Hey! Lots of very good advice in that post. I did a quick checklist in my head, and for the most part I think I'm doing things right by following most of your advice..phew. the thing about easy to draw characters was mentioned to me before so I will be sure to keep that in mind. I'm probably going to go through one or two rounds of feedback with the actual script, while I explore design and concepting. I've seen people struggle by not doing the work up front with story and I do not want to put myself in that position, it looks like a crap place to be, especially after you've started the art.
My story is a one off non serialised type affair, so I want to make sure the art is as unique, exciting and as good as I can at this time. Yes the story has to work and be interesting, but I'm focusing equally on both from the get go. That is why I intend to do enough style exploration to really nail the look beforehand so things don't evolve too much as I go. I know it may be hard to stop that happening, but if it does I will go back and fix things up.
Cool well welcome to the thread!
