The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

Don't know about you but my drawing efforts need a serious reboot and I was thinking of maybe trying a weekly comic to get some consistency and routine down.

Anyone else already doing a weekly comic?

Anyone else up for a challenge of doing one?

Like a mini-Iron Man challenge to help motivate and keep people on track?

Speaking of Track, my record is spotty at best, which is why I'd like to consider this so that I can fill in those holes.

I also figured by doing a weekly comic, it'd give me a chance to contributy to the writers workshop with my script writing. Two birds w/ one stone!

So, anyone wanting to try this with me?

Well figured it was a longshot, so I'll shoot for 13 strips/pages within 90 days.

I can't draw.

But you can write, right? 13 pages?

13 pages a week?

So essentially its one page a week. I think I can do that.

Any ideas what you have in mind? I guess PM me or something.

Oh, this isn't about a shared concept. It's just a shared effort. Meaning every artist/writer works on what they're already got in mind. So for example if you wanted to focus on your character Tableau, then you'd do that. If you wanted to do something fresh from scratch, you'd do that.

It's really about motivating ourselves to get a routine down.

Hmm, I see. Ight, I'm down, regardless.

Here's a concept I'm thinking about right now:

I'll do it.

Sweet. Rules of the game?

Well not many, just draw/write 1 page or 1 strip. Mininmum of 2 panels, and preferrably inked or in some finished medium.

The only deadline is that it's done by April 1rst. I think that's 90 days.

Otherwise, you work at your own pace but when you think a strip/page is at it's finishing point post it, so we can all drool!
