Hi! It's been a really, really long time. I have since moved from Tapas over to Webtoon because you just get more traffic there. However, I decided to upload a mirror for the comic I've been doing. How are you guys? I've been good! I have quit my former job to pursue art seriously about 10 weeks ago and so far so good. I can't believe how much work I can get done now that I have time. I still go help out around the shop one day out of the week but it's not like before. Bless my husband for taking on the brunt of things. Anyway, I started a new comic that features an alchemist plague doctor and a capricious vampire. Have a great day!
Have you tried asking the artists you are currently sub'ed to if they would be willing to cross plug each other's comics? You plug theirs, they plug yours. Maybe you all could gain a few more subs. I have found a few new comics when artists plug their friends' work. Some were during guest comics, "Here is a guest comic from my insanely talented friend..." Some were just, "Hey, my good friend has this great comic over here. Check it out..."
Fanart or art swaps definitely help! I know participating in one gave us a boost a while back. Doing a bit of regular tweeting helps give it a nice boost as well. Often, it's slow and steady with sites like this.
I understand. The feeling of "I can't do this perfectly so I cannot do anything" is a tall obstacle to overcome. Please don't psyche yourself out. Your work is beautiful!
That is exactly what I struggle with. It's really difficult and I get into these bouts of thinking my art sucks which I really am not proud of so I just step away and doodle. Thank you for your kind words, I hope I can be kinder to myself and just publish what I want to already
Are we allowed to flat out say that you're pretty fuckin awesome? Thanks for sharing your art with us. It takes time to find your confidence, but I'm sure you'll get there over time! --Adam
