Hi!! I’m Moss and I’m gonna use this account to try and write more.

If you’re here bc you enjoy writing, or you’re curious over a specific character Death that you made fanart for and are now concerned, idrc. Just enjoy the ride. I might do QnA with my OCs on here but that’s a BIG maybe.

Here’s the story’s first (and currently only) chapter!

Read Hostility from the story Predetermined by that-one-weirdo-420 (Mossy_void12) with 7 reads. sentience, evil, suici...

Me writing fics fr

#book is The Great Perhaps

I cannot describe the plots my brain comes up with when I’m riding my bike/running. Like “local man pissed off trans girl who couldn’t transition and now he can’t die.” Like give me the story and then I remember I have to write it.

Gaslighting is fun but making an entire account just to gaslight someone is funnier

paranormal-pal

Who the fuck would do that lmao

ghostly-freakshow

I know right? That would be horribly immature of someone and it would waste their time.

metaphysical-mate

I think it would be funny to do

I've been hiding the panels I've finished lining to see if I get less distracted. X'D

I am easily distracted by my own art.

a tutorial-adjacent thing about how i make comics

this is just a general guide on how i personally do things, and i'm gonna keep it pretty simple. let's get into it!

for this tutorial i'm gonna be drawing some trainers trying to find a particular pokémon.

i'm gonna jump ahead a little here and show my finished sketch for the full page, so we can see the end goal.

the best advice i have is to treat panels as part of the composition. make them work for you. reading a bunch of comics will help inspire you--there are so many creative things you can do with panels.

next, placing dialogue bubbles! these are a bit more complex than they seem at first glance.

once you've got all that sorted, you can move onto the fun stuff, like lining and coloring. keep in mind that you can partially cover dialogue bubbles, break panel lines, etc. do whatever gets your message across. like so:

you can also apply these guidelines to much simpler comics, too. really, flow is the most important thing, in my opinion. it's like a line of action when you're drawing poses. here's a comic i did that's basically just talking heads, but the bubbles and art still flow together to draw the reader's eye along a path. here's a jokey little scribble comic that does something similar. making a good comic is not about polish at all. it's more about readability, composition, and making your dialogue and art work together.

scott mccloud's book making comics has a lot more useful information than what i can fit on one post. it's been a hot minute since i read it (and by that i mean like. twelve years) but it's a solid resource. you can also just read comics or webcomics that you like and see how those illustrators do it. one of my personal favorites is cucumber quest. it starts off very simple, but by chapter 3 (especially near the end) the artwork, panel choices, effects, etc all work together to make every page a stunning work of art.

anyway, as always please feel free to reach out if there's any part of this that you'd like elaborated on, clarified, if you just have questions, etc. i'm not a teacher by any stretch of the imagination but i love helping people with this sort of thing, so please don't hesitate!

[ image ID: an 8 panel comic with Sap Ball. It reads “1: “Hello reader. Yes, you.”

2: “this is probably a cliché in your world. I DONT CARE.”

3: “if you’re reading this story I hate you. all my bad life happenings and all their good ones *are caused by you*”

5:” don’t look at me like that. Stop reading.”

6: “ignore the numbers. Favor the morals. Leave.”

8: “look, you’re here for my suffering, right? So, I’ll tell you the last story you’ll ever read, and then you will NEVER read another ‘fictional’ story like mine. Once you agree, read the next page.”” ]
