Good luck with your comic launch! I hope that your webcomic explodes (in the best possible way), but if it doesn't happen to find an enthusiastic audience on Webtoon, I would strongly encourage you to shop the project to agents or publishers. You have such a beautiful style that would lend itself so easily to a print run, I do not doubt for a second that someone would gladly snap you up!
@@fairyfarms Hii! Yes, oh my gosh of course! ₊·*◟(˶╹̆ꇴ╹̆˵)◜‧*・ I actually already have a bunch of my illustrations up on Pinterest here: www.pinterest.ca/riniapple/
Your art style really sparks for me, this days, especially in webtoons, it seems that everyone needs to fit into a certain style to get attention (if that is your art style I think it's completely fine it is really good quality art style ) but I feel the catalog really lacks on diversity, and your watercolor-esque ghibli-esque style really does bring me to past days and does makes me feel some nostalgia that really drives me in. I hope you succeed in your launch and I will be tuning in for sure, I really relate to the stories you are making and I hope you can finally find your pace and space with art I wish you the best 💖
Hii agiori!! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ Thank you so much for your comment! I think you’re totally right about there being a lack of diversity in art styles on Webtoon. Although, I get it. It’s kind of like how Japanese manga all have a certain look to them or how American comics (namely Marvel & DC) tend to stick to a certain style. In a similar way, Webtoons have come to have a certain style as well. Regardless!! Even though my comic may not appeal to many people, I am going to make it true to me - both in art style and in story. I’m so glad my art resonates with you (;▽;) Thank you so much again for your encouragement and support ❤ Hope you have a lovely rest of your day (●´ω`●)
Hii meraihkan!! Thank you for your encouragement (*´∀`*) Wishing you all the best on your artistic journey!! I hope you’re able to enjoy the journey as much as possible 💕
Hello Riniapple! I discovered you like 2h ago and wish you all the best! I'm going to publish my first book this August thanks to CZcams and Patreon community so everything is possible. You will find your people for sure! Good luck and enjoy the journey
Hi kriskris!! (⋈◍>◡<◍)。✧♡ Thank you so much for stopping by and for all of your well-wishes! Huge congratulations to you for your achievement!! ☆*・゜゚・(^O^)/・゜゚・*☆ I really hope your print run is a success. I'm hoping I'll be able to get to where you are one day (> //
it's nice to see you smiling and happy. you deserve this newfound youtube success after how hard you worked for years. your art style is so cute and comfy and it easily translates into your youtube videos. i love love love it! i've been on an 'art hiatus' for a while now and you are inspiring me to find my footing in the art world again.
hehehehe ヾ(≧∪≦*)ノ〃 Thank you sistur!! Okay! Noted. Will make a character sheet video sometime in the future. I'm also curious what my thinking/process is 🤔 Haven't really thought about it before (*꒪ヮ꒪*)
I just discovered your channel and you are such an inspiration! As a fellow webtoons canvas comic creator I've always struggled to make my own videos despite me wanting to so bad (camera shy I guess!) Thank you for putting yourself out there and being the example people like me need! Also, in regards to working full time and determining a posting schedule, I highly recommend you do bi-weekly as opposed to once a week. You'll go through your buffer so quick and honestly I've found that webtoons readers prefer a more robust episode instead of small bite sized episodes (especially for the genre you're making your comic in!) I'm so excited to read your comic, I too am a full time accountant looking to be more artistic 😂
I love the premise of your comic! Slice of lifes, especially those that tackle more mature/grown-up themes, may not be the hottest genre, but I think it'll definitely reach a niche and dedicated audience. Really looking forward to reading your story when it launches!
Hii cloe!! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ Thank you so much for watching and for leaving a comment!! I’m so happy you like the premise and are interested in this type of genre ヽ(;▽;)ノ It certainly doesn’t seem like the most popular type of genre, but I’m certain there are more lovely people like you out there who enjoy this niche 💕 Thank you so much again for your support!
i've been watching your sister's channel for a couple months now, and clicked on this video thinking y'all kind of look alike. then i see in the video description that you guys are sisters! what a talented family
Hehe ヽ(;▽;)ノ❤ Thank you so much for watching both of our videos!! I love how CZcams somehow brought both of us to you ╰(*´︶`*)╯ Me and my sister must be more similar than I think ʕʘ‿ʘʔ
Im addicted to your artstyle! :0 Theres something about the watercolors and the soft pencils that give it some nostalgic bittersweet feeling if that make sense lol. Best of luck with your webtoon launch I hope it all goes well for you!
You inspire me so much. I love drawing and I am also into manga/comics/anime. Atm I am working a non-art related job but in the back of my mind i always wish to be free from job and draw what i want. Hopefully once I am a little more financially stable and free from the job that i don’t enjoy, i can be like you and draw from home. ❤ I wish you the best on your journey and may many readers read your comics so one day you can earn more income drawing and following your passion ❤😊
Hii kimsaochu! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ Thank you so much for your comment! I’m so glad I inspire you to create your own beautiful works 💕 I apologize if I miscommunicated in any way, but I am actually working a full time job as well! I only work on my comics in my free time outside of work! Hopefully that can help to inspire you more to get started on your project ^_^ Wishing you all the best!
I really appreciate you being so vulnerable and also sharing your thought processes! I feel really encouraged in hearing that the idea started small and grew from there, most of my story ideas are just like that and I can get afraid of expanding them and "ruining" them by sharing tpo much in my videos 😅 so I am going to work kn that! I really look forward to your videos and reading your comic! A video on character sheets would be absolutely lovely! 😊🩷 I am also subbed to your sister, too cool!
You have a lovely and cute art style, I'm looking forward to following your comic journey. Your struggles are very relatable, but I hope you continue to chase your passions and find fulfilment 🙂
Hii aeryma! ♪( ´▽`) thank you so much for your comment and your support!! I’m glad I was able to touch you in some way 🥹💕 And yes! I will continue to keep chasing my dreams! Thank you so much again (*≧∀≦*)
This is so exciting!! I quit making my webcomic of four years a few weeks ago, and I’ve been feeling listless since. I want to start a new one with the lessons I’ve learned but my idea is so small and it’s just a work in progress. I look forward to reading your webcomic when it is published- I can relate to Hina in a lot of ways. I work in a financial institution and just have been wanting more lately. I’m looking forward to this journey and I wish you the best of luck!
I’m so glad I found your channel ❤ you are such an inspiration in so many ways and you definitely have the cozy vibe set up perfectly! I love drawing and relaxing with you in the background…. I find your voice and music choices are very calming 🥰
Love your videos and drawings. Thank you for being so open about your journey! I love how your procreate illustrations still look so hand drawn. Could you make a video about your process? Maybe combined with the character sheet video? 🙏💜
Hii (^O^)❤ Thank you so much for watching and for your comment. Yes! I can absolutely make a video about my drawing process (specifically on how I make it my digital watercolor illustrations look so analog) in Procreate!! It’s actually a process I’ve worked many years on developing (I’m not too sure if you’ve seen my video about “Digital Watercolors” from *6 years* ago 😱) and I’d love to share all my new learnings on CZcams soon!! Thank you so much for the suggestion ❤ I really appreciate it ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
Hii supriya!! o(^▽^)o Thank you so much for your comment!! And yes, absolutely! I am actually writing up a list of fun and unique tips to share about my character design / character sheet making process! I hope you’ll enjoy it (>v
Hello! I love this long and cozy style of videos that you're making. It really allows me to settle in this sweet and artsy atmosphere, which is conforting 😊 All good luck with your Webtoon, I hope you'll enjoy the process 🍀
Thank you for your comment haliiiaa!! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ I’m really glad you enjoy my video format!! I’m still trying to get the hang of things, so that’s really nice to hear. Thank you so much for your encouragement ❤
Hii nuni!! OMG XD Good eye!! Yes! That's Genki 1 & 2! I used them back when I was in uni. I actually started revisiting them together with my little sister to brush up on our Japanese skills. Good luck with your studies! \(^▽^)/
RINI I JUST READ YOUR COMIC (follow your art)!! Its so so so nice and has so much potential, I deeply wish for you to become one of the original creators, I love your art, I love your cozy story telling. I literally just stumbled upon your page 30 minutes ago and I already feel connected with your art, I hope you can make more people feel like this! :))
Hii cha! (*´∇`*) Thank you so much for checking out Follow Your Art! I’m so so glad you enjoyed it and I am so glad my art resonates with you! >~< I apologize for my old comic cutting off the way it did (x_x;;) This time around, I am dead set on seeing this project through. So hopefully I won’t be leaving anyone else hanging (;▽;) Thank you so much again for your support and encouragement!
Hiii ashmitanandy!! (*^ω^*) Absolutely! It’s decided then - I will work on a character sheet video next thing! I’ve got some fun and unique tips I’d really love to share with all of you character creators ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ I think you’ll all really enjoy them
Hii minty!! ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ I'm so glad you're interested in my story!! And oh my gosh, if it makes you cry... I'll have done my job right! Muahahaha ヾ(@† ▽ †@)ノ I really hope this story touches peoples' hearts and resonates with those who've gone through similar experiences ( ; v ; ) Thank you so much again♥
Congrats on your relaunch! Hoping for the best for your webcomic and that it continues to bring you joy and will bring success to yah! Really enjoyed your video--Had it in the BG while I was working on my own art as well! Looking forward to your continued journey!!
Thank you so much for watching and for your encouragement ally!! (^O^☆♪ I love that you had this playing in the bg while you were working on your own art!! ❤
I came across your channel a few days ago, and I am so beyond thrilled that I found your videos! The setup is super cozy, and your art is so freaking cute!! Hope you continue sharing your talent with us. Have a great day! 💕
Can you do a desk tour (or a room tour) some day? I love seeing other people’s art tools. Do you have recommnedations on “how to draw”books? And I am almost certain my favorite color is same as yours. I have an Ipad case almost identical to yours.
Hii chunk ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ Thank you for your comment!! Yes! I can definitely do a room tour one day (I honestly didn’t think anyone would be interested ^0^;;) Hmmm… book recommendations… good question. I honestly find most of my “how to draw” resources online! But if I were to recommend any book, it’d have to be one about making comics! “Making Comics: Storytelling Secrets of Comics, Manga and Graphic Novels” by Scott McCloud ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ It’s been immensely helpful in helping me figure out how to effectively tell stories through comics! It even goes over things like how draw literally allllll of the facial expressions to communicate emotion. I’d highly recommend it 💕
Hii book rant!! ヾ(●⌒∇⌒●)ノ Thank you so much for your support! I really appreciate the sub. I'm so glad you enjoyed watching my process and listening to my rambles (^∇^;;) hahaha!
@@Riniapple is this published at all yet? If not, will it be on the webtoon app when you do? I actually like the synopsis it sounds like an interesting drama story. I love stories about loners and those feeling left out, I relate to that
@@TheBookRant Good question! No it’s not posted yet, but I will be posting it on Webtoon! I’m still working on building up a bit of a backlog of pages before I post. I’m hoping to finish around 15 pages before I start posting. Thank you so much for your interest and support! I hope you continue to look forward to its soon release! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
Hey I’ve just discovered your channel and I’m hooked ❤ you have such a calming vibe about you an I’m very inspired to start comic making now!! I’m also an artist and writer so I’m thinking of combining the two.. maybe in the future 🤩
Hii amanada!! Thank you for leaving a comment ☆ヾ(*´▽`)ノ Yes, of course! My plan is to make more videos, so I'll do my best to keep going with that ୧| ” •̀ ل͜ •́ ” |୨ I'd be more than happy to share my drawing process! I'll definitely be making videos with that in the future!
The points you made about how this project drawing is interesting :o I was similar in that I wanted to be an animator and be an established mangaka. As I was getting older I realized it wasn't as easy as I thought and the dream died down, however what has carried me is that I became a follower of Christ. So whatever work I do I don't mind on what it is because I'm pray to bring glory to Him in whatever way it is which has brought a lot of purpose since the Lord has a will and timing for all of us. I'm still gonna make a story obviously but I'm not as panicked about it I guess haha🤎 God bless you and your comic😼 love the art, gotta be my favorite new artstyle
@@Riniapple if your want to publish your stuff. Like I do go to Kablam comics. They make comics and graphic novels. I already did some mini posters. BTW, I make drawing shorts on channel.
I think I would kind of like it better if the working with music in the background videos and journal style discussions were broken up into separate videos. They are both good, but I sometimes Im more in the mood for one than the other.
Hii diegob!! Thank you for taking the time to listen! Yes!! Absolutely I can turn the audio up a bit in future voice overs ヽ(;▽;)ノ I got the same feedback in a previous comment, so I will definitely keep that in mind when editing future videos ❤ thank you!!
Hii anthony!! ヽ(;▽;)ノ I love how you put it. Perhaps it is a piece of my soul manifesting on my canvas ❤And yess!!! I am a big Naruto fan! 🍥 Come to think of it, yeah! The artwork for that ending song does share some similarities to mine 💕
Hi! I'm new here ヾ(≧▽≦*)o Your previous video got recommended to me. It's so nice to see that you're working on your dreams at a more comfortable pace now. Good luck on your art journey, can't wait to read your webcomic! (^¬^)
Lovely vlog! Please ramble all you want! 😂 good luck with your comic! Just one note, there’s a noticeable difference in volume between your talking bits and your music ones, I have to raise it to hear you properly and then lower it cause then the music is a bit too loud 😅
Hii mandarina!! ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ Ahahaha! I'm glad you don't mind all my rambling. Thank you so much for your encouragement and support ( ; v ; ) And omg!! Ahhhh, I realized my talky bits were *significantly* quieter than the music I was using to edit the videos so I tried adjusting the levels a bit. I guess I didn't adjust them far enough(>ε<;;) Noted for next time!! Thank you so much for letting me know 💕
I've been trying to start a webtoon for a while now but I've been having motivation issues with the amount of work needed to make one. I wanted to ask how you find your motivation to keep going and how to enjoy the process of making it
Hi ovl! Thank you so much for watching and for leaving a comment!! Hmmm, very good question 🤔 Honestly, I’ve been struggling a lot with motivation to get myself to sit down and work on my comic as well. It’s a *big* job to do and just thinking about all the work that has to go into it can feel overwhelming at times. I definitely haven't found the answer yet, but in terms of what I am doing right now to stay motivated, I am actually trying to think of things and approach things in a different way - Deep down, I know the motivation is there. That’s why I feel such a need to make this comic in the first place. Instead, I need to lower the amount of energy it takes to conquer the initial inertia I face when deciding whether to sit down and work on my comic and eventually gain momentum. To do this, I am working on building up a habit of working on my comic during the same time every day. Just a few minutes to start, and then gradually build up. If you haven’t already, I’d highly recommend you read “Atomic Habits”. Hopefully this helps a bit >_< Good luck!! And keep going ❤
Hii fallingsky!! ╰(*´︶`*)╯ Thank you so much for your comment. I'm so happy you think my art is cute O(≧∇≦)O To answer your question, I use a standard American manga page size of 5 x 7.5 inches + a 0.125-inch bleed at 350 dpi. So that works out to a canvas size of 5.26 x 7.76 inches (it gets rounded) at 350 dpi on Procreate! I hope that answers your question!
im so happy i found your channel you're so adorable! your art style is absolutely beautiful i wish you all the best on this journey (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) ♡ 18:00 also yes there has been times when i flip the drawing then i see all my mistakes LOL im like oh time to fix all of this (╥﹏╥) i hope you can continue to create long videos like this its truly amazing 𖹭
Hi, I just wanted to say thank you for sharing a little bit about your story and daily life. I am an illustrator too, so your videos are very inspiring and I can relate to them a lot. (I also like going to bed early and getting up before everyone else!) Hope you‘re having a wonderful day and I wish you all the best! ₍ᐢ•ﻌ•ᐢ₎*:・゚
I don’t even normally like slice of life but your comic sounds really cool 🙂 I’d like to read it once you’re posting it on WebToon. Regarding a posting schedule, it’s probably useful to time how long it takes you to finish an episode so you can get a useful time range. (While working full time, 🫨 it may even be most realistic to commit to monthly updates) Your office is so soothing, it really makes me want to get my workspace in order because that would be a useful aspect to getting a lot of work done. (I don’t even have a proper writing desk right now. 😅🤣😁). Picking a designated color palette for your comic is a great idea, now that you mention it 🤔 I should do that for my comic too! I think it’ll really help set the mood too. I don’t mind your humming 🙂 I think it goes nicely with the music 🥰 And Yomi is so cute! 🥺😭🐶💝💕💕
Hii feathers!! ヾ(〃^∇^)ノ♪ Ahh!! That makes me so happy that you'd be willing to try reading a different genre! I really really hope my comic doesn't disappoint (> . < ) And great tip about the posting schedule!! I haven't really been able to figure out how long it takes me to illustrate pages since I've been so inconsistent with working on them x_x;; My next goal is to build a routine (a habit) of working on my comic at certain times of the day / certain days of the week and see how many pages I'm producing once I really get into the swing of things. I suspect (based on my previous pace from my last comic) that I will probably be able to comfortably make 2-3 pages a week. But we'll see! Ahaha, and thank you for your compliment about my office and my silly humming (*>ω
Good luck with your comic launch! I hope that your webcomic explodes (in the best possible way), but if it doesn't happen to find an enthusiastic audience on Webtoon, I would strongly encourage you to shop the project to agents or publishers. You have such a beautiful style that would lend itself so easily to a print run, I do not doubt for a second that someone would gladly snap you up!

I really love this kind of video, hope you for the best!
Ahh! Thank you so much kronoverse!! ヽ(;▽;)ノ💕 I’m so glad you enjoyed my video (despite it being quite long and rambley >.
Keep going, Riniapple! I’m excited to follow you along on your journey as an incredible illustrator :)
Hii mary!! Thank you so much for following along! \(>w
@@Riniapple I completely agree and really think showing up for yourself is one of the best ways to show ourselves love!
Your comic idea sounds wonderful! itll probably hit really close to home for me but thats ok I love art that makes me cry LOL
Hii minty!! ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ I'm so glad you're interested in my story!! And oh my gosh, if it makes you cry... I'll have done my job right! Muahahaha ヾ(@† ▽ †@)ノ I really hope this story touches peoples' hearts and resonates with those who've gone through similar experiences ( ; v ; ) Thank you so much again♥
Congrats on your relaunch!
Hoping for the best for your webcomic and that it continues to bring you joy and will bring success to yah!
Really enjoyed your video--Had it in the BG while I was working on my own art as well!
Looking forward to your continued journey!!
Thank you so much for watching and for your encouragement ally!! (^O^☆♪ I love that you had this playing in the bg while you were working on your own art!! ❤
I came across your channel a few days ago, and I am so beyond thrilled that I found your videos! The setup is super cozy, and your art is so freaking cute!! Hope you continue sharing your talent with us. Have a great day! 💕
I just found your channel today. I like the art style of this upcoming comic! Looking forward to it 😊❤
Hii thatchsan!! Thank you for watching my video and taking the time to leave a comment 💕╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ I hope you’ll enjoy all the art and comics to come!
Can you do a desk tour (or a room tour) some day?
I love seeing other people’s art tools.
Do you have recommnedations on “how to draw”books?
And I am almost certain my favorite color is same as yours.
I have an Ipad case almost identical to yours.
Hii chunk ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡ Thank you for your comment!! Yes! I can definitely do a room tour one day (I honestly didn’t think anyone would be interested ^0^;;)
Hmmm… book recommendations… good question. I honestly find most of my “how to draw” resources online! But if I were to recommend any book, it’d have to be one about making comics! “Making Comics: Storytelling Secrets of Comics, Manga and Graphic Novels” by Scott McCloud ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ It’s been immensely helpful in helping me figure out how to effectively tell stories through comics! It even goes over things like how draw literally allllll of the facial expressions to communicate emotion. I’d highly recommend it 💕
What a nice video. I love seeing creators on their process, talking about their average days. You just got a subscriber
Hii book rant!! ヾ(●⌒∇⌒●)ノ Thank you so much for your support! I really appreciate the sub. I'm so glad you enjoyed watching my process and listening to my rambles (^∇^;;) hahaha!
@@Riniapple is this published at all yet? If not, will it be on the webtoon app when you do? I actually like the synopsis it sounds like an interesting drama story. I love stories about loners and those feeling left out, I relate to that
@@TheBookRant Good question! No it’s not posted yet, but I will be posting it on Webtoon! I’m still working on building up a bit of a backlog of pages before I post. I’m hoping to finish around 15 pages before I start posting.
Thank you so much for your interest and support! I hope you continue to look forward to its soon release! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
watching oh no nina while drawing your webtoon !! me too girl!
Glad to see a second video, I've been checking in to make sure there was a follow up. Looking forward to seeing where this goes... :)
Hey I’ve just discovered your channel and I’m hooked ❤ you have such a calming vibe about you an I’m very inspired to start comic making now!! I’m also an artist and writer so I’m thinking of combining the two.. maybe in the future 🤩
Please make more videos, I'd love to see you drawing process.
Hii amanada!! Thank you for leaving a comment ☆ヾ(*´▽`)ノ Yes, of course! My plan is to make more videos, so I'll do my best to keep going with that ୧| ” •̀ ل͜ •́ ” |୨ I'd be more than happy to share my drawing process! I'll definitely be making videos with that in the future!
The points you made about how this project drawing is interesting :o I was similar in that I wanted to be an animator and be an established mangaka. As I was getting older I realized it wasn't as easy as I thought and the dream died down, however what has carried me is that I became a follower of Christ. So whatever work I do I don't mind on what it is because I'm pray to bring glory to Him in whatever way it is which has brought a lot of purpose since the Lord has a will and timing for all of us. I'm still gonna make a story obviously but I'm not as panicked about it I guess haha🤎 God bless you and your comic😼 love the art, gotta be my favorite new artstyle
I love your art, the comic is going to look amazing❤
Thank you erika!! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡
THE ART LOOKS SO YUMMY OMLLLLLL LOOKING FORWARD TO IT GOOD LUCK!!!!!
Hii strawberrika!! 🍓\(*^▽^*)/ THANK YOUUU!! I really appreciate your comment and your support (> v
Your artstyle is soo CUTE! 💕
Your art is gorgeous! I'm rooting for you!
I haven’t continue with my webtoon so maybe i can just read yours to get inspiration and motivtion to continue the story😅
ty 🙌
Goodluck!
I just noticed your channel. I like your art. I do my own stuff as well and started to promote my comics.
Hi AJT! Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤ I'm so glad you like my art ( > v
@@Riniapple if your want to publish your stuff. Like I do go to Kablam comics. They make comics and graphic novels. I already did some mini posters. BTW, I make drawing shorts on channel.
@@Riniapple let me know whenever you start selling. I'll but it!
In the indie world you have to keep at it and keep drawing. You have to make it happen.
I think I would kind of like it better if the working with music in the background videos and journal style discussions were broken up into separate videos. They are both good, but I sometimes Im more in the mood for one than the other.
Oo!! Thank you much for your feedback ❤ I will definitely plan to make a no-talking-just-music video with just artsy vibes in the future! 💕
@@Riniapple keep up the great work! I love your art and your story is super inspiring to me.
Thanks for sharing your process! Is it possible to turn the audio up a bit in your voiceovers?
Hii diegob!! Thank you for taking the time to listen! Yes!! Absolutely I can turn the audio up a bit in future voice overs ヽ(;▽;)ノ I got the same feedback in a previous comment, so I will definitely keep that in mind when editing future videos ❤ thank you!!
The feeling of your character being alive to you is your soul. Your artwork reminds me of the Naruto Shippuden Ending called Jitensha. Check it out!
Hii anthony!! ヽ(;▽;)ノ I love how you put it. Perhaps it is a piece of my soul manifesting on my canvas ❤And yess!!! I am a big Naruto fan! 🍥 Come to think of it, yeah! The artwork for that ending song does share some similarities to mine 💕
Hi! I'm new here ヾ(≧▽≦*)o
Your previous video got recommended to me. It's so nice to see that you're working on your dreams at a more comfortable pace now. Good luck on your art journey, can't wait to read your webcomic!
(^¬^)
Thank you so much insomniac!! And thank you also for taking a look at my newest video (>w
Lovely vlog! Please ramble all you want! 😂 good luck with your comic!
Just one note, there’s a noticeable difference in volume between your talking bits and your music ones, I have to raise it to hear you properly and then lower it cause then the music is a bit too loud 😅
Hii mandarina!! ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ Ahahaha! I'm glad you don't mind all my rambling. Thank you so much for your encouragement and support ( ; v ; )
And omg!! Ahhhh, I realized my talky bits were *significantly* quieter than the music I was using to edit the videos so I tried adjusting the levels a bit. I guess I didn't adjust them far enough(>ε<;;) Noted for next time!! Thank you so much for letting me know 💕
I've been trying to start a webtoon for a while now but I've been having motivation issues with the amount of work needed to make one. I wanted to ask how you find your motivation to keep going and how to enjoy the process of making it
Hi ovl! Thank you so much for watching and for leaving a comment!! Hmmm, very good question 🤔 Honestly, I’ve been struggling a lot with motivation to get myself to sit down and work on my comic as well. It’s a *big* job to do and just thinking about all the work that has to go into it can feel overwhelming at times. I definitely haven't found the answer yet, but in terms of what I am doing right now to stay motivated, I am actually trying to think of things and approach things in a different way - Deep down, I know the motivation is there. That’s why I feel such a need to make this comic in the first place. Instead, I need to lower the amount of energy it takes to conquer the initial inertia I face when deciding whether to sit down and work on my comic and eventually gain momentum. To do this, I am working on building up a habit of working on my comic during the same time every day. Just a few minutes to start, and then gradually build up. If you haven’t already, I’d highly recommend you read “Atomic Habits”. Hopefully this helps a bit >_< Good luck!! And keep going ❤
@@Riniapple thanks for the advice I'll try that, though it might be difficult at first since I procrastinate with other art projects all the time😅
why do i feel i know you somewhere
(´⊙ω⊙`)!
Oh my god! This is so cute! Can I ask what canvas size do you use on procreate?
Hii fallingsky!! ╰(*´︶`*)╯ Thank you so much for your comment. I'm so happy you think my art is cute O(≧∇≦)O To answer your question, I use a standard American manga page size of 5 x 7.5 inches + a 0.125-inch bleed at 350 dpi. So that works out to a canvas size of 5.26 x 7.76 inches (it gets rounded) at 350 dpi on Procreate! I hope that answers your question!
@@Riniapple thank you so much! That was so helpful
im so happy i found your channel you're so adorable! your art style is absolutely beautiful i wish you all the best on this journey (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) ♡ 18:00 also yes there has been times when i flip the drawing then i see all my mistakes LOL im like oh time to fix all of this (╥﹏╥) i hope you can continue to create long videos like this its truly amazing 𖹭
Hii rue!! (о´∀`о)/ Thank you so much for your comment (>\\
Hi, I just wanted to say thank you for sharing a little bit about your story and daily life. I am an illustrator too, so your videos are very inspiring and I can relate to them a lot. (I also like going to bed early and getting up before everyone else!) Hope you‘re having a wonderful day and I wish you all the best! ₍ᐢ•ﻌ•ᐢ₎*:・゚
Hii hannah!! (*^ω^*) Thank you so much for taking the time to watch my video and leave a comment 🌸 I’m so glad you enjoyed my slow-paced video (>\\
I likey you..
What’s the webtoon name? I would love to read it!
Heart on a Stale Canvas!! It’s not yet released but will be soon ❤
need a better mic can barely hear you
Yes!! A few people have mentioned the same thing. I’ll make sure to adjust the audio properly in my next video! Thank you for your feedback ❤
I don’t even normally like slice of life but your comic sounds really cool 🙂 I’d like to read it once you’re posting it on WebToon. Regarding a posting schedule, it’s probably useful to time how long it takes you to finish an episode so you can get a useful time range. (While working full time, 🫨 it may even be most realistic to commit to monthly updates)
Your office is so soothing, it really makes me want to get my workspace in order because that would be a useful aspect to getting a lot of work done. (I don’t even have a proper writing desk right now. 😅🤣😁).
Picking a designated color palette for your comic is a great idea, now that you mention it 🤔 I should do that for my comic too! I think it’ll really help set the mood too.
I don’t mind your humming 🙂 I think it goes nicely with the music 🥰
And Yomi is so cute! 🥺😭🐶💝💕💕
Hii feathers!! ヾ(〃^∇^)ノ♪ Ahh!! That makes me so happy that you'd be willing to try reading a different genre! I really really hope my comic doesn't disappoint (> . < ) And great tip about the posting schedule!! I haven't really been able to figure out how long it takes me to illustrate pages since I've been so inconsistent with working on them x_x;; My next goal is to build a routine (a habit) of working on my comic at certain times of the day / certain days of the week and see how many pages I'm producing once I really get into the swing of things. I suspect (based on my previous pace from my last comic) that I will probably be able to comfortably make 2-3 pages a week. But we'll see! Ahaha, and thank you for your compliment about my office and my silly humming (*>ω
