College Confidential Community

<p>Hey everyone, I don't know if you remember when I posted this thread, <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-confidential-cafe/420061-how-screw-up-college-interview.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-confidential-cafe/420061-how-screw-up-college-interview.html&lt;/a>, where I was asking for ideas about how to screw up a college interview because I was working on making a comic for it. </p>

<p>Well, I finished the comic! I actually finished it a while ago, but I got caught up in other things, and then I was wondering how I should post it...I suppose this will have to do. :)</p>

<p>Let me remind you that this was just for fun, and I know it's not perfect. The image is a little big, but when it was small it was hard to read the text. So enjoy! Let me know what you think.</p>

<p>That is really good. You are incredibly talented. I am truly impressed. </p>

<p>P.S.-Is there no mouth in the first box on purpose?</p>

<p>Oh, yes, I suppose there isn't a mouth, hm?</p>

<p>My art is based off of japanese comics (manga), and sometimes there are panels where characters have no mouths, noses, or even eyes in order to bring about a certain effect. In this case, I guess I liked the effect of the character being somewhat speechless. :)</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>haha that's cool. did you draw that on the computer? also, i was browsing your website, and I was SO SURPRISED that you are not asian ahahah.</p>

<p>First I sketched the comic out, and scanned it, and then I inked it on Photoshop. Then I used different layers to color it and add text. What I love about it is that if you mess up, you can always press "undo". :D</p>

<p>Yes, I am very much white. I'll take your comment as a compliment, though. Thanks, art_star!</p>

<p>Your website is also very nice. I clicked on the link to the boyfriend picture and was a bit confused for a minute.</p>

7

<p>^^HAHAHA. I completely forgot about that. I need to fix that, because I broke up with the guy I used to call 'bf'. No, I'm not really dating Bruce Lee, because he's dead, and was married anyway (to a white woman, I may add!).</p>

<p>beautiful comic -I like your artwork a lot ^-^ love the sweater vest w/ leather pants!</p>

<p>im a big fan of Photoshop too. Only that i haven't been keeping up with it good enough in HS.</p>

<p>oh and i was reading your thread for ideas. For one more way to screw up an interview would be asking the opposite-sex interviewer 'do you have a bf/gf?' Haha i almost felt like doing it but refrained.</p>

<p>^^Haha yeah, that's a good one, hitting on the interviewer...(I read your post, lol). Don't worry, there will be other hot interviewers out there for you. ;D</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I love it.
So good!</p>

11

<p>I forgot to add- one thing that I especially noticed were the backgrounds. They were really colorful and truly added to the picture. So again, good job!</p>

12

<p>WOW! Your really good!</p>

13

<p>that was really nice! Beautiful coloring and everything, funny also. Anymore in the works?</p>

<p>Unfortunately, there are no more comics that are currently in the works. I'm very busy with my IB classes and swimming. However, around April I would like to share a 10 page comic I made, which I feel is a lot more intricate and less sloppy than this one.</p>

<p>Thank you for all your kind words, everyone!</p>

<p>I'll think about making another comic...just gotta find the right inspiration. :)</p>
