Cool.

What happens if we draw something for the comic gallery that isn't meant to have any color, though?

I'm not asking to sound like a jackass or anything, I'd just like to avoid complications because there are times when we'll draw something (drawn, inked, scanned, etc.) and consider it finished without having any color.


The term finished drawing covers a wide range that includes images without color. As this is a concept new to HM this will take some time to get used. Using your examples, one of them is clearly a finished piece. Aside from the ink lines you have take the time to clean the image up to present it in it's best light possible. I would consider the second a sketch with a bit of post work. You clearly added some tone, and cleaned up the scan, but the line work is still in a rough state.

It would be nice to be able to display it somewhere that it's going to be seen by everyone in order to get a wider range of feedback.


We understand this desire. It is the reason why we have created the new forum rather than summarily deleting sketches from the gallery.

Are we no longer allowed to post these in the more frequented galleries, or do we need to make an addendum that it is, in fact, a finished image?


As long as you understand the difference between being finished, and a finished piece you may post those to the Comic Gallery without it being necessary to add a qualifier.

Plus, is the HFACG still going to be available for WIP drawings or is that off limits as well?


If such a place existed (which it doesn't) I am sure it would operate as it always did. (which it can't since it doesn't exist)

Again, this isn't meant to be aggravating or confrontational. I'm just looking for a clarification.


This is all new to everyone so you needn't worry about that. In fact you do a service for our pencilers by asking these questions in an open forum.

Oh, and thank God no one thought to call the new forum "The Doodle Den"...
I like that one
