    • @walterostlie
      @walterostlie  3 года назад

      I'll try to do one soonish. However, just think about what merchandise you're going to make and figure what the size is. As long as your inches are the same or more, you'll be okay. Use at least 300dpi. Some people will say 600dpi or more, but I don't think it makes a big difference. The easiest thing to do is talk to the company that is going to make your physical product, they can give you templates for free.

  • @sei_pika
    @sei_pika 3 года назад +1

    Thanks so much for the video and the free template! Question though, would it be alright to use different images for the square thumbnail and the vertical thumbnail? Like say, since the square one would look best with 1-2 characters only, can the vertical one be utilized for more than 2? Since it's slightly longer and all so there's more space.

    • @walterostlie
      @walterostlie  3 года назад +1

      It is slightly longer, but the safe zone is still kinda square. All the vertical space is in the danger zone. You could use a different image for sure and most likely that image would be displayed in a larger format to the reader, most likely after they've clicked into the comic's main page, so it could be more detailed for that reason.

    Hi Walter? I've been reading Ghost bats for a while and I wanna tell you that I love it. Your art and story is inspiration to me. Also I have something to ask. There's plenty of creators who didn't come from canvas and it made me wonder, how do people contact webtoon to launch their comics? Is it possible to contact them by their Instagram? What standarts do webtoon require from people about their stories and art?

    • @walterostlie
      @walterostlie  3 года назад

      Thank you! You can't reach out to them directly or at least there isn't a systm currently in place.. The editors will usually find you based on work you've already created and put out into the world. Example an editor bought my previous graphic novels at a comic convention. I know other's who made Webtoon Canvas comics and were able to pitch new ideas to Webtoon. You can also wait for them to run a contest and enter. Seems like this happens every few years. Maybe we'll get another in 2022 or 2023. You can try to be a detective and track down editors via twitter and linked in, but I don't know how much they will appreciate that and they may just ignore it anyways.

    Hi! The video was really useful but still I have a question : when you click on your series and you go to the page of your comic, there is the circle that you upload your thumbnail in it. Thought I was checking other artists and they have a big huge horizontal thumbnail as well. How I can upload that one? I've been searching the internet for two days and still no luck. tnx! ^^

      The short answer is yes, HOWEVER, there is a tick you must check in order for your series to be mature in any sense.

    • @walterostlie
      @walterostlie  3 года назад +3

      the 4th episode is pretty deep into your story before "the thing" happens. It's not against the law, but those first 3 episodes better be engaging. Write a list of the things that happen in episodes 1-3 and the reason why you reader needs to read it. If you can't come up with a good answer, start editing.

      Thanks for the tip but I think I just draw the character who looks the coolest, the readers will then probably figure out, in the story that everyone is the main character. Because the thumbnail is more important than the story itself you know. That's why a cool or pretty-looking character should be on the thumbnail.
      I don't have a design for the person who dies first yet but if I manage to make them look cool, then they will probably land on the thumbnail haha.
