F3L, the End?

do whatever's best for you

DresdenQ

Well to be honest I can understand your feelings about making long comics, its gota be very tiring. But I for one would love to see at least this one finished. And think George has a good opinion on making it just a series of single pictures. Just don't burn yourself out.

Hey Mark, instead of comics, would series of single pictures work better for you? As in say you did this comic, you'd decide early on, hey, no more than five "frames" and each month only do one of those frames as a large single picture? In the end, whatever helps you. I find these interesting, but not essential (though I did like the Dennis version, sad Cookie didn't get plowed there!)

George

I'm thinking about going back to that.

I prefer seeing just a pic of the winner, and if it burn you that much drop it, a happy Marky draw better, so do what is better for you.

Ace

Like the others I wouldn't really miss it but nice to see some popular/known characters get love. Id rather see more create your adventures with someone like Tifa or Lulu in scenarits

Thanks for speaking up. I want to get an accurate gauge of what people actually pledge for.

Yeah one frame sounds perfect

I mean you can do detailed sketches or just pictures but if F3L is too much for then I think you should but it on pause until you feel like doing it again. Love your work either way man

I'll be honest and probably get a lot of hate for this but I pledged solely for F3L. I found the first one to be very long and can understand how taxing that can be. I thought that the two page stories were a nice balance. If the F3L stops, then I won't pledge again. I'm not saying that as a threat, but it's the honest truth. If there were still slots for monthly commissions, I would pledge monthly for those but there aren't any slots left.

I would opt for a detailed sketch. Methinks that would be the best way to go.

If comics are to much of a time sink, why not do detailed sketches. I'd love more f3l but I'm okay with it being random week by week.

Well that's still good. :) Maybe you could have each page just be an action piece. One solid image. I know other fight artists follow that routine with their stories. One move a page, full of energy/motion.

It looks like I'll still do some catfights. They just can't be comics.

So a tie? XD Well I won't lie. F3L is what got me interested in your Patreon. That being said I've enjoyed your work before like with Tower Girls and your Tiana vs Snow White comic. As much as I'd love to see F3L return and be the random batch of fun it's been, I know asking that of you would be selfish. You do great work and to ask you to burn yourself out is too much to ask for. Maybe someday you'll find a way to bring it back. Maybe focus on light sketches or something. Til then though, do what you want man. You've got a lot of other great projects going. :)

I want to see it completed.

I think you can! Just keep it super derogatory, and keep it messy, with cum, and destruction everywhere. The "mess" might take a little longer, but it's gotta be less than making multiple pictures. It also adds depth to the shot! If you exaggerate the action, like having someone jack off, to show attraction, or mouth rape, to emphasize a point in a low key conversation, I think you can do it in less pics.

I know what you mean because I like that stuff too. I think i can keep that in a one-frame story without needing to go back to making comics.

One of the reasons I really like the fantasy fighting league was the celebrity aspect, yes, but I also REALLY liked the vicious, and dirty talking part. The point of the fight is to have one rape the other, so I really like the hardcore nature of that. If you wanted to do "one-shot" things, that's fine, but PLEASE keep the spirit of violent aggressive sexual action, (with tears, and pain from the victims, and jeers and sinister smiles, from the attackers) Also PLEASE keep the dirty talk! Have characters that aren't afraid to NOT be politically correct, using massively offensive (but clever) phrases, to undercut there rivals, or victims! As long as you do those 2 things, and stay hardcore, i'm cool with you doing "one frame" things. Hint at what took place in the "comic" with the torn up environment, and torn clothes.

somethingpurple67

I had a passion when I started, but the tedium of making comics sucked it right out of me.

Also if you need to take a break and wait till your passions realign, the product might be worth the wait.

To be honest I'd rather you focus more on a few good pieces instead of a quantity. However its up to you. Regardless keep up the good work.

Whatever works for you. Personally I don't care if you drop F3L.

BlightTheEternal

I don't think that'll ever happen. I'm always fighting to find extra time, and I never do. At the end of every month I'm a bit behind. Once I drop something, it stays dropped. Forever.

If he doesn't wanna do it it's not right to ask him to. We support him so he makes content, not to dictate what content he makes.

Kurowscar

Welp i can understand, you yourself said you're not a comics guy, dizzy as even just one off/jokes one panel "comics" could work. I'd say finish this whenever you're bored one day /get inspired.

That black guy

Dude...please...like...I need these. Please keep doing F3L. =*[

SquarePeg3D

Yeah, I want to keep the weekly vote too, which is why I'd need to drop anything comic or story related. Otherwise these will start taking about a month.

I like the concept of the weekly vote, because it's not only fun and sexy, but it's a way to really show your Patrons that they're involved and you value our input. So if F3L is growing stale for you, scrap it or shelve it for your own creative wellbeing, but I personally think keeping the weekly voting is a great idea.

thanks. I one of the Bunker Buster stories I submitted to Literotica (chapter 2 I think) got refused and sent back, and that tends to be when I quit working on a series. It's been so long that I forget what the story was about to, so I have to reread it to remember what was going to happen next. If I get bored rereading it, that is also when I drop the series.

Honestly this looks fucking amazing and I really hope you finish it. I personally really much enjoy the F3L but if you don't enjoy doing it then don't do it man. Do the shit you want to do until you feel like doing comics again.I believe it's safe to say that we, your fans, support you because we enjoy your content, and we want you to make content that you enjoy making. I can't speak for everyone,but I'm not going anywhere. Stuff I'd personally be interested in seeing: I'd LOVE to read more of your writing, I think you're sitting on an amazing gem in the form of the Bunker Buster series, if you continued that and maybe did a few character sheets, that would be pretty cool. The Dizzy stuff is also really neat. Honestly man, just do what you want to do. I fucking love 99% of your content.
