I can't change folders in my gallery for some reason. I have a set of pics just waiting to replace those thumbnails but whenever I try to change them I get a message like "could not change a picture. Please check your internet connection". Can you guys change the pictures of your folders or is the problem only in me?

I would also just like to tell you all to take a look at 's page. Awesome art, great cats and exceptional shading skills

Well, now that's over, I'm sure there has been a lot of drama lately about wolf comics, even by wolf artists themselves. Well, here are my two cents, in other words, my turn to bitch about it. I've decided to explain my opinion in this easy-to-follow and completely sarcastic guide to making wolf comics. I had many doubts weather to post this or not but I think people need to get this. If you ARE doing some of the things listed down there, I suggest you take a good look at your comic and art in general. This isn't aimed at anyone specifically btw.

People you need to know (chances are you know all of them): /KayFedewa: She practically invented wolf comics we know today. Just read her BBA comic if you haven't already and you probably won't consider any wolf comic original anymore.
/ESDA06: Kay's background artist. She provides one of the most amazing backgrounds you can find in webcomics but that's not something people are willing to learn to copy.
/WildSpiritWolf: A target of dozens of copycats because of her recognizable style.


10 EASY STEPS TO CREATING A WOLF COMIC

You'll need: BBA, Paint (or any other art program, doesn't matter), paper (can even be from a notebook), pencil
NOTE: You can ignore the last two if you wish. Who needs those prehistoric tools when you have a computer.
You won't need: talent, originality

STEP 1. – INSPIRATION
Read BBA first, it will show you how a comic must look like. It will surely inspire you to make your own even if hundreds of comics before haven't. Make sure the comic is only about wolves. That's the only thing you're interested in (or just became interested) anyway.
STEP 2. – DISTRIBUTING
Join every possible comic-related club you can. Don't forget to tell everyone you're making a comic over journals, pictures and comments. That way everyone will get to see your masterpiece (if you ever start it). You can also say you plan on publishing and printing it, that will definitively make people go head over heels for it!
STEP 3. – COPYING
You needs to be taught how to draw somehow, right? So go to or and start learning! Everyone will tell you copying is an important part of learning (well, almost everyone) and it's only referencing anyway. Also, make sure to copy BBA because it's the only way of doing comics known to you. If BBA is famous, so will you be! You can try to change a few details if you want so that you're not accused of being a copycat. But if someone does accuse you, just give him a link to 's gallery. She developed her own style from somebody else's so you definitively will too!
STEP 4. – CHARACTERS
No comic without characters! So take a template from a well-known wolf-artist as a strarting point, open Paint and add some wild colors to make your characters interesting and unique! It's all in the markings so the more recognizable they are the more well known and original your characters will be (if it makes your eyes bleed, it's because of all the originality). You can always give them wings, hair and accesorieez (an ear-ring is a must) that don't have anything to do with story or wolves. You can name them after your favorite anime characters, those are all normal names anyway (yes, even Aang and Syaoran!) or you can take two random words and mix them into a name. That's what Kay did and it sounds cool so yours will sound cool too! It would also be best if your character were female because all characters are girls nowadays. Give your characters a kickass personallity mixed with emo and horrible past and you're done!
STEP 5. – STORY
Have a random war story, give your wolves elemental superpowers or some other cliche like that. The story is a completely irrelevant part of the comic, it's all good if you know how to draw.
STEP 6. - FILLING YOUR GALLERY WITH CHARACTER-SHEETS
One must meet the characters of every comic because obviously that's something you can't do in the comic itself. It's enough to simply draw your character and put a color chart next to it. You don't even need to know what character-sheets are for but if Kay has them so must you!
STEP 7. - FRONT-PAGE
Try hard over this so everyone knows how great and awesome your comic will look. You don't need to know anything about composition or design, it just needs to look cool and shiny.
STEP 8. - FIRST PAGE
Now your awesome comic is ready for all the readers to read! Just wait 'till it gets popular!
Forget about storyboarding and planning ahead. You can improvise, right? So page 1 needs a long monologue in which at least 10 pages worth of illustrated material will be shoved into. It must explain everything that could surprise the reader, even things that are perfectly fitting for illustrating. Try hard with your backgrounds to get them as close to 's work as possible, despite never learning how to draw them (ah, well, that wasn't in the „copying“ step. Too hard and realistic, BLJEH!). But if you're too lazy for it, don't worry. Your comic will look grand just as well without them. Add transparent bubbles, black borders, eye close-up panels and text that's not all capital letters like most real comics are.
STEP 9. – UPDATING
Update slowly. A page per month or two would be ideal. It will also give out the impression you're working hard on your comic and keep people on the edge of their seats (yes, even for months!). After 3-5 pages move onto step 10.
STEP 10.-EPIC FAIL
Got bored of working on the comic? Can't put up with all the work your intended comic quality requires (if there is any quality to speak of)? No more comic material? Not willing to spend anymore time working on it?
Well then, put it on a secret hiatus and never get back to it. Nobody was reading it anyway.

CONGRATULATIONS!
Your comic has just ended the same way as 99% of all the wolf comics! We hope this short guide proved to be helpful!
