Hello everybody!

Eudaemon here.

I’ve finally decided to officially upload my art to the internet! So I’m calling out to everyone for advice and tips for how I should manage stuff with managing myself creatively on the internet, now and in the future. Some things I’d love some help with is:

1) How do I prevent my work being stolen?

2) Tips for monetising my work in the future?

3) Tips for illustrating comics and publishing them?

4) Idea generation advice?

5) What art should and shouldn’t be published? (E.g. Outside of work for comics to express myself creatively I’m aiming to stay SFW)

For some context I’ve done art for about a year and a half now. I’m pretty good for a teenage male / young adult male but I still am improving. For example, as of recently, only now am I starting to use my fine tips markers again and my alcohol markers. I do my work in my sketchbook and I take a lot of inspiration from Manga, but I’d say Dragon Ball is my main inspiration. I’d love to do the cell shading / alcohol marker art you see on Manga covers for my comics. My writing style is heavily inspired by Manga story formatting such as Dragon Ball Z and Chainsaw Man, but my stories are also inspired by the work of Goichi Suda, Hideo Kojima, Tatsuki Fujimoto, Akita Toriyama and their mature, insane yet complex and beautiful storylines. I love drawing contemporary, super powered and monster outs characters. I hope this gives you some context for my work. I have some of my older art compiled on my profile, but it’s not meant to be particularly good.

Thanks,

Eudaemon
