Bug Bite will be back

BUT... I decided to go fully monochrome for the comic, after all this time thinking, this comic to look more as a manga it would benefit a lot on the development of the story and the speed of the releases, I'm totally against quantity over quality but this project as a fully colored comic is too much for me alone, so I'll simply continue by simplifying the process. I hope you understand.

Back on the grind

Thanks a lot for the Criticism!

After reading all of the comments I could gather the mayor issue of the ending of Rock Bottom.
What I lacked was the very development of the twist from the sexual drive of the story to the heavy subjects and the emotions Rio felt over the time with Cinder. It was missing dialogues, inner thoughts and way extra pages.

Someone pointed out stuff like when Raboot / Cinder was breaking like a glass, I could've used more of that to develop the character, to further in the mental state of Cinder and how he was breaking into a sexual toy with no much going on in life anymore. Same way I should've have developed Rio waaay more, specially his trauma and coping mechanisms through Cinder after Loo left him (I should've shown her too), so everything could make more sense in the long run and obviously feel more natural than abrupt.

Obviously the one to blame is me, I actually knew I needed to do more, but after noticing I'm already at page 50, it kinda scared me a little to keep going, I didn't want to drag the comic more but it was more of an inefficiency problem from my part, well I am trying to learn after all, best way to do it is to try it.

About the ending itself, I do still feel strong about it, while most people find it hopeless, my intention was to show through color and background, how there is still a spark of hope, to start a new. Showing Cinder fully covered in sunshine, as a way to show he is free and full of opportunities, despite him not knowing what is there in the World.
For Rio, while drowning in depression (fully covered in dark and blue) it stills show through the window some sparks of light, one small way to redemption despite seeming impossible to reach. But of course, the plot wasn't developed properly so that the ending could actually feel hopeful.

I really don't feel like going back and add more pages but I was brainstorming my way out to do a continuation regardless, could be a nice exercise to see if it's possible to fix the mayor problems. Although this is a BIG maybe.

A note aside, someone actually gave a criticism to myself and it was very interesting because they are right, about my struggle about art vs sexualization. Porn is basically the thing I'm best at but I always felt I could do more, the thing is I feel I can't escape it somehow because it's something I like, I'm known for and it gives me money (thankfully), and this way is shown in my works, Rock Bottom and Bug Bite. Bug Bite was already a very tasking and "too much" of a project for me, tho I'm still not giving up on it, it's hard to see it going on as a comic due my struggle to please myself and the audience. Rock Bottom could've ended like any other revenge doujin, either like a sex slave or they ending up together even tho Cinder would be a broken toy and Rio a broken husk but my struggles decided to try and give them more depth in a failed way.

Criticism

One of the things I would love is to get honest criticism of the writing I'm trying to develop in my stories, by that I mean, speaking with knowledge of the subject someone is talking about, or just understand some of writing in general.

I don't wanna take criticism as the "I do not like this, because is not what I wanted" or just telling me to fuck myself, simply because is not criticism at all.

Why this? well I love to read the comments I get from the stuff I do, some of those comments appear in places like "E-hentai", yes I see you. And a lot of the people there (specially the chinese community) are really against the ending of Rock Bottom, but almost no one gives me a solid argument on why is it bad for them, I wish to know so I could improve.

It's hard to tell, because I wrote characters as characters with personalities, in a way they are who dictates their own actions or how they would react to things. As a writer I gotta let them act for who they are, not make them do my biding when it's uncontrollable. I'm saying this because I'm not sure if I developed my characters properly, or is people themselves not understand what are they reading. Maybe both.

So I'm asking you as a reader, if you got anything negative or positive note to say about the development of my stories, I'm all ears, I want to improve, but if all I get is "I don't like, without much arguments" then I'll just go back and drop content without meaning.

The End.

This was a cool experience, I wasn't expecting this story that started as a "mini" comic would develop this much over time.

I should work on the cover of RB soon!
