I am typically such a starter, but rarely follow through and finish the plethora of things I begin. Is anyone else like that? I almost just love the possibility instead of the final outcome. I’m trying to change that this year, so id like to try finish a mini comic/manga vibe with an Albanian centric character/storyline. I’m still in my character design phase and I realise anime/manga style is more difficult to learn than I thought. So learning that style is also a goal (and being a much better artist) any tips?

I do this a bunch too! Start comic ideas and never follow through, but from what i’ve seen reading other comics: you really improve as you work on it. So i’d jump in sooner rather than later! Also simplifying, you’re gonna be drawing these characters over and over again, make sure that’s as easy as a process for you as possible. I wish you luck!!! She looks so cool!

daphnedidit it’s such a bad habit!! Why do we do that!! And I definitely hear that 😭 it’s hard bc you want it to be perfect but you’re so right! I will definitely try but when you look at old Albanian traditional dress it’s so complicated!! I’m definitely going to keep brain storming

tell me why I stop liking the things I’m making halfway through and then give up…..the end result could be worth it you never know! at least you made something that didn’t previously exist 🙏

Just did this last night and honestly this happens every time. I have a creative project I want to do . . . Maybe get it started . . . . But then let so much time go by before I work on it again or even complete it (if it's not a long term thing). You deserve to see your efforts accumulate! Sometimes I feel a little bad doing something purely for myself but ykw, even when I'm not doing it I'm not really doing anything else worthwhile. So just . . . Do it. There is no try.

As someone who often falls into burnout and creative slumps with my art and animation, I find that taking a little step out of your comfort zone and trying something different really helps! It can be a different medium, a different style, etc. as long as you’re doing something creative. Oftentimes what gets me out of my slumps is switching from digital to traditional art, and also doing a bit of writing! I always return reinvigorated and full of ideas.

I’m not sure about the purpose of this site but anywho. Spent Sunday doodling, I’m off to see my sister today. She got hit by a car and I think being bed bound is starting to get to her. I’m just happy she’s alive because I would have followed her in death to be honest. I just hope she’s mentally doing well.
