Which side of this argument is Grudge on, anyway?
Talking heads, and no backgrounds. I know. I’m sorry. I’m still fighting personal creative issues.
Quantum Rip
A little imagination and a shaky grasp of science
Why not take some time and create a Story arc first, plan some key drawings that fit to the Story. Then seriously give that Story some life with your drawings. You dont Need to be slave to your own Story arc but better not to drift off too far. Ask some guys or make a Research in the net about that Thing first.
Too boring? Your current procedure is no procedure I am afraid it leads you into dead Ends only. Your Characters are good enough and you apparently have a background Scenario alreaedy that you can use. There is enough solid ground to make a step Forward. Could be a big plot to overthrow earth, or to rescue earth even, who knows? A fight over earth from different realms or empires, friends and foes, but not clear who is what, until the end? Write it down to hold on or to do corrections if still possible. The short arcs in the beginning where a good start to introduce the characters so far.
Good Story builder from the beginning was Tom from twokinds without any science or technologie. One tremendous Story with good science, social and even financial Background knowledge would be Quantum vibe. Very challenging and controversal opinions about some things i am not sure how serious the author is about. Does not fit to my european experience though but good to be out of my bubble sometimes. Take some time for that . He even Shows some of his way of making of the whole Thing at some Point in the Comic. Worth to take some days to consume that. about 1500 pages now…
With Tom you can see that he started his Story 2kinds with less arts skill than you but made big steps Forward by the time.
The maker of Quantum vibe is obviously a professional who worked for Video game companies already.
Why not contact them?
Dont feel intimidated.
No Need to rework your early art. Be proud of your beginnigs and where you come from.
Thank you, for the thoughts, and taking the time to share them.
I’ve always operated from a fairly loose plot. From there, I kind of let the story develop organically, as I draw it. I just occasionally hit a spot that I’m not exactly sure how I want it to proceed.
Honestly, my problem right now is some kind of personal issue, that goes beyond the creative block I’ve been fighting. This has lead to procrastination, leading to rushed pages, and too much filler.
I need to get my head on straight, as they say.
