π It was a passion project I made back when I was 17, written in the unintelligible language of Danish ahah. But it's interesting you say that, because I do music right now. I record vocals and produce the beats myself, but I outsource all the mixing and mastering to a talented pro, after realising my head would explode if I kept mixing everything myself. And of course, i had some challenges communicating what I IMAGINED the mix to sound like in the start. But my engineer is really good at translating it, it's paid off insane dividends and definitely worth the money. Point is, I'm sure I could learn to mix/master to a good degree, but it's really a matter of the 80/20 rule. The time i'd spend on the "80" would really spread me thin and probably kill my passion for doing it altogether. While on the other hand, I can now write, produce and record a new song while the mix is being made, so I'm personally all for it

Feel free to send me your comic mate, Iβd love to take a look. Iβve definitely thought about it many times, I think I donβt like the additional complexity itβd add to the process I think. Iβve been in collaborative projects before with music and itβs a pain in the butt to organise other people sometimes. Then thereβs the other aspect of sorting out a contract and also pay, itβs just a lot yk? Itβs slow work as a one man band, but itβs reliable and I have full control over of every single aspect of the project.

It really is isnβt it! Thanks so much Victor ππ»

That way, you'll be able to only take care of linework, speech bubbles and other post-linework elements, and you'll have less on your plate

As someone who's made a small webcomic before, I fully understand the struggle of being a one-man army. Just out of curiosity, have you considered outsourcing the colouring/shading process to someone? Of course, you would have to be somewhat hands on by telling the person what colours to use, where the light source is, etc. But I imagine it would greatly speed up the output and pay off in the long run, once you find someone like that

Itβs really hard to find the perfect colours and use them properly, so anyway itβs a great job done. thank youπ
