Hey man. I've been around here ever sense your How to get featured on webtoon video.
I finally got out of my depression and I'm gonna start my own series.
I just wanted to thank you. You helped me keep being motivated and making storyboards even if I couldn't bring myself to actually draw anything.
I know that it's gonna take a long time untill I actually can publish my stuff but at least I took the first step.

I sure hope Walter and Walter can work it out. They seemed so good for each other.

This was really helpful I know my stories I used to write back then was so robotic. You literally are speaking my mind!👏👏

[alexhinemisha]

Thanks, I really needed this because everytime I write dialog it always sounds stiff and boring. You actually got me here 8:46 plus english is not my native language so it's really hard for me to not make direct descriptions like instead of saying "You think I'm dumb?" it's better to say "You think I was born yesterday?" or "My birthday is near." to "My birthday is just around the corner." something like that pls don't judge me haha

I just don’t want to write everything (and proof read and whatnot) and then not be able to draw what I want. Like having issues with anatomy or mood. But yeah! I agree that some people can write stiffly and because my comic’s dialogues are pretty short, I wouldn’t say it’s too bad? Especially when it comes to the time period, ages, etc. but these are very helpful tips! Thanks again, Walter.

[thfluff]

I talk to myself all the time repeating the way a character would say a phrase or what expression they use. Its helpful

[gura-san]

Yes! Walter's here!! Your videos are REALLY Awsome! And your tips are SUPER helpful! But the thing is, English is not my first language, so it maybe difficult for me and for some other people like me to speak it "out loud" when writing thanks again!

[alexandrazapatamultimedia]

Hey Walter! Just wanna say thank you for making your videos so fun, engaging, and easy to grasp ☺ making comics has definitely been less daunting since I started watching your videos

[kyanshi]

I can't believe your actually recommending

HOW HAVE I BEEN DOING THIS RIGHT THE WHOLE TIME?!?!?!

[franimationcentral]

You know dude, watching these videos really does make doing a webcomic seem less overwhelming. :)

[amiamarie]

I think you need to go into acting, where you play all the characters. That scene was *chef’s kiss*

[onishireo]

I love your videos! Day by day they inspire me to improve and sharpen these skills. Thanks for the upload!

[warwolflover]

I would love a video on writing and researching characters of a different culture to understand how to avoid stereotypes and try to show more the charm of the different culture😯💕
