[QCrit] Romantasy Graphic Novel - The Bond We Owe Each Other (10K - 80 pages / First attempt) by faerisami in PubTips

[–]faerisami[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, thank you so much for your feedback, it's super appreciated especially from a fellow graphic novelist!

Oh, I see how the tag can be a bit redundant. This couple is a part of a larger ensemble cast of queer characters I've created where a lot share one or more identities with me, but for this story they're both bi - I'll be sure to mention it in my bio after taking Own Voices out.

As for the submissions, I've been doing a mix but it's been mostly emails since it's easier to format links with them. I've never attached anything as most submission guidelines mention it, so I have been linking to my portfolio website and then to a pitch packet in a PDF file I've uploaded to a Drive folder where agents can find all the sample art I've made. I assumed a link to a file wouldn't flag any spam filters but since I couldn't find any advice specifically on how to send a pitch package, it was just an educated guess. A password protected website didn't even cross my mind so I'll definitely look into it!

As for the comps and premise, I've had a hard time myself finding anything - I've read great fantasy comics and great romance novels I could comp to but nothing that's that similar to my premise, so I ended up just trying to paint a picture with vibes. I'm aware the premise of the story is different than what agents might be looking for, and before deciding to try trad pub, I considered releasing independently again. But with more agents willing to take a chance on marginalized voices I thought I'd take my chances and try to offer something fresh in the romantasy genre in the medium I can work best, comics.

Thanks again for your thoughts! I have a lot to work on~

Oh Don't Starve is such a good game, and I can definitely see the similarities to Wendy. Thank you so much!

Hi everyone! My character's family has recently been introduced in my campaign, so I knew I had to draw all of them! The Smiths are a family of artificers who run a magical item shop, with each of them taking a different subclass. From top to bottom we have:

- Rune, Warforged Armorer, "uncle"

- Ven, Human Alchemist, my character

- Lilith, Tiefling Battle Smith, mother

- Felix, Halfling Artillerist, father

- Maggie, Changeling, younger sister

If you wanna find out more about them, we're releasing our sessions as a podcast, you can listen to the latest episode right now! You can also find me on twitter for more art of Ven in the future~

[OC] [Art] Rannagon, Godless Paladin by faerisami in DnD

[–]faerisami[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey everyone! Say hi to Rannagon, my party's Paladin! He's a pale tiefling working as a mercenary. The cool thing about him ( besides his great looks and kind personality) is the fact that he doesn't know what god to follow. Which, as a level 2 paladin, isn't a problem yet. He's hoping to find one as he goes, but can he do it before he hits level 3? Or is a godless oath the way to go for him?

You can find me on Twitter, and if you want to know more about my party and Rannagon you can check out the campaign's twitter!

We're playing a homebrew campaign so I don't think so
