Posted on twitter, I temporarily lost my short tfa comic I made back in 2019 (cover was done in 2020).

Past me had put them ‘safe’ and completely separate from the cover board so I turned everything upside down to find them, and I did, phew. Now they’re definitely in a safe place.

I’ve learnt many more sequential skills since this practise comic but it’s still very dear to me. I hope one day I can finish the short sequel.

Small artists you need to understand that when you see an artist who you think has 'made it' tells you not to worry about the numbers and to not fret about getting more likes than reblogs they are not telling you it because they think you are stupid for caring or because they dont need to network to survive they are very likely telling you that because they have witnessed first hand the way the numbers game tears people to shreds in terms of mental health and motivation

Fortnite, are you sure about this? Did you think it through?

Tried to design a character who wears her Health-bar and Mana-bar as stockings <3

I love how Ratchet goes from smacking the back of Bumblebee’s head (because of his loud mouth) to immediately repairing him from the space bridge debris in just a scene later.

Already, in episode one, we learn that Doc Bot cares.

the humble "like" is oft mocked despite what it does for us. "like, three people" is a vastly different statement from "three people". "and i was like 'what the fuck'" is vastly different from "and i said 'what the fuck'". i love you "like" and anyone who says you make people sound stupid will be killed on sight

Fanfic writers, I am begging you- even with dialogue that is clearly attributed, start a new paragraph with each new speaker. The reader shouldn't have to wait until after the dialogue is spoken to understand who is saying it.

Even if it's one word?

Yes.

But it makes things so long!

Great! Your stories will be the king of scrolling, a feast of thumbs, and a gentle stroke across a phone screen.

This convention exists for a reason! Each new paragraph should be a new idea or a new speaker. It's a shortcut for our brains to know that we have jumped across a gap and into the unknown, and you as the writer are about to explain to me where we have jumped to, but at least I know we are somewhere different.

Please practice this! I see so many good fanfic I want to read but except for this huge, glaring issue and it becomes impossible to understand what is happening.

Alphonse is one of the characters of all time I think about him constantly. He’s a 14 year old boy’s soul stuck in a giant scary suit of armor. He’s a gentleman and he’s kind and he has good conflict deescalation skills but his body is a giant scary suit of armor. He befriends every evil henchman he comes across. He loves kittens. He’s a little shit to his older brother sometimes, as all younger brothers are. But his body is a giant scary suit of armor. Arakawa really popped off with Alphonse

god ling accepting greed is really fucking funny actually. literally everybody else in the scene is like "what the fuck" and "why aren't you fighting it" and "it'll kill you" but ling is a particular kind of freak and he's just like ">:) everything is going according to plan"
