Chapter 7: IN SPACE! should be launching this weekend. I know I said that last weekend, but this time I mean it.
Crossover series is coming along swimmingly. Also me and Passer hashing out a new series. Shits happening.
Gonna dump some new shit
>Question: Did you have a good thanksgiving? Yes, a lovely dinner with my parents, and for the first time, my vulture relatives didnt join us. I've been begging for a low key thanksgiving since I was 8 years old. Man, quarantine has been good to me.
>In a dystopian desertpunk future, the world is split up into a series of constantly warring city-states. These city-states are ran by vicious bloodthirsty warlords. These warlords are the very essence of villainy. >Dan is a delusional manchild who fancies himself one of these villainous warlords. >his entire concept of a supervillain is learned from saturday morning cartoons. >He vows to conquer the world himself, and prove that he is the most evil villain of all time. >In the process he develops a following because his brand of evil is not remotely as evil as the actual warlords, in fact he is making their lives considerably better. >His followers just have to keep the delusion going so his warlord killing spree doesnt end.
The main cast >Dan: our titular Dark Lord of Destruction, Discord, Devastation, and other Demonstrably Demonic D-words >Valarie: His second in command, confidant, and care taker. She is the Jessie to his James. She plans on ending the ceaseless wars of the Warlords by fully enabling Dan's idiocy and using him as a weapon. She constantly dotes on him, and takes care of him. May even have feelings for him, which is why she is a bit tortured with the fact that she is totally manipulating him. >Dave: The chief mechanic and engineer. He is technically Dan's hostage. He was taken prisoner as a bargaining chip, and wasnt particularly eager to go back. He is bored, disdainful, and the only straight man of the group. He is constantly reminded of his prisoner status when he doesnt want to work. >Francesca: The crew's doctor. A brilliant scientist who has performed medical miracles from what she has learned from her macabre fascination with corpses. She is always tired, sarcastic, and has her own goals and motives at heart. She sticks around, because Dan is a wonderful test subject, and there is a never ending supply of corpses for her to play with. She has a thick french accent.
Are you switching to this new comic, or are you going to do multiple comics simultaneously? I read a bit of Tad Danger, and so far, it's really interesting!

pages done for this week. i'm already behind for next week. i need to get my own typeface done already.
I'm doing both. Passer is handeling all the artwork, so all I have to do is write. And that is only really if people are interested in it. We are working on a pilot to see what people think. Tad isnt going anywhere. Chapter 7 soon.
I realize I'm taking a huge risk here, but I've lurked /hyw/ off and on for years, and I learned a lot from these threads so far. So, I'm going to post my comic so you can tell me how good or shitty it is. I either haven't had much motivation this year, or I'm busy with something long term and can't do anything with it until I have more free time. I know my cover page looks like shit, but I haven't had the chance to redraw it yet. endingwake.thecomicseries.com/
I fucking HATE writing villains. Especially the big bad. I keep trying to give her some kind of charisma, but she inevitably just ends up as a bootleg Dr. Eggman.

Know that feeling, i just hd ideas for cool characters but my comic is just in its first chapters
To be fair, I think it can be refreshing sometimes to just have straight up villainy villains. Of course, it depends on the kind of story you're trying to tell.
The problem is more in giving her a personality than MO or motive. She actually very much an old school "fuck you I'm evil" type antagonist. Terrorist who starts conflicts for profit, if you're curious.
But again, whenever I try to flesh her out as a person, she ends up being too Eggman-esque for my liking.

I've made écorchés and anatomy stuff with polymer but haven't made a full blown characters yet. What kind of clay is that?
Thomas Brown
You should feel honored, go read the last thread.
