Polly wants you! by reddyheart2004
Do You know webdesign?
Know the ways of e-commerce and digital distribution?
Always wanted to work with comics?
And likes girls with big muscles?

CALL ME!

Because I can't take this anymore! I am comic artist, not a Entrepreneur!
Well, maybe a bit. But I am having a hard time to offer a quality service!
But before anything, I am not contracting anyone, I am not swimming on money, its quite the contrary!

I want a partner to share the cake. If you make a good job, more cash.
 Someone who lives in a place where web business isn't a thing from another world helps a lot.
Someone with ideas would be nice.

Send me a PM or contact me by reddyheart2004@yahoo.com.br

2015 already!

Yeah!

Busy year! But so few things got finished! I guess the main word of this year is FOCUS!
Like previous year, a tiny list of stuff I have to do:

1-Finish Kartoon Warz!
The truth is... I want to reboot it. Make a better story, make a better use of the characters. I don't know, maybe it's the alchohol in my blood. I should think on it better.

2-My portals. Reddypics and Reddyportal are online but they aren't working as I planned. I found another way to process payments but is much more expensive and can turn in a problem in the future. The solution? Higher prices. I need to make a careful action plan before signing any contract.

3-My secret RPG-flash-homage-muscle-girls project is on hold. Forever. I don't know when I will be able to work on it.

4-I didn't make any story about the naughty muscle women doing naughty things on naughty dudes yet. I have a issue half done, it needs more one story.

5-Mass Attraction game. This one is still in the race. And fast. But I am a terrible driver. But the car is still running.


Also, with these setbacks I learned again some facts about me:

1-I don't like coloring. In fact I don't like colors at all. It takes me ages, it tires me. I am black and white person. Coloring a picture is okay, but comic pages... it's madness! But there is some exceptions, I see stories like Kartoon Warz and Hard Cookie demands colors, it's easy to color them because the art isn't realistic. Blue skies doesn't look weird or childish on them.

2-It's better to make less panels by page. Sometimes I try so hard to squeeze so much content in a single page, I would have a easier job just making lots of pages. If a story needs 33 pages or 47, so be it. I am not on Marvel or DC, every chapter doesn't need to have the same number of pages. The Xmas story taught me that, it was so much fun to make it and easy to work on it.

3-I need to take one project by turn. I take much time to plan actions, what I do today or the next days. I just need to work on it and not move to another one until I complete it. But I have some considerations, making animations and coding is a pretty tiresome process. Spending a week only doing that almost killed my brain. So, a comic and a game/animation should be fine. I'll move between them as my mental state changes.

4-Games are drugs. I have to play less. Dammit, I have a huge backlog! Damn you Steam!

That's it! 2015 is having a better start than 2014 so far. I just need to get my shit together and achieve my dream, making monthly comics.
Thank you for reading this text wall and for sticking around!

Happy new year!

2014! Yay!

Alright! Yeah!
2013 wasn't a ultimate super ultra year for me. Lots of bad surprises, the weather messing with my place, Vista and Master Card trying to rip me off, health issues. But it was a hyper year!

I realized I didn't make much stuff, it's a shame!

1-I didn't finished Kartoon Warz!
2-The portal(s) are online, buuuut... it needs work.
3-My secret RPG-flash-homage-muscle-girls project didn't advance much, but it's pretty sweet so far. I coded a lot of stuff.
4-I didn't make much of naughty muscle women doing naughty things on naughty dudes.

And of course, from the mistakes and kicks in the face, we did learn the following:

1-Color comics takes too much time, the post production takes a long time, even splitting the work with the help of super marvelous LuigisJuy.
2-The store's problems, few payment options, problems in the download server, databases... webmaster business is pretty stressful and it takes time and my mood away.
3-Long series its a problem for me, I have in the moment 6 series in the line. Yeah, I could keep drawing one of them until the very end, but this tires me so much... I grow tired of the characters very easily!
4-I am a lazy bastard. PS3 is killing my artistic side.

From these facts, I thought in a FANTASTIC 2014 REDDY'S STIMULUS PACKAGE for a ultimate solution!

1-That's it, black and white comics are back. Gray tones all the way. I want 5 pages weekly!
2-The Hot store will be closed. In it's place I will build a glossary of comics. But how the comics will be sold now? The easier way, send money to my account, and I send the comics to your e-mail. Its not the ideal, I know. But it will be the less expensive and less erratic alternative. Or I can find another site to put the comics to sell, but the prices will be, probally, higher.
3-Since I am pretty anxious person, I don't want to make stories with a fixed time stamp. Let's just the pages flow. I will just set the series and their themes? Power UP for shemale growth stories, Hyper Mass for FMG, Fanatixxx for parodies. I will not finish just an arc of stories just to begin another, I just leave the next part for another edition and You just search for the parts you want in the glossary.
4-I will throw my PS3 through the window. HA!! I am joking. I will just try to not burn my time that much.

It looks radical and agressive, don't it? I don't like changes but I am feeling the changes are much needed. I want to release more comics, make more stories and make it more acessible for everybody and after a lot of studies and experiments, these 4 points must be implemented. The webmaster role, taking care of a virtual store, security supervision, it's no fun job for me. So, I plan to maintain only the action store on reddyportal.com wich is easier to handle, I can't post all my comics there because of their contents(sex, nudity, etc).

I will not implement everything today or even tomorrow. It will be a progressive process but I plan to complete it in the first half of this year. And surely I will try to find better ways of making comics.

I am writing all this stuff because, as you can see, I am no expert on this. I am just trying the best and right way to do it. So, I would like to hear your feedback, sugestions, complaints, opinions, questions, everything.

Hi everybody!
Well, sorry for leting the things here get this slow and boring. I will try to post more stuff from now on.
And good news! My "studio"(a table, a chair and a door to remain other people out) is almost complete! Now I am able to work on my drawings 100% of my free time.

Okay, some of you already knows, I have a lot of projects unfinished, and like last year, I will try to get them done. But as a new resolution, I will stop to set a release date. I realized I never published a single comic in the right date. So, like Bliizzard entertainment says, the thing will be ready when it gets ready. It's for the best, but know this, I always willl my best to release the work sooner as possible.

Now, check the projects wich will take most of time 2013!

1- The last chapters of Kartoon Warz! 3 editions! 20 pages each.
2-A new portal! I already did the a last layout and I am 96.5% happy with it! Now, rests to make the thing!
3- My secret-RPG-flash-homage-muscle-girls project. It's working very well so far, but I will only post anything when I have something pretty to show. Stick figure sucks.
4- More naughty muscle women doing naughty things on naughty dudes. Happy? Stop flooding my e-mail server. I hate life threats mails.

And that's it. There is others series, Wasted Lands, the reboot of G-weapon 07. I will get them done as I complete the others.

See you all soon, I wish a year with lots of girls with lots of muscles for everyone!

Hi people!

My next project it's to update my portal(reddyportal.com). My idea to the site is to centralize all my works there: Galleries, files, projects, info, everything.

Since you guys will be the typical visitor, I want to know what you woud like to see and use in the portal. First I must tell I need to find a way to show all the addition;/updates of my galleries, stores(yes, I will open another one only for action comics, no porn), pictures, etc, everything in a single place.  A big trouble of my works it's a too variated. A person can like this work and simply hate this other. So, in the same time, I need to group them but leave the completely apart from each other. the person can acess the content He wants without passing by other.  I don't know about webdesign and blogging. I would like to hear some advices about this aspect.

Another feature I wish to explore is to make something animated for the portal, maybe a openning short animation. Since the port must to be a "clean" place, no "naughtyness", I must to do something like "WOW, so cool" but safe for all viewers. I am thinking in something like a girl lifting a car, or a super heroine thing. Come on. I am an artist with some flash skills(HA!), the portal can't be a static and plain page, right?

What will have in the portal? We'll have links basicly:

1-Link to my deviant page
2-Link to my naughty gallery (age restriction)
3-Link to the action store
4-Link to the hot store (age restriction)
5-Link to blog
6-Link to the project section
7-Link to download section(age restriction)

And we'll  have polls to know about your wish and taste, what i need to focus, What I need to drop, etc.

We can't forget the portal must be a single page and easy to update and mange.  Easy to be acessed,  runs on firefox and IE, only the flash plugin required.

That's it(I think). So, I need to know what you would like to see. You can send me example, tutorials for some function, sugestions, etc.


Thank you for the help!
