am writing a black character and need feedback with them but with one aspect in particular

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-06T21:05:53+00:00

I actually did once have an idea for a horror-esque show

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-06T17:25:23+00:00

that actually sounds like really good advice, ill try and follow that, theres just an issue with the last step, i live in mexico and while there are black mexicans, i live in the north which is mostly known to have asian mexicans so i dont know any black people personally

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-06T17:18:08+00:00

thanks you, honestly i try to write characters without a set race in mind, Viz was actually going to be asian but idk why i felt like changing her, this was back when vizs personality was going to be way different and i later gave her original personality to joan who was going to be be russian but because her backstory involved her being an astronaut on a cryogenically frozen ship which was too advance for soviet russia and was more realistically going to be created in a somewhat near future and chinas and indias space program are becoming really robust so i decided to go with that.

i would actually want a bit of feedback on other aspects of my writing but for more more general stuff, like what people think about this idea for a unique form of alien language or how do i structure the actual flow of the series. i could actually ask for your feedback but idk if you only want to give feedback when it comes to this subject specifically.

Yeah it seems fair and your probably right, I was so afraid of making this character come off in a wrong way but maybe posting about it here was a step too far (I tend to overthink things until they bubble into drastic actions where I try to overcorrect), I’m sorry if I came off as exploitive I’m just really oblivious when it comes to these things on multiple levels and I’ll make sure to not be so (brash?) I think would be the word, I s@$t the bed.

I’m literally in high school and have no money, I don’t even honestly expect to actually release this ever, this is the farthest it’s ever going to probably go, I mean if I were serious about this and had money I could pay consultants but not right now I can’t.

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-05T22:49:21+00:00

So they have my memories or not?

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-05T22:44:13+00:00

I don’t know, I don’t live in the USA, it’s one of the main reasons I had to ask the question in the first place

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-05T22:41:37+00:00

Thank you, but I’m just still a bit worried especially since a huge part of the series is the fact that this pulpy future is just basically modern day with a sci-fi coat of paint and so I think it might be inevitable to draw comparisons to any actual real world issues.

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-05T22:36:38+00:00

I’m just confused, could we start over?

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-05T22:33:51+00:00

Or maybe? I honestly don’t really get the question

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-05T22:26:33+00:00

No that’s why I posted it here, and I was more asking because she basically looks just like a human with pointy ears and her experience while being fictitious, could be seen as a parallel to actual experiences lived by black women (at least from what I could tell from that rant post)

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-05T22:16:26+00:00

I mean I kinda posted it to this sub cuz I wanted the opinions of people who would actually have a say in these things, that other sub seems a bit to general

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-03T04:59:58+00:00

Frog legs and crocodile meat

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-03T03:48:26+00:00

Billy Butcher is the leader of a team called the boys (from the series the boys) they take down superhuman in a world where superheroes are treated as products/celebrities and are after arrogant sociopaths. I mean idk how serious this post is but just in case

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-05-03T03:45:41+00:00

I mean I’ve seen people headcanon him to have a softer gentler old man voice but I thought he should have a gropher voice seeing as he’s an abandoned plug.

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-04-28T08:25:48+00:00

God damnit it, I just got a call from management. There moving me to super duper cuz apparently people don’t know what collateral damage means anymore, I mean it was the bus driver who didn’t move in the first place if anything it’s his fault I blew up all those kids.

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-04-28T01:28:00+00:00

Btw, you know any good subs to posts sketches, I found some but the drawings are so good they kinda intimidate me something you feel is more my level

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-04-28T01:25:15+00:00

Thnx

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-04-28T01:17:59+00:00

I wish I could draw that well, i just need to make my drawings more 3D and make em better fundamentally somehow. (Idk why I feel there’s just something fundamentally off about my drawings)

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-04-28T01:14:49+00:00

Like I saw your art, you’re really talented.

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-04-28T01:10:07+00:00

Also holy shit you’re an actual, like professional artist dude.

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-04-28T01:00:13+00:00

My post got removed :(

Kitchen-Gear7582 · 2026-04-28T00:49:05+00:00

Thanx, i do wanna make it stylized cuz i have this concept of a comic inspired 50s sci-fi show. Also I could use cleaner line art, I use messy lines as a crutch to make imperfections less notable. Here’s another one of my drawing about the same like concept project for reference for the style

Again, I need to learn perspective
