A Question and Little Else

Journal Entry: Sat Oct 6, 2007, 4:01 PM
  • Mood: Neutral
  • Listening to: FF7mix:Airships make me Happy by Star Salzman
  • Watching: Mythbusters
  • Playing: The waiting game... so boring...
Wandering off again, are we, Elizabeth? ...yup. I've been on a less-than-magical journey -almost- completely free of things like focus, capacity for attention, and presentable artwork. But I can't provide a log of where all I've been due to insufficient memory... take that however you like.

Been thinking long and hard about my comics (Lately, I've not been feeling up to completing much art, so I've not actually DONE much but think about it), and reached a point where I need to decide on the general direction once and for all before I really try to start on it after making up many scenarios to use in some way or another.

Should I:
A: Make it a normally toonish thing even though I don't think I'm very funny and that I probably wouldn't be able to continue with when I feel serious or unhappy,
B: Make it a normally serious thing, even though my capacity for art may not be high enough to match the plot and I might feel too silly to further it sometimes.
C: Fuse the two together, making it swing from dramatic to silly and back, thus either infuriating fans (if any) of one side or the other or possibly having something for everyone.
D: Make two separate comics of types A and B which have mostly the same characters but somewhat different settings,
plot styles, titles, and possibly age ratings (so the kids don't see violence and get nightmares or try to mimic something and hurt themselves).
or E: Give up on my characters, spiral into depression and draw nothing but sad clowns and naked people crying... or sad naked clowns crying.

I may pick one myself even if the votes are highest on one or the other... I mean, I can't deny the fact that every so often I feel like drawing something nonsensical, or the complete opposite of that. I just want to know what you guys think, if you'd be so kind as to share a piece of your mind with me.

And no, the cast will be wider than just the characters I have displayed that you know about, some I've had for years that I've never shown other people. (Some such as Harriet, will recieve a redesign and reassignment... most of you don't know who I'm talking about, though :XD: )

Anyway, repent, the end is near, etc. and Go see :iconrainbwice: about commissions if you want charas drawn. I'm gonna wander off now... I'll attend to my remaining messages later when I feel more like partaking of my computer screen's nice warm radiation.

-----STATUS--------------------------------------------------
Requests: No, I'm not taking any requests.
Trades: No, not accepting art trades at this time.
Commissions: Not doing those now, either.
Working on: Plotlines, new icon (not getting a good start on that... I'm still kindof lagging artwise)

Hi Elizabeth.
I remember you from the neon castle. I'm the one who drew the donkey kong icon and the donkey kong head with a tie hanging from it...called plastic smile. It's nice to have finally found you.
