Hot Shit High! Wrap Up
Added 2017-06-04 01:29:57 +0000 UTCAlright, I was gonna post this earlier, but I got a little distracted. Anyways I hope you guys enjoyed Hot Shit High! I had a lot of fun creating it and it was a great project for me to practice sequential art and learn how to write for comics. There were a few things I thought I did well, and some other things I felt I could have done better. I had planned on having Marvin transform and power up after his first sexual encounter, but I never considered ways to foreshadow this, or how to explain it – so I feel as though it came out of nowhere causing the story to take a hard turn. Not that everyone cares of course, it's a sex comic after all! But I like the idea of crafting something with continuity and some semblance of believability... at least in context.
So I'm taking my time writing the second chapter, drawing from my experience and using what I've learned. The next chapter will be bigger and better – and I think it's gonna be a lot of fun too! I don't know yet when I'll start working on it, but I think I'm going to focus on some other things in the mean time (and possibly work on creating a color comic short with Enza if I can meet my next stretch goal on Patreon – more info on that soon). When I pick it up again I'll try to be a little more timely with my release schedule, but I can already see it being a lot of work, so we'll see how it goes.
I just wanted to say thanks to all of you here who have helped support my work, and thanks for seeing me through this project as well (I know it took forever)! Trying my hands at comics was something I've always wanted to do, but was terrified of the commitment, and amount of time involved (especially for somebody who draws as slow and methodically as I do). All of you who have pitched in, no matter how much you've pledged, helped me to create this – it literally wouldn't be here without your support! So I just want to let you know how incredibly grateful I am to you.
Thank-you so much, and I hope you'll look forward to more art and comics from me in the future!
Oh, and feel free to leave comments and feedback below if ya like. I always enjoy hearing from you!

2017-06-04 22:38:56 +0000 UTCYep, there will be more colored works, drawings and illustrations on the way! HSH ch 2 will come.... uh, whenever I feel ready to jump back in I guess.

2017-06-04 22:38:44 +0000 UTCOH! I hope I didn't give you the impression that I don't enjoy what I do, because I certainly do! A part of this is just me rambling about how I want to do even better because of the ridiculously high standards I hold myself to. I'm not content to ever just draw, but to challenge myself to do better every time. I always think critically of my own work. I analyze it, edit it, and think of ways to do better in the future. Not every artist is like this, but many of us are. This process of self-improvement is a part of the enjoyment for me and when I'm able to get better and see the results in my work I get a lot of satisfaction from it. I don't think I'd ever make passive comments about my workload or what I feel obligated to do. I'm not nearly that cynical yet XD But sometimes my own stupid expectations make me feel like I should also be a faster working artist, or that I don't do enough. Unreasonable I know, when I'm also concerned with doing my best. I can understand if my post reads a little bit like somebody feeling at odds with the process but it's just me being openly critical of my work as I've always enjoyed talking with everyone here about it and receiving their opinions as well. Despite how many online artists can be, I am really open to feedback, and have no problem speaking objectively about my own art. I go on too long, but hopefully that helps clear things up. Anyways it's good for me to get positive feedback too and not just the “oh this is so great!” type – but the type that tells me what people really like about my art as it helps me figure out what works. Us artists tend to get this type of feedback more rarely, so I really appreciate you leaving me your thoughts.

2017-06-04 21:44:59 +0000 UTCI began supporting because of HSH and it thrills me to bits to know there will be a continuation. Cheers man.

2017-06-04 21:32:12 +0000 UTCThis was an excellent comic, thanks so much for making it. I hope chapter 2 is as fun and interesting for you as this one was! With the quality of this one, I imagine the next one would be even better! I imagine you're taking a break though. I wanna see a few more colored and singular works before you jump back into a 20 or 30 page chapter again, just for the fact I love seeing the variety of your art. Regardless, keep up the great work!

2017-06-04 15:21:23 +0000 UTCNot to drag you into a potential long discussion in a public forum, but it sounds like you may not have entirely enjoyed doing the comic? I hope this is not the case, because it was amazing and good story only enhances good art (and vice versa) but I also don't want Hot Shit High to be a chore. Something you're grumbling, "Fucking Patreons...better give them more of this so I can buy food this month." If this is not the case, fantastic! Your single page art is gorgeous but the story makes it better. In terms of Marvin's transformation - I like it as is. Marvin may not know what made him transform (it's likely sex but is it all sex? Is it the sex-place? Sex under stress? Lots of options) and sometimes explaining too much or too early hurts a story. Now this is rambling so short version - you're work is excellent and I hope you love doing it.
