My 13 chapter long 80s OVA art style graphic novel. I need to learn to storyboard. I wrote out the story like a college thesis paper but I am having a lot of trouble breaking that down into just illustrations and dialog. I've been breaking it down into a script to get some kind of structure but it's really hard to turn a scene into a few drawings. I don't understand how artists choose the perfect mouth shape when a character says a sentence. Composition means something. They're is always an implied meaning in the way you frame a scene. The perspective and lighting mean something and although I'm passionate about the story and the character designs, turning that into a comic is not coming naturally. It's forcing me to constantly be doing my best which means facing my shortcomings. And it wouldn't matter if these were just practice sketches but it's a story I wrote and that I really want to tell and get out there. So it is a shitty feeling to publish something with my name on it that isn't up to my own standard.

This is about a semi-retired magical girl that runs a bakery and meets interesting magical people, while mentoring a new generation of heroes. She occasionally adorably berates you for being a naughty boy.

I just want to draw a comic, but what kind of story I tell depends on what period of my life I was at that moment. I learn to draw as a mean to that end but also because I am having fun.

My overly ambitious idea is something that is similar to both fritz the cat; some episodes of Love death and robots and Trainspotting.

Basically the idea is a psudorealistic slice of life black comedy with gay anthropomorphic animals (I'm not a furry) that then goes into a strange avant-garde direction, with a non-generic anime/animated soundtrack

My less ambitious idea at the moment is to get proficient enough at drawing to make a short comic based on, Talking Heads - Seen and Not Seen, for the 40th anniversary of the album Remain In Light

Actually my ambition is to be as pretentious as possible.

It's this story I've been making up in my head since I was a kid. I never really cared about sharing it with others, but I wanted to learn how to draw and bring it to life for myself, you know? Most of the time I do just normal illustrations of scenes from the story, but I want to start learning how to set up beautiful comic pages, too.

making a hybrid xenogears/escaflowne/princess mononoke digital comic series. i’ll initially git gud enough for some concept paintings to show off before that. and of course there’s writing the actual story, as well as planning out the whole world and possible universe it takes place in. i see the project taking 4-8 years to get started, so who knows if the interest will even last.
