I don't know what to say other than get more used to drawing aesthetically pleasing comic books, because if the story's good, you could be drawing it for the next twenty years.

2019-04-02 00:53:04 UTC  

Most comic book guys are in it for the long haul.

2019-04-02 00:53:48 UTC  

It's a pretty solid career if you can devote the time to doing it.

2019-04-02 00:54:10 UTC  

Yeah, It's just that I've got my own plans I need to pursue

2019-04-02 00:54:44 UTC  

and I did not expect that 12 pages would take me such a ridiculously long time

2019-04-02 00:55:33 UTC  

I can definitely understand it being not compatible time-wise with college, it's a profession, and a great way to spend time doing something intensive that makes money in the long run.

2019-04-02 00:56:12 UTC  

Most modern comic book artists only do poorly because of politics and bad writing affecting their sales, it's more often the message that the book holds that's wrong rather than the artist.

2019-04-02 00:56:47 UTC  

Good story plus good art equals a living, so don't be afraid to turn down bad stories if it's not worth the effort.

2019-04-02 00:58:43 UTC  

yeah, this one seems good though, that's why I'm trying to help the guy out a little by looking for someone more suited for that kind of job than me

2019-04-02 00:59:18 UTC  

What was his time-frame?

2019-04-02 01:00:32 UTC  

Well, unlimited for now... he's mostly trying to get some proof-of-concept stories done, so that he can show them off.

2019-04-02 01:01:20 UTC  

Really? And how far have you come? If he's not in any rush, it would be a great opportunity to teach him how long it takes when a college student is doing it in their spare time instead of as a profession.

2019-04-02 01:01:50 UTC  

It'll be a leaning moment for him and it'll be a boon for you too since you didn't flake out on him and waste his time.

2019-04-02 01:02:25 UTC  

Patrons are generally very generous when there's no set deadline.

2019-04-02 01:02:52 UTC  

I mean look at B Clay Moore! People have been waiting on his Kickstarter for FOUR YEARS and none of the cucks have called him out on it without being called Nazis.

2019-04-02 01:03:37 UTC  

It's not your full-time job, AND you're seeing it through anyway, that's a sign that you can turn it into a career and get business later.

2019-04-02 01:05:38 UTC  

That seems to be something college students don't understand, since modern school has taught them to multitask instead of devoting their life to doing one thing well, since that takes literally all your time.

2019-04-02 01:06:32 UTC  

Yeah, you're right

2019-04-02 01:07:00 UTC  

I mean, doing multiple things is a good idea, but you have to be working towards a specific goal

2019-04-02 01:07:39 UTC  

And the more comics you do, the better you get at them. Being able to do what you're attempting now is the end-goal of art school.

2019-04-02 01:07:55 UTC  

It is the reason people go to college in the first place!

2019-04-02 01:10:06 UTC  

So yes, don't stress yourself. See it through, take as much time as is necessary to deliver a fantastic product.

2019-04-02 01:14:02 UTC  

Yeah, you know what? I think you're right

2019-04-02 01:14:09 UTC  

I'll stay on board then

That format will be the new 90s website

2019-04-02 20:32:40 UTC  

@Hiddenhope was this meant to be in <#556763476924694528> or one of the pol channels? This is the art channel.

2019-04-02 20:32:58 UTC  

ok

2019-04-03 10:27:16 UTC  

@everyone whenever someone says white privilege I almost want to kill myself. Those 2 words are like the worst thing ever, I can’t believe their not like the two most hated words put together.

2019-04-03 10:27:51 UTC  

Oh that's nothing compared to "community."

2019-04-03 10:27:57 UTC  

Thanks to my white privlege I burn eaiser in the sun

2019-04-03 10:28:17 UTC  

That's the worst, that's rule one of my personal code, never trust anyone who uses the word "community."

2019-04-03 10:28:39 UTC  

Somewhere down at five or six is people who use the Katakana shrug emoji.

2019-04-03 10:30:00 UTC  

Random idiot; our “”””community””””

Me: kys

2019-04-03 10:30:43 UTC  

Yeah, because they always presume to speak for you and for everyone, and use everyone as a bludgeon against everyone else like a conniving bitch.

2019-04-03 10:32:27 UTC  

I think I hate "that's abliest" one of the most

2019-04-03 10:32:50 UTC  

Or anything about speaking on behalf of all disabled people

2019-04-03 10:32:59 UTC  

Eh, I can ignore that one, claims like that are hollow and should not be recognized.

2019-04-03 10:33:15 UTC  

You can just say "that's not a thing."

2019-04-03 10:33:26 UTC  

Nothing grinds my gears more than some cunt trying to tell me my joke is offensive to myself

2019-04-03 10:33:53 UTC  

Or you can bust out your own disabilities and pity points which you don't normally flaunt and beat them at their own game, and force them to give up their untenable position.
