Your gateway to endless inspiration
Mindless ramble. I’m so annoyed with this. I’m always going in two different directions even when my own oc’s storylines! Like brah, they are YOUR head gobblins. But here I am once again contemplating like it’s a life or death decision for my life!
like I’m sure there is a way to figure it out, some kind of happy medium.
but nooooo.
Most of my life I drew comics on darn-near anything, mostly printerpaper. In middle school, I'd draw them on GRAPH PAPER because it made doing the paneling easier and tidy.
Nowadays, if Im doing a tournament, I still tend to format things as though for print - though I doubt I'll print most of it.
For fan works, most of it is on social media like tumblr or bsky which folks mostly read on mobile... So instead of assuming people are looking at the entire page at once, its often easier to do panel by panel in a long vertical stretch. It changes how you convey and think about time and action. ITS WEIRD. I know thats the norm for most webcomics, though much of the ones I still enjoy (tigertiger, unsounded, wilde life) still use a print page-like format.
dunno, tossing it out there for comic thoughts!
