Gah! It's the block again!
Man, writers block sucks. I can't seem to get any inspiration this time around, if I try too hard it'll get worse (now my Adobe crashed so I can't work on the manga now if I could). I'm afraid of adding a new manga page page because I don't want it to suck...but at the same time I don't want a really long interval to pass without an update either.
Soooooo, I think I might just give Ronin Yoshino a break. I feel creativly stagnent right now...maybe I can't draw manga anymore? Maybe I need to do a different style of art? Perhaps I'm just worried too much...as always. lol
What I'm looking for right now, is not story inspiration at all. I'm trying a new aproch to manga writing. So that I don't fall into the pit of chiche' manga-telling, I want to study human emotion & behavior...particularly what man would have felt living in the time of Feudal life. By reading research books is fine & dandy, but it doesn't give me the human-aspect of life of that period. I can't go to a farmer from 3,000 years ago & ask him (man, time travel would rock!), so I'm trying to get the closest feeling to that by renting those old samurai movies. Well, I've been playing Ronin Yoshino by ear this whole time...time to do some experimenting with new mediums!
