So you want to make a webcomic? Good for you webcomics are a fun way to draw, express yourself creatively and bring life to a world that only exists in your imagination but how does one get started and that’s advice number 1 get started practice drawing and developing your art style whatever it is start with something small.
But what should it be about well that’s the thing. You can do a webcomic about most subject matter. Most people think comic books are for Science fiction and Superheroes or fantasy not true there is nothing you can’t make into a webcomic for instance you can start small with joke comics. We’ve all seen them. The good thing about these comics is that they are the perfect place to start. I only wish I started that way. Joke comics are usually quick to the point and the drawings are not so complicated usually two characters a simple background a speech bubble or two with the joke. You could do a lot of these as a way of building an audience and as you do that you can try doing something a little more harder to do and keep building up from there.
So lets say you have started on an idea the webcomic is done easy ready to go can easily keep up the updates but where do you post it. There are plenty of webcomic sharing sites you can place your comics such as Webtoon and Tapas. You can also try and list your comics on topwebcomics. Get a deviant art account post on your different social media but most importantly you want to have your very own website to post your webcomic. Posting your content on a website that belongs to you gives you more control of the webcomic including any money the website makes from ad revenue and or merchandise. I shall return for entry 2 I hope you readers got something out of this post that will help you along your way
