webcomic progress

I've begun trying to work on comics and how you approach it really depends on your experience you have with it.

I think the best comics, and stories in general, work as a series of 'events' almost like a string of small stories or episodes that stand on their own, but work into an overall plot. If you feel creative or just want to try it out from the word go, It's good to go with a character, or concept and see how it pans out - maybe the smaller events will spark ideas for an overall story? maybe you'll find a way to work them into something bigger. all-in-all, it's best to start with the small details and work with them little by little, towards something grand. Don't force-feed the reader with information.

Also I've found that it's good to not be overly 'precious' about your comic. Avoid going into the road of obsession because It can warp your percpetion and opinion on your story. It'll get the point where you've thought so much about what the characters favourite colour, food, hobby is that it's like your laughing nervously while crying; "hey! see this character?!? arn't they great!??"

um, In terms of practical advice i guess: get as many of the pages, if not ALL of them done, before you show them - then you don't have to worry about working every week to meet the deadline.

you proberbly know all this by now i guess tho x__x
