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.
Frank should of known if it was Scientific Mortality his would of been sent in the mail lol
…*have.
cry more. please.
Careful; it’s no longer appropriate to point out and correct someone else’s ignorance. Better to let them continue to look stupid than to point out an error so that they might possibly learn something. We don’t want any bruised egos or hurt feelings, now do we?
You did excactly what Nil wanted ,
so follow your own advice and stop falling for those traps
I apologize. You are right. Let those of us who have standards stay silent for fear of being shamed by those who don’t. (Oh, what a fool I’ve been! D:!)
I didnt said OBBEY
I said Be coherent
I can remember back in the first strip or two, when Frank was the normal one. Oh, how times have changed.
Well that only lasted until about strip 5 so yeah not really all that much
Actually strip 18 ( http://www.twogag.com/archives/141 ) was the first deliberately “evil” one :) but we are up to more than 263
Pedantic, maybe, but I don’t know about “deliberately evil.” The muffins were meant for the mouse trap Frank’s setting up; that Wayne didn’t ask the right question before eating it is simply unfortunate on his part.
No its the fifth strip(http://www.twogag.com/archives/43)
This clown plan is definitively mad
Can a man dressed as a clown not clean his gun while mumbling about revenge in a stormy fullmoon night without being called a madman?
Sheesh, people these days!
No im a fan of Madness
Oddly enough, i never saw him as normal.
This illustrates why spelling is important. It could save your life…..unless you’re dealing with Frank of course.
Great guest strip. Your art style and comedy flows very well with this comic. :D
guest artist kept his art really close to the original.
and this is definitely something i would expect from frank
The problem with the guest artist is they’re always limited their strip to “Frank makes something immoral with science and Oops lol !”
I’ve only see one guest strip different :/
Well, it’s because Frank is the best, so guest comic writers do something about the best aspect of the comic. :P
PLEASE MAKE A STORY ARC
oh wow, he can read
