How to make your own comics strip
Money
I registered on Steemit a few weeks ago. Like everyone I thought "what can I post to make money?" (I bet we all did, no ?). But the truth is, I had absolutely no idea. I guess my life is not that interesting.
Funny
My second though was to have a look at what interests me, so I went to #funny. I was expecting to find some funny home made comics everyday. It's turns out, people mostly post funny pictures of what they find online.
I like it, but I would prefer more 'home made' post.
Let's make my own Comic
I decided to give i try at making my own comics. But there was a tiny problem... I can't draw.
Online solutions
I started with this website to help me created my first strip.
It gives this kind of results
I don't like the style and prefer more simple black and white comics.
It's very simple style and easy to use. Give it a try
Finding ideas
This is the hardest part I guess. Most of my ideas comes from what I read on the internet (fails, wins, jokes) or from movies and TV shows.
Advice
I made 40 comic posts so far. Here is what I learned (but I am not an expert at all).
- Make it simple. If you find a funny idea, but that's too complicated, try to simply it.
- Post everyday if you can. That way you'll keep improving.
- Try. Sometimes that will not be funny but failing is a good way to improve.
Conclusions
I don't have many up-votes or followers, but I will keep on for a very simple reason: I enjoy doing comics a lot.
That's the most important on Steemit: do what you like, not what you expect the others to like.
Thank you for reading.
