[Comic] Remake of the 20 first pages or no?
Added 2023-06-07 21:44:30 +0000 UTCLatest page of my comic project, which started as a NSFW bonus chapter, has been posted in the late December 2022 (yeah, almost half a year... X.X).
In my previous post, I kinda explained why it stopped (Spoiler alert: Depression). Though, the project is not dead... And you know what? After my 2 objectives for June, I will plan to work on the final pages of my comic for July.
However, since then, some things have changed... My character design (for Keluna mostly) changed 3 times... even the artistic style changed, switching from Lineart + Soft shading, to Lineart + Cell shading, to Lineless Soft shading.
So, I questioned myself. Should I "remake" the 20 first pages to make sure to maintain harmony with my comic style? Or should I just assume the fact I first made this chapter as a test / pilot and just let the first pages as they were?
What's your opinion?
If I do decide to start a remake, I will probably work in this order : pg 21 / remake pg 01 / pg 22 / remake pg 02 / pg 23 / remake pg 03, etc... Note that if some of you are a bit hesitating, wishing to see the next pages before all, I could still make the "remake" pages AFTER the final page of the chapter (page 45) is done. This could be discussed later as well.

Well, I have 7 votes already and none of them are for "yes, do a remake", so... I guess we'll go with the next pages without remake. XP Not that I'll complain about it. ^^

2023-06-09 08:07:35 +0000 UTCThanks for your feedback. Indeed, I think you're right. When I suggested this poll at first, I was thinking it would be great to do one new page, one remake page, etc... But you're right. I better finish at least this chapter before redo the first pages. This is what I think I'll do if I still want to do the remake... And the result of the poll encourages me to process this way too. ^^
