The Urge To Make A Comic But Not Having Any Full Fleshed Out Stories Is-

yippee

stepped out of my comfort zone and actually posted some of my writing/fanfiction

got my first kudos 😭💕 thank you random guest glad you like my writing. Ive never really shared my fanfiction other than with one friend on discord, ive shared so much of it with them lol shout out to them, so it just feels werid to share it on a site like ao3

To celebrate I made a small doodle of it, funnily enough though I am one of the biggest ock fans but my first shared fanfiction is sandman centered💀

If interested feel free to take a peek, Its gonna be a collection of little, mainly romance, stories. idk might try out others

map part

my first youtube video in 2 years 👀I'm getting the most out of this adobe student subscription.

Im proud because I haven't finished a full animation in 2 years. Idk how like 13 year old me was grinding out map parts while I was in highschool 💀

Anyway enjoy snowfall!

hello!! opal from the dangerous gift would be really cool if you're still taking requests !

confession time, I seriously thought snowfall and lynx were exes when reading the book at first. like they had a highschool romance that broke off vibes 💀 The whole school rivals thing flew over my head

Anyways I love opal, shes so fun. Might be bias cause I love a good silly spirit that helps the main character.

Found family 💕💕

These guys concept art has been sitting in my sketchbook for months now.

Im a sucker for found family villain groups

big boss man just got back from jail

lemme introduce you to the gang

1. Dexter(Hugging dude on the bottom), The boss of the villainy group. A dopey but somehow successful supervillain. Hes very smart book wise and is quite charasmatic

2. Jane(Girl on the bottom panel), the right hand. She used to be a heros sidekick til she was offered more pay being a right hand for a villain. Jane and dexter are most certainly dating/ in love

3. Lewie (guy on the 1st panel to the left), henchman. He works here because no other job would hire him given his past. Lewie is a sarcastic ass and enjoys hanging with his best friend Olna

4. Olna (Alien gal) henchman. Shes the youngest on the crew but isnt to be trifled with. she enjoys pulling pranks and joking around with Lewie

5. Peaches (hairless cat ) henchman. Shes a debby downer. shes always here to remind you what could go wrong with something. She has the best fashion sense on the team. shes also the only one who can keep Rex under control.

6. Rex (sleepy puppy) henchman. He is not the brightest of the bunch. He is the muscle though. He would never let anything harm the team he is beyond loyal to the group. hes the biggest lovebug of the team.

hope you enjoy the concept

I wont start a new world

I say as I start a new world...

Welcome to a world filled with weirdos (extraterrestrials and cosmic horrors), Wannabes (not very threatening villains and evil doers) and WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!?'s (demons, cryptids, etc)

3 time galactic veteran Garmon has been tasked with starting the MDF (Midwest. Defense. Force.) after reports of weird activity have been more frequent in the heartland. Found it hard to find recruits as most of the midwest people were already busy with their own lives and no one from the parent organization wanted to go the the boring ol midwest. So the parent organization threw him a bone by "recruiting" 3 kids from the local orphanage.

(1st image from left to right) Fiadh, Helen, and Stella. Fiadh was most excited about the situation and got used to the weird arrangement quickly while Helen and stella were freaked out. If anything it did confirm some things for the girls as they each had previous run in's with weird or unexplainable encounters. Fiadh is most interested in the WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!?'s as odd creatures and beasts are very cool to her. Helen follows in Garmons steps with interest in 'weirdos' as she'd love to go to space one day and enjoys hearing stories of distant galaxies from Garmon. Stella has interest in the 'wannabes' having always looked up the super heros, she one day wants to be a super hero herself.

During their training though they ran into the witch Astraea. Astraea had been hiding out in the secluded flat lands of the midwest, perfect place to do weird magical things without interruption. Also the perfect area for a retired WAE (Witches. Against. Evil. A rival group to the MDF's parent organization. As WAE used magic to fight evil while MDF is a tech n science based place) member. She was appalled that the defense force was nothing but children and that the children were taught nothing about magic and its uses against evil. She forced Garmon to move his lab to her basment that way the girls had their own room in her warm house and not just some cold lab.

I plan to exapand this world more and maybe make a few little comics out of it. Probably just short stories or test pages as I enjoy drawing weird creatures every now and again. As well as probably giving the MDF more battle ready recruits thus allowing the girls to have a bit more being a kid time 💕

The new flight rising breed

not my favs as I would love a bulkier dragon but I do love how their bald heads remind me of my dad lol

little of my clans own lore: Rune, Darkclover, and Balsoi my 3 level 25 dragons that do all the battling n collecting. Usually the one to "find" the new breed hatchlings in my lore. Rune is much more mature than his fellow guardians

He welcomed in Rock and Roll with maturity and kept his giggling co workers away from the brothers.

(my user is 00Whiteeyes00 if you wanna check out som eof my other dragons, though note I am doing some revamping. please ignore that a lot of my dragons arent fully fed 💀 im so bad at daily collecting and dont really have the food rn lol)

Mother I crave chaos

Another art dump of sorts. a lot of it is just cats and dragons as per usual. I swear im working on my own oc world stuff. i have a couple of unused ocs that im shoving together cause they deserve to not collect dust lol.

Pokemon oc

made a pokemon oc recently

Thalassa is a very successful model who decided to use her earnings to open "Large and in charge" a daycare for large Pokémon that are just a bit to big for the other daycare areas (ex wailords, a good chunk of legendaries, Alolan Exeggutors, and other taller than average Pokémon) Became a popular site and she was soon able to add on a gym. Her and her team of wailords became the water type gym with ease. Big man was her first Pokémon and has been on her team since she was a kid, spike is a battle hungry fella with a few extra spikes to match the name, old man is a wailord from the past, dun dun DUN is a robo wailord from the future, Grape is a shiny wailord, and Baby is the newest member of the team She loves all of them so much

Currently engaged to the fire type gym leader Pyr. Many media outlets are shocked by this as the fire type leader isnt a very popular man. Works a simple office job really only doing gym stuff on the weekends. To the other gym leaders though it is also a bit of a shock. They are rather opposites, Thalassa is a water gal who uses very big pokemon while Pyr is a fire guy with small pokemon. They love each other a lot though and prefer keeping their love life out of the nosy public eye anyways. 💕💕

here i sit

more clip studio paint practice

go wild for a little while and itll appear some how

...

buttt for fr tips and my own personal process

I often write out my comic like a story that way if its a longer comic I know how things are going to go. If its a shorter story though you can skip this and go into storyboard/plan mode if you feel confident

For example page 11 from a comic im working on with Master Weevil master of evil

Step 1 the story excerpt

all the way from my samsung notes app

"Tecton never stopped his glare, but I was used to it. He never liked my relationship with the villain. Partly about how long it had been going on behind his back. Partly for the PR nightmare it could create.

"I think Prisma should be to one to contact him. She did it last time and I believe a familiar face will be best." He flashed that condescending smirk. "Ok but what's our bribe? Villains will never work for free." Atlas perked up flipping through a tablet's screens. "We don't have a lot of resources… too much is being spent on helping our heros recover. We could try to get the government involv-" "No no. I think Prisma will be able to strike a fine deal with Master weevil… or get a quote I suppose." Tecton chuckled leaning further back in his seat."

Step 2 plotting out the pannels and dialogue

I would say plotting is the most important part as this is where you figure out how the scene is going to look and what text you are going to use to help it. Comics are fun because its easier to show not tell but that doesnt mean you cant accidentally show and not tell enough. Dont be afraid to add little tags to tell locations or times.

Dont get caught up in making these tiny plot pages look good. They dont need to as most likely youll be changing something at somepoint. So dont waste energy on simple planning.

One thing you should pay attention to is numbering pages and making sure any dialogue you write is with the proper page. This is from personal experience as Ill work on a comic for a little, forget, then come back so its best to have things clear.

Step 3 and onward

Sketch your page and place out the dialogue bubble. You may change up some lines or pannels at this stage to better fit in what you need and cut what you dont.

The rest is straight forward! Line, color, shade, etc!

overall your writing process for the comic will vary. Im more on the art side of comics so my writing isnt as detailed as my art ends up showing.

Hope some of my rambling helps and if I can give any final wisdom its to have fun! Comics become hell on earth if you dont have at least a little fun.
