketchslopping your way through oneslots in hopes of convincing your failed comic server that you draw better than you actually do. Noone outside of your /hyw/ is impressed with this shit.
>>7820212Pyw nigga
>>7820212Also not in any hyw/comic servers nigga get better bate
>>7820214why dont you post something new instead of posting year-old slop as a representative of your work
>>7820219Am working on something but its not done yet. I'll get it done over christmas, follow my page and youll see it when I post it.
>>7820220post a wip
>>7820204>you dont draw better than meNot that we'll ever know
>>7820210>maybe it wont suckWait until bro reads the rest of the thread.
>>7820219>why dont you post somethingIronic.
