Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
From the ask game - 📝 What do your notes look like?
(your comic is gorgeous btw the traditional mixed media thing is SOOOO COOL)
Hello, thank you!! I've loved following the Nimbus duo 🥺
For notes, I have a big messy doc where I just screenshot + paste game events that I find interesting / important, sometimes with little notes added on
And then I have a neater doc with notes on characters, worldbuilding stuff which wont come up for like. months lol but. , etc. My memory is pretty shot so as the clan gets up to like 9, 10 members I need some notes to keep all their personalities & relationships straight lol.
For the comic itself, once I've played far enough I'll jot down a general story arc for those moons to give them a direction, & take rough notes on the events & emotional arcs of the main characters for that storyline. Then I break that up into events going moon-by-moon.
THEN I write out scripts for each moon more in-depth, referencing my rough arc outline & the events that happened that moon for flavour (I'm finished rough scripts for this whole first arc, though a few still need a bit of work to make them. gooder).
Then on to my really janky thumbnails, and then I'm ready to actually draw the page!
TY for the ask! :-)
