No I said once I get the copyrighted I will!

You probably shouldn't have made the thread until you had content.

I too am working on comics but I'm not going to give out information even after I have my Copyrights filed. And the copyright exists upon the initial creation of the intelectual property. Registering them simply makes it easier to prove its yours by haveing a fedral record of it.

Umm.. give out too much information and we'll have no incentive to buy your comics.

I'm aware. That's why I never plained on giving away to much information first off. I'm only giving a brief summary of my characters.
Like a summary on the back of a book.

All right. I'll give you some advice on how to bring in a certain demographic. Introduce in a certain character archetype, that of a young girl who's a real sweetheart. Not sure if you watch anime but I know of certain references for character study for the archetype.

Thanks for the advice.May I have these references?

Aren't you the guy who was trolling me a while ago?

I'm sure there are others. but something to look for to help you with patterning characters is to find these archetypes.

You make a character that fits the archetype you're more likely to draw in the demographic that the archetype appeals to.

Study those characters. They make up an archetype. They appeal to a certain demographic.

The other posibility is that people will ignore you because they think the character is unorginal.

hmmmmmmm? decisions, decisions!

archetype
One entry found for archetype.

Main Entry: ar·che·type
Pronunciation: 'är-ki-"tIp
Function: noun
Etymology: Latin archetypum, from Greek archetypon, from neuter of archetypos archetypal, from archein + typos type
1 : the original pattern or model of which all things of the same type are representations or copies : PROTOTYPE; also : a perfect example
2 : IDEA 1a
3 : an inherited idea or mode of thought in the psychology of C. G. Jung that is derived from the experience of the race and is present in the unconscious of the individual
- ar·che·typ·al /"är-ki-'tI-p&l/ also ar·che·typ·i·cal /-'ti-pi-k&l/ adjective
- ar·che·typ·al·ly /-p&-lE/ also ar·che·typ·i·cal·ly /-'ti-pi-k(&-)lE/ adverb

You'll find that anycharacter can be fitted into being a narchetype or fitting the model of a given archetype. There are no original ideas out there anymore. And the sooner you realize this the sooner you can accept that fact and not get so hung up on the false idea that there are still original ideas to be had. You'll be alot happier in the long run with less of a semblence of having a stick up your ass, as it were. Not saying you do. Just that those people do.
