AND have this wip until I have time to finish it
Hey weird question but how do you write a comic? Do you write a script for important events? Do you write what each character says? Do you write background info? Please help out a person who's trying to write theirs..
From the simplest perspective, you write exactly as much as you need and not any less. There are no hard rules about this, and tons of people do it tons of different ways. But here's an example of my own, if you need an idea of one method. I'll use my other webcomic, The Dog Star, under the assumption you're working on a traditional comic instead of one like PATFW. However, I use pretty much the same system of documentation for PATFW.
Here's an except from my "notes" document for TDS, which is where I write down things like my basic ideas, any backstories for characters, things I want to expand on, random ideas, etc.
I find it helpful to have a separate notes document from whatever "script" you're working off of, so you can keep them clean and easy to distinguish.
Here's an excerpt from my "script" document of part of the scene described above. For my comic, I write it as if it were a movie script, with dialogue against any necessary notes that will help me remember a specific emotion, choreogrophy, or scene-setting device.
Personally, I did all of my scripting before I started TDS, but I like to work from a really solid base before I begin something. I know plenty of people who only write dialogue, or write it as they go with only outlines of plans. This also doesn't mean that my script is set in stone; since I began TDS, I've added 40 pages worth of new dialogue and adapted almost all of what I had before. It's all up to you.
I've talked about writing tips before on this blog - check out the "advice" tag if you think you might need anything else.
Is Night sun-bleached?
Well I intended the design to have her chest as just her natural fur colour, but I guess you could interpret it as bleached! (I don’t really strive for realism with my designs lol)
properly sun bleached night would be super cool though. love cool fire motif it’s why she has orange eyes and the markings in the first place lmao
