Dilemma
11 years ago
I've come to a dilemma on whether to continue the comic My Best Friend or not.
First of all, a little bit of current scenario...
My Best Friend is a comic based on true story about friendship and gay relationship.
The characters are all 18+ with teen look, the look was basically due to my drawing skills when I started it.
It's been nearly 2 years since I started it, and only 6 pages so far.
For each new page I've gotta do my best to keep the old style so pages won't look so different.
I -might- be able to upload pages more often from now on because things at work are doing VERY fine now, and will for months to come.
So the dilemma is:
1. Continue with My Best Friend comic with that teen look on the characters (even though they're not teen)
2. Start a new one, with my current style, a comic about romance and a bit of prejudice.
Please help me to decide.
Thank you.
PS: Page 07 will be out soon, but if the decision is to stop My Best Friend, it's going to be for good.
PS2: Happy new year for everyone! :3

It was the same, but they did it over again with tiny changes that followed the manga more accurately.
(just MY opinion) If it's too hard, I'd say continue with your current style "Hey, they grew up!" lmfao!!!
Oh, and happy new year
I once drew three versions of a comic I named "Kingdom of Dolls" simply because each reinvention of it improve the quality not only of the story but of also the art which is why I drew it over again.
I haven't worked on that project in years but I have kept it in mind if I ever did redraw it and continue the tale of "Karen Holt" and her delightfully autistic lesbian partner "Minalarette Romere Carghtrite" as they try to save their stomachs from being empty and the kingdom from an evil king who stole the throne.
Anyways, I ramble, but my point is that your story will benefit from redrawing everything because you will not only think of new ways to visually reinterpret your story but other aspects such as character development and general conversation elements.
So I vote for you to redraw it. A hope my answer helps you decide.
Work hard and keep it or drop it and start a whole new one.
a lot of artists do that including me, my style is constantly changing
if your not too keen to continue the comic differently then you could just redraw
the already out pages in your current style, personally I hope you do continue with it
I'm very curious as to how it ends :3
there are many Webcomics where you can see the artistic development. :3
I'd also like to see your commissions opened so that I can throw money at you. <3 Happy new years!
Well, at any rate, I hope you have a Happy New Year, Wagner. :)
HAPPY NEW YEAR! *Hugs & Nuzzles*
Why didn't I think of that.
That's a great idea man, thanks a lot
