If I may make a suggestion on the modeling-program subject, sass aside: Check out Design Doll. It's got a much better UI than Poser in my opinion, and it's free to download. The only feature it keeps to premiums, is the ability to LOAD files. Of course, no program like this should be used as a tracing crutch. There are simply some angles and some Jojo poses that do not exist in photography, and it never hurts to get a good look. harrodeleted posted:(Hey Scribblehatch!)

Man. Webtoon seems to be the given name for scrolling-type comics. And you wouldn't know it from just hearing the name. You'd think it was animated!

(http://gobi-baptiste-gaubert.tumblr.com/post/76954228776/just-as-a-reminder-im-the-author-of-this-comic) Throwing a stroke around foreground elements can be a big help. That aura helps them pop. Scribblehatch fucked around with this message at 11:07 on Aug 18, 2015 |

Is that how the program lays them out? Because I keep my pages aligned kinda like that in Sai, but it's all very manual. (And I kinda like it)

Actually. What I found worked wonders was ordering a screen protector from photodon.com, getting cotton gloves from a CVS, cutting the thumb, index, and middle fingers off them for the right hand, and then ordering felt stylus nibs (each individual nib lasts about a week before getting too grungy.) This is how I solved my "feels like drawing on glass" and "my hand drags across it, when it didn't on paper" problems. For a cintiq, anyway.

Oh I never posted this beat here. http://chaosinthetropics.com/archive/ch1beat15 (warning: some nudity) I don't plan to make another beat this long in the foreseeable future. Did have fun with 'the effect' in it though. These kindsa things are why I'd recommend most people get their own code from scratch if possible. You can have anything happen, potentially.

I've used Project Wonderful twice now. I'm beginning to rule it out. Thousands of unique views can result in 8 clicks total. With google ads as I know it, you pay a dime for each click. And that may actually be more economical.

Youtube adblock, I fully understand. I use it myself. That poo poo saves you time in your life. But innocuous little banners? I don't get it. D: Even my editor has it. I would not have found my EDITOR, someone who loves the comic, by casting out a net. How bleak! Shout outs and word of mouth seems like an extreme matter of luck. Because nevermind how randos find you; How did those busy creators find you? People who made it this far by using Project Wonderful, have no idea what to tell this newer fold. This problem, sure only to get worse, is no person's fault. But you also can't force camaraderie. So what's to be done? I think... there need to be more reviewers? I dunno, that'd be a good start. Maybe.

Ah I wasn't aware they were all caught in the same net. Pop up ads, ads with audio/video never should have started happening. I agree. When I say innucuous, I mean an image that doesn't move (unless it's a gif, and then it moves a leetle beet)

Star Wars is the good kind of stealing from Kurosawa. The bad kind would probably be Fistful of Dollars. Where you lift SHOT FOR SHOT, and assume no one will ever find out.

Ah but one had permission and the other didn't. Kurosawa sent a letter to Sergio Leone: "It's a fine film, but it's my film." Haw.

People interested in your lore strikes me more as a reward instead of a destination. Like, I love the Cowboy Bebop world. Every time I rewatch it, I try to piece together something different. But all this is only because I care so much about all the connections I made with the "plot" and the characters.

One thing I wish manga would start doing, is crediting their assistants. Or at least disclose how many assistants worked on it! But I sorta understand why they don't, if it's anything like the reason there's so many joke credits in japanese video games.

Almost done with this creature. This is an idea for a series of short fanfic comics. I know I won't be pursuing this level of detail in the future bits. Assuming I continue. All this was me breaking in Clip Studio for a comic, without it actually being MY comic. Praise be to Clip Studio. It's worth your dosh.

Have any of you guys seen that one documentary about Apocalypse Now? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearts_of_Darkness:_A_Filmmaker%27s_Apocalypse I was just thinking about it and how it explores the utter despair of creating work in isolation. And the relief of getting it done. It's really good.
