Ok back again.
I’ve been thinking about the unique challenges of creating fully colored online comics on my own. It’s tricky finding the right balance between how often to post and keeping the story moving. For example, it feels a bit underwhelming to have a weekly update where all that happens is a character moves a chair. On the other hand, dedicating more panels to these small actions can really add depth and give a better sense of character, but it does slow the story down.
In traditional comics, where entire teams work together and release the whole thing at once, there’s more freedom to pace things differently. As a solo creator, I could let each page unfold more slowly, but I worry that might not keep readers engaged. This balancing act seems to come with the territory of weekly online comics. I’m always aiming to push the story forward and keep things interesting.
Just some thoughts—there’s really no right or wrong in art, just constant adjustments and sometimes struggling to find that sweet spot.

Adding depth to scenes and certain moments is important to a story. I as a reader am often more intrigued when the story goes through different paces. It makes the scene feel more critical when it's drawn out. A scene where someone moves a chair could take up a whole page and it would just make me think the character puts a lot of thought into their actions, where they put it, maybe how they carried it, if those things matter to the character, then they matter to me, no matter how mundane.

Mix of black and white and color can help. Honestly I don't hate the pacing you've set. Something intriguing happens every story page even if it's not super wowing and groundbreaking. It doesn't have to be though! I think you're doing a good job. Weekly and twice weekly releases are laborious as heck so I commend you!

Your draws are amazing Bubblebum, what you can do if is less laborious for you, is to keep some pages Blank and white and important ones in color, so with that you could get more time, and in the future if you want color them. The reason is that I love dramatic parts, other people may like more sex focused scenes.

I say take your time with it if you feel you want to, you do a fantastic job for just a single artist and I'm thrilled to see where the story goes still~
