HERE'S PART 2: • I FINISHED MY COMIC! |...
The FINISHED comic: imgur.com/a/Q5zarv8
I thought I put this project to rest by making a video about it a few weeks ago, but since I've started this channel, I've made myself accountable publicly to what I make, and I can't let this year end without having finished this project that I originally started back in 2015.
So here's part 1 of 2 in my attempt to finish and distribute this comic book.

I'd never heard of you before, but your showing up in my suggestions couldn't have been more timely. I have never made a comic before, but have an idea that I want to make tangible, and watching you push yourself to finish a project that you initially intended to abandon is really inspiring me. And yet, funnily enough, it was your prominent use of one of my favorite songs from Hotel Dusk that pushed me to subscribe to you.

@KurtIndovina 5 лет назад

HOTEL DUSK SHALL FOREVER BIND US. Thank you for watching, and thank you for taking the time to comment. Please go make your comic, even if it doesn't work out. At least give it a shot. Again, Hotel Dusk is good.

Oefff, This is so relatable, Got a drawer full of game and asset sketches, ideas and doodles. I've got the rule now that I need to finish my current project before starting a new one. Although the rule works it's still a matter of showing up every week to work on it after work. Making a mobile game is just so much work. Keep up the good stuff Kurt, And thanks for reacting to your comments. You have a nice community here :)

@KurtIndovina 5 лет назад

Everyone says they have the best community, but I believe in my heart, that we truly have the best, most wholesome community. And it's thanks to cool cats like you who show up here and share your time with me. In terms of finishing projects, YES -- you're right. Finishing one project at a time has only so much weight as long as you SHOW UP. And that's the key.

@cartooncottage2024 3 года назад

I'd never be able to do this with the type of life I have now. People are always interrupting any form of Me-time I have at my house. This could only be accomplished if you live alone or if you live with someone who knows how to give you your space.

@KurtIndovina 3 года назад

It’s definitely VERY hard. I currently live in a small studio apartment with my girlfriend (who is also working from home at the moment) with our two cats, and the pandemic has made it increasingly difficult to work “alone”. So I completely get it. For me, and I know this isn’t easy for everyone, I started getting up at 4:30am, and basically write and draw until my girlfriend wakes up at 7, and that has created a really solid routine for me to be completely alone in the morning while I work on my comic, and then transition into my “day job” work after she wakes up. It’s work been helping.

@cartooncottage2024 3 года назад

@@KurtIndovina That sounds like a good idea. I sometimes wake up early to start my morning routine before class. So, I will try doing this on days when I'm free so I could be able to make time for my comic, too. Thanks :-)

@bridgetnichols4255 5 лет назад

What you said at the end with quantity leading to quality is so true, and you said it so well! I watch so much on RU-vid, but you are the only youtuber I've ever found that I actually find worth listening to. It's so refreshing to have creators like you who make content worth watching, and not just the mindless click bait that a lot of youtubers are creating(Not saying that there's not others creating good content, but youtube seems to favor pointless videos). I don't know if what I just said makes any sense, but basically when ever I watch your videos, I feel like I'm not outright wasting my time. Your videos are always so well thought out, and you have so much to say. Every time I watch one of your videos, I am amazed at just how simple yet incredible your videos are. I can't wait to read your comic, and your next part for this video!

@KurtIndovina 5 лет назад

Bridget, I TOTALLY get what you're saying. It does make sense, and I happen to agree with you. So hearing you say and think that, is deeply motivating to me, and validates why I do everything I do. I believe I've said this to you already, but I'll say it again: thank you for watching my videos, and thank you for your continuous support. I hope your game development is going well, by the way!

@snowconesolid 5 лет назад

Very inspiring and motivational. That's the right mindset to be in for any project. Just finish it. Perfectionism ruins progress. I love that you said "I'm allowing myself to fuck up". More progress is made when we fuck up. More shit gets done. Thank you Kurt for constantly inspiring me with your videos. Can't wait to see your comic! It's looking real good!

@KurtIndovina 5 лет назад

Saying I inspire YOU is one of the most motivational things you could have said to me, because your work and drive is equally as inspiring to me! You're great, Samer.

@snowconesolid 5 лет назад

Kurt Indovina Love you man. Honestly, your channel, videos,you have all been super inspiring to me, especially your more recent ones. So, thank you. Let's keep inspiring each other, achieve our goals/dreams and most importantly, finish it.

@IgorKolar 5 лет назад

haHAAA!!! Hooray! To be honest, I had a feeling this might happen, and good for you sir! Personally, if you don't finish by Friday? Keep going and post it when you're done, don't chop it up if you didn't think of it chopped up, just for the sake of meeting a deadline. I'm pretty sure we'll all be here when you're done with it :) Cheers, and good luck!

@TitlePending 5 лет назад

Comics is a hard career, but I think it's something you could get into given all the stuff your into, plus you are in a comics mecca. Got sucked into work and computer issues, but this has helped get me motivated after a bummer week. Thank you.

@Person.aMedia Год назад

It's interesting you mention releasing it in pieces because I plan on releasing something on 4/28 online for free and decided to release just 7 pages, which has 25 panels. Then every 7 days after, releasing another 7 pages and another until I have released the full 28 pages, 28 days later. It is rough though as I am doing it all on My own, can get easily distracted, am not the best artist, and the artist that was originally going to do it kinda faded out of existence but I want to stick to this deadline and get it done before My birthday in May.

I don't think it's entirely necessary to finish EVERYTHING we start. But, after actually showing this comic, it compelled me to finish it. STILL, I'm very curious to what your comic was...
