I’ve attempted to write a FAQ a few times but they’ve always ended up not helpful or helpful but depressing. But due to a recent spike in questions I’ve decided to just go for it.
Besides this post, the FAQ also got it’s own permanent page.
Is Guy and Wayne a couple?
- No they’re just friends, if that’s a word you can use to describe their relationship. Frenemies?
Do Frank, Guy and Wayne live together, like are they roommates?
- This is unclear even to me, If a joke requires them to be roommates, then that’s what they are.
What’s Guy’s real name?
- I’m not sure, I haven’t asked.
Hello, I’m a writer and I need someone to draw a comic, I can’t pay right now, (maybe later if the comic sells) but It’ll be good practice and great exposure for you! are you interested?
- No, I got my own stories I would like to tell if I ever got the time. Also those reasons aren’t real.
Do you have any tips on how to start a webcomic?
- Just start it.
No, Really.
I don’t know how to make a website for my comic, can you help?
- Neither did I but then I Googled “comicpress” you should too.
How do you become a professional artist?
- By having people pay you to do art. You can be a professional artist at any skill level, as long as you make a living out of your craft, you’re by definition a “professional artist”.
Of course, the more skilled you are, the bigger the chance of someone paying you. but you need to market yourself, very few artist just gets “found”.
How long have you been drawing?
- I started for real around 2003, then around 2006 I decided it’s what I’d like to do with my life.
Do you exhibit at any conventions?
- I’d like to, I attended San Diego Comic Con in 2011, but I’ve yet to exhibit at any convention. Living in Sweden makes the logistics and expenses very overwhelming.
Some day!
How did you come up with Twogag?
- It kinda just evolved from a vacuum. I only knew what I didn’t want in the comic. I didn’t want Twogag to rely on pop culture references, I didn’t want any self insertion characters and I didn’t want it to be about videogames.
How do I become an artist?
- Draw.
How do I become a writer?
- Write.
I’d like to become better at drawing, got any tips?
- Everybody says this, but it’s the only way, man. Just draw, draw, draw, draw. Sacrifice your gaming, friend and movie time and draw some more.
But something every aspiring artist should ask themselves is; “do I actually like to draw, or do I just like the idea of drawing?”
I want to become a professional webcartoonist, got any tips?
- Love drawing, hate money.
If you meet the above criteria and do create a webcomic, market it. Don’t just post your pages or strips and expect readers to find it.
Do you write your comics beforehand or just free-ball it?
- I generally start out with a vague idea or concept and develop it either in my head or as I write it.
It’s a good idea to remove yourself from distractions such as the internet while doing this. I used to browse sites a lot with the excuse “I’m looking for inspiration.” but that has yet to work.
What software do you use?
- Adobe Photoshop.
What version of Photoshop do you use?
- It doesn’t matter.
What’s the best question you’ve been asked?
- This one.
Will you ever make a FAQ?
- I have a feeling the frequency of this question will subside, but yes.
Her stability is creepy.
that is… some sort of psychology wizardry right there. Geeze. Guy is so manipulative. XD
The blonde looks totally adorable in the first panel :)
That’s because after guy and woman who’s smiling looks like an angel.
Guy’s just jealous because the blond has tha bigger boobs…..
BTW, I love the shadows that most comics leave out. Makes it that much better. Hellspawn has a point. I shudder to think what lies behind the mean mask…
Umm, any female over the age of 12 has bigger boobs than Guy. I would hope she has gotten over that by now.
Looks like we’re going to have two Code Waynes here.
From the archives – behind Guy’s mean mask, when you give her drugs to take away the rage, is a person who is mean because she wants to be.
Oh, she is also demon possessed. Perhaps by multiple demons. Frank and Wayne actually put them back in because they were freaked out about the way she was after they performed an exorcism.
I have a folder on my computer filled with pictures I have that will be shown during my funeral whenever that may be. This just got added lol
I think they should jello wrestle for the job.
Who is Guy always texting?!
Maybe an unknown bff? But that would be too scary because she had to be just like Guy o.0
She’s text-bullying Wayne obviously. Or tweeting.
Let the record show that I just fell in undying love with Guy.
Rickard, you rock!
Haha the blonde’s sweating bullets in the 3rd panel. Guy’s really perceptive
You know, for some jobs Guy’s attitude could work.
I, as Guy, Refuse to give a Fuck most of the time of my life. Oddly enough, it’s gotten me at least 5 perfect marks over the last 10 courses of college.
omg if guy had a twitter it would be amazing
Guy, that was cruel and usual. I expect nothing less from you. :j
dear god, i love this girl x)
I failed my module today for being honest, I think the “You’re wasting my bloody time! I pay YOU for me be here and you give me this bullshit in return! I would be better off getting a degree from a cereal box for all the good this is going to do me!” got me flunked. My lecturer really wasn’t very happy.
Mad props for being that honest with them, though.
fire crotch got a point.
Blondie’s so nervous in the last panel even her skirt is flushed.
The funny thing is, I agree with her logic in a way, because it is actually true in a lot of cases
In Sweden all blondes are honest and dull, except for the sizzler I met in Mariestad during my summer vacation.
Oops, I meant Mariefred.
Love How the doctor is sporting the ( The “Hmmm” Finger Gun Of Doom)
I wish people acted like the folks on the comment here when I’m honest. people here love Guy, but in my experience it varies from people who think I’m funny to those who say I don’t understand how to talk to people.
and it’s never help me get a job…
I can’t help but expect demonic shadows sneaked in when seeing Guys shadow on the wall (and perhaps to have it turn on there’s a jackass windowwasher working to creep people out)
I don’t know if I would hire Guy, anyway… ^ ^’
I would. She’s brutally honest and if you do get her to like something or at least say it’s ok then you MUST have something good.
Last time I had a job interview I was asked why I wanted to work for the company.
“I’m skint and need money.” Was my response.
I’ve been working there for 8 years now.
Interviewer: Can’t tell if moron or genius…
