Our comic of the month for October is Ventura City Drifters. Discuss it with other forumites here!
Hey guys, a webcomic artist recommended I try out this forum to mingle a bit, said that there are nice people here.I'm also a webcomic artist myself, and I have had a webcomic up for about 7 months now. It's pretty new, so I don't have a big following, but the readers I have are very faithful.I got into ssss because I'm a big fan of long, epic stories and most of all I'm a fan of Scandinavian themes. I'm Norwegian myself, born in Trondheim and now I'm studying visual development in San Francisco, USA. So yeah, I hope to meet people here with similar interests as me, and seeing that a lot of people here are Scandinavian I think I'm in the right place! Hope to make some friends, making a comic alone is very lonely.
Hello and welcome! Yes I would say you are in the right place! There are quite a few Scandinavians here, we have representatives from all the countries, including Iceland and Finland, and actually quite a few Norwegians, even someone who is in Trondheim. I know there are also people who live in San Fran who are on the forum as well. They have even met up in the past. There are a few other webcomic artists here too. I think you will fit in here well Please feel free to mingle. We have many art threads that you can look at, from fan art, to general art, to crafting. You can find a more complete list of art threads here.
WHAT!!!! SOMEONE FROM TRONDHEIM BUT DOESN'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE!!!! what am i, cursed I mean!! Hi!! Welcome to the forum!!! What's your webcomic called? O:
Y-you're from Trondheim?? aaaa! well, I am only studying in America, I visit home twice a year! Not sure I'll stay here for long after I graduate, if I get a job I will. I'm torn between working in a studio here in California or go home and try to make an art career in Norway.This is my comic http://www.fjordsoncomic.com/ and keep in mind it's kinda new (around 7 months maybe?) and has about 73 pages, I'm still trying to get the story really going. I can't update as many times as Minna (what a beast!) because I got classes n stuff, but my current update schedule is 3 times a week. I'm hoping someday (far into the future probs) to do nothing but the comic haha. Maybe one day! For now I'm grateful for every single reader I get, so I hope you like it.I'm going to Trondheim this winter btw!
aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!also dang your comic looks SO GOOD, i think i'm gonna read it immediately. wait - is the first chapter page of Røros? O:edit: haha probably not røros but i certainly got some røros-y vibes therealso a tiny tip - your tumblr and devart links don't work at, you don't need to fill in the .tumblr.com and .deviantart.com ^___^oh and now that i'm rereading your intro post when i'm actually awake - we do have some threads about own webcomics and webcomic making discussions - here and here!
Welcome, Malin. I think you've found your feet pretty fast! I live in San Mateo myself (about 30 minutes south of SF) and was the co-organizer of the San Francisco Meet-Up in June. We hope to have another before the end of the year (or whenever it works for people) and hopefully you can join us!Where are you studying? BTW, I'm kind of embarrassed but the only reason I recognize "Malin" as a female name is a passage from "Pippi Longstocking" where she talks about how her mother's maid, Malin, used to do crazy things. (No reference to present company intended!)
Awesome! I study at the Academy of art university. We have a city campus in San Francisco, and I live in downtown San Francisco.I think it would be cool to meet, is it a meetup for forum peeps here?
So yeah, I hope to meet people here with similar interests as me, and seeing that a lot of people here are Scandinavian I think I'm in the right place! Hope to make some friends, making a comic alone is very lonely.
