Hi it’s Royal. If you didn’t know already I accidentally deleted my tumblr trying to delete a different account. If you followed it I just wanna give you a heads up. The username should still be the same (the-royal-artist) thanks for bearing with me.
hi royal ! im such a big fan of your work <3
i absolutely fell in love with your comic Gender Roles !
i'm so ready to give you all my money to support you
:'D
Nah, I been seeing comics come out now with this kind of very spacey spacing. It was cool when Mike Mignola did it, like a lot of blacks and focusing on shadows, but now it's like artists don't like drawing and are just looking to kill image space with filler. Have you noticed this at all?
All artists have their own style, so it’s just a matter of if they like that amount of space or not ^^ having a lot of space between images isn’t uncommon or new. You can find that formatting in lots of comics outside of Tapas as well. I don’t find it that much of an issue to worry about so I haven’t noticed, sorry ^^*
Gender Roles was lazy, poorly written and a complete bitch/whine fest. Most of the comic was just extended color-filled splash pages posing bland questions. The problems the character faces in the first part aren't identified specifically. She mentions she is bi, leaves a date with a man and mentions about always going for jerks. What if she (as her sexuality entailed) went on a date with a girl? Or were the girls jerks too? It all seems so relative and a desperate grasp at a way for the main character to come off all "boo-hoo, woe was me." at first encounter. Literally had me sighing the whole way through.
sorry you didn’t enjoy it ^^* It’s my first comic so don’t expect perfection. If your intention was to hurt my feelings all you really did was make me laugh cause I wasn’t expecting such a long hate comment lol. I would suggest to find something you do enjoy cause it would make you happier.
I'm just saying from an outside standpoint, what it appeared to be. I just stuck around to see if it grew on me since I don't like to just discredit something right out the gate. But, meh. Just ain't for me.
