Hmmm...

So, ages ago, I had this idea for a comic series, or perhaps a tv show, called the Realm. A very abstract, dark comedy kind of thing filled with odd other-dimensional creatures. It was unfinished and unpolished, and though I had character ideas they didn't knit together, and back then my writing skills weren't as good and my art even worse. But now I find myself working on it, art and note wise, writing down my ideas and its kinda 'clicked' and came together. I even came up with a pretty good plot twist and reason for certain things happening.

Thing is...my art is limited. Like, I'm good at certain things, but in other areas I can't manage. Perspective, close up, detail; my hand gets shaky on the pen so I have to do quick strokes. I can't do landscapes and whatnot. I've tried to improve, slowly drawn an image with the thing right in front of me, but something in my brain just messes up. So a comic is a big stretch. Writing-wise, I could probably manage - but this is a very visual thing and writing it won't cut it for some of the characters. And there's certainly no way I'd be able to pitch a Tv show.

I don't know, maybe my art well get better with practice, but its hard to practice when you can't seem to manage some things at all.

Or, the ran about how What-If-Writer's brain hates itself.

Oh my, I feel like that all darn time!

I want to pour my many ideas on paper... on ANYTHING... yet my brain tells me "DO IT" and my skill says me "pah, you wish!"...

I am VERY limited... I struggle with every written or drawn piece... but I love to do it and NEVER GAVE UP. No matter what this ugly skill tells me, I NEVER SURRENDER!

And practice, practice all the time!

I know you can pour your ideas as you wish... you only need time :hug:
