hay guise its bin awhile .

but right to biasness I after trashing my first project am now taking on my secant, wondering peoples advise on keeping a project fresh and interesting from the creative punt off view. I just got so sick of the concept and art still of my last pees it was awful. I remember some of the collative in one off the pod casts talking about using multiple stiles of art I wont to try it just not in a campy clone stamp way.

in my experience so far, my comic feeling stale is a sign that I need to do more writing. sometimes that involves revising whatever I have scripted but not yet drawn, sometimes it's just writing new stuff. that usually gets me feeling about things again.

Sometimes it is just a matter of finding the right material.

I've found it easier to work with something I'm passionate about, rather than trying to conform to what I think readers want. Readers are important to be sure, but balancing what your audience wants and what you enjoy about your story is very important!

on this I think the biggest problem I had with 'self-help' was that I finished the script before I even designed the curators.. haw for out ahead do you think the script shooed be from the finished illustrations

I'm still figuring this out, to be honest. I like knowing the ending I'm driving toward, but sometimes I find myself getting impatient -- the new scene is seems way cooler than the one I'm drawing, so let's just rush through everything so I can do that.

One thing that helps is writing side stories using the same setting as the comic, but which don't directly relate to the main story. It lets me feel like I'm still moving forward, but since it's not part of the comic, it doesn't make the comic feel like an obstacle.

hmm I'll try that with this new pees ,though I wonder haw I shooed parcel out my time. with the last pees it took me about a week to finish a page, meaning to keep up a buffer and posed ones week and do side story's id have to take brakes from the mane story often ... dame even wen I did trace I was beater at sprints I need billed artistic stamina
