Oh my gosh. I just found this website that walks you though creating a believable society. It breaks each facet down into individual questions and makes it so simple! It seems really helpful for worldbuilding!
Beware!
here are some notes about the things I like to keep in mind when drawing smiles! :D
alright, super quick primer on torrenting:
depending on your country, you may need a vpn to access torrenting sites and avoid getting fined. a vpn can also allow you to stream on legal sites that are location-restricted. proton vpn is a strong free alternative for minor piracy, but this isn't a major deal in my region, so do your own research if fines are a concern.
you want a strong ad blocker before going into any piracy websites. don't use adblock. i recommend ublock origin.
you also want to have at least the system antivirus on. on top of my antivirus, i also use malwarebytes.
next, you need a torrent client to manage your downloads. don't use bittorrent. i recommend qbittorrent.
last, but not least, you need a reliable source for your torrents. rarbggo dot org (edit: rarbg shut down in 2023) and 1337x dot to are my go-to websites at the time being. downloading multimedia files is safe as long as you are going to a solid website like these ones, but you may want to do some extra reading before you try to pirate software.
for subtitles, i primarily use opensubtitles dot org.
bonus tip: vlc media player includes an integrated subtitle search engine. under the view menu, click vlsubs to find subtitles by name, episode and language.
Any tips for panel layout for pacing? I feel like yours really lends itself to the stories u tell.
thank u. its random comic tips which may or may not answer your question time, cookie edition
