    Dinger.ca - My Web Comic!

    Hey Cats,

    I just thought I'd post a thread about my web comic. I just started it 4 weeks ago and I've been updating it regularly. (Monday to Friday).

    Http://www.dinger.ca



    It's kind of like Explosm.net's Cyanide and Happiness.

    Anyway, read through some of my bad jokes and let me know whatcha think!

    I like how each comic is drawn differently. The hilarity of the entries go off and on, but I still laugh nonetheless. There is a strange tingling feeling that makes me look forward to your daily comics, I mean it! You definitely should continue updating and who knows, you might become famous one day! Most importantly, enjoy yourself!

    What art programs do you use? I suggest that whenever you save your artwork, put it on 300 resolution and as a .png file to get better quality.

    Experiment! It is apparent in your entries because each comic is stylized. Keep doing that! Add a little more work to it though. Put more color, color entirely rather than leave white spaces open, refrain from sketching too much, use less lines as well as make them crisp and clean, differentiate your panel layout, and finally, take your time with it. However you want to create your works and when you release them is up to you.

    Hopefully I'm not implying that I'm beating you over the head with demands, haha. I apologize for any annoyance that may come out of this.

    What are your motivations for creating Dinger.ca? How did you come up with the idea of making your own web comic?

    Btw, are you familiar with Pictures for Sad Children?

    Hey, thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate it!

    Yeah, My comics definitely need more time/effort put into them. It's just I have quite a tight time constrain and I find it difficult to get the quality as high as I'd like it. When I'm done school in April I'll be putting a lot more effort into my comics.

    As far as motivation goes -

    I drew a lot of doodles/comics on my pages at school instead of doing my work. I make really bad jokes and I enjoy them equally as much. I'm pretty creative and good at pulling random ideas out of my ass so... Who knows?

    I'd love to make web comics as a full time job though. Only a handful of people actually make enough money off of their sites to survive on though... Oh well. I just started 4 weeks ago... Maybe after a couple years I'll actually be making some cash.

    Which web comics do you usually subscribe to?

    No problem! I'm into Cyanide, VGCats, and Pictures for Sad Children. Cyanide has a very simplistic art style as well as PSC, while a lot of the jokes are clever and hilarious. You can see the comics on dA now. VGCats parodies a lot of the video games with a unique art style only for the artist itself. Wow, haha, excuse me for concentrating on the art style so much. ^^;;

    PSC, which I just got into recently, has a colorful cast of characters. For example, a half-asian ghost and an office worker with low self-esteem and social anxiety disorder. You'll have to check it out yourself!

    Happy comic-ing!
