A Request for Information: Comics
13 years ago
First, an update: I'll be starting commissions as soon as I finish the 1st contest winner's award, I'm almost done with it but I want to get it finished before taking on more work.
Second, a Request:
I want to draw a longer comic, something like 15-20 pages. It would be transformation themed and contain sex, probably. I'd like to sell this comic on a website somewhere. If anyone has knowledge/experience of how to go about selling comics like this, I'd love to talk to you (reply to this or send me a note).
Specific questions:
- What are some good sites to look at for hosting/handling transactions? The Process? TGcomics? Are there others? What is involved in getting work on/involved in such a site?
- What sorts of stories sell? What should I avoid? What do people want from a comic like this? What would make it satisfying for people who bought it?
- Is there a good example of someone who has done this and been successful? (I don't really buy this sort of stuff so I'm kind of clueless)
Also, if you're a writer and want to work on this sort of project I might want to hear from you, especially if you have a script already written or have experience doing this sort of thing.
I hope this makes sense.
TL/DR: How would an aspiring pornographer sell comics to people?
Thanks.

Avoid starting a story line or plot line, and never finishing it, or awnsering all its questions. This is a must!
Keep away from generic character types ( The Jock, The Cheerleader, The Emo, The Geek, ect. ) but make a character audiences can relate to, and can be likeable.
If you are looking to peddle a porn comic, MAKE it a porn comic! Don't cheap out, and never get to the good stuff! As well, do not allow the story to get in the way of le' porn!
Want more advice? Check out the Process Productions forums. I'm sure they can help.
I'll take my payment for assisting as a free full version of the comic when its done. And maybe a small cameo. XD
Let the story get in the way of the porn. Unwrapping a package is way sexier than no package at all.
Otherwise the process productions is a good place.
Im currently working on several stories that would be more amazing illustated, if you want Ill send them your way once I'm finished.
Actually, come to think of it, I tell a lie - I might know at least something. There is always goneallwild (http://www.goneallwild.com/), which is a website that is focused around a series of short tf-porn comics, with the goal of making money from them. The site is (I believe) all one person's doing, and part of a small stable of sites they seem to run. Setting up your own site might not be a road you want to go down, but the person responsible might be able to give you some advice? Probably best to check them out here at http://www.mamabliss.com/blog/, which appears to be their home site.
Anyway, hope some of that helps! I figure helping out an aspiring TF pornographer is easily its own reward.
