Hey Bela!
First of all I want to say you are one of the best out there doing this kind of work. But I want to give some constructive critisism even with my bad grammar and english.
The Original Selfie is one of my favorite comics by you because of the details and how much work you must have done with it. The details are pure epic and the curves are realistic and sexy. In the original Selfie you really see how the ages shift from kid to teenager to fully grown up(without oversized pumped up silicone breasts and tiny Disney Princess waists) and that makes an AP comic really sensual from my point of view. I really like the oversized curves aswell but not in every comic you make these days. It seems like you want to or are forced to stress out alot of comics to satisfy us and all of us at Patreon so the work gets less quality and care even that they are really well done considering this fetish.
Now in Selfie 2. (I don’t want to spoil anything and I want to tell everyone that its a worth buy. Atleast I hope I do not spoil anything so just in case don’t read below thispart if you haven’t bought the comic yet)..
I loved Selfie 2 except two later pictures with the one of the regressed adults. But I really really hoped this one also was going to be like in the same quality as Selfie 1. The siblings should not have been oversized fully grown adults. They should have been late or early teenagers and she should have combined their years into herself to be more than they ever was(without all this oversized unrealism). It should have also contained more teasing between them how she takes over with her new ages and curves. It felt like stress over the pages. I didn’t enjoy going throught the pages as much as I really wanted to. It felt like pop 1, pop 2, pop 3 finished. I liked how you maked my favorite situation with one of them then it really was like hitting a cold wall. Sorry. BAAAM! Right in my face everything just died.
Anyhow a worth buy and I don’t regret I bought it and I will continue to buy your comics in hope you will improve like the younger Bela in Selfie 1!
I have a dream scenario for Selfie 3 I will probably mail it to you cause I don’t want to spoil more.
Thanks and keep going!
Answer:
Hey monnsn!
First of all, thank you for the constructive comment! Finally! Someone who dare to sprare some time to write such a critisism.
I’m really happy when some of you write me some feedbackt, it helps me a lot how to plan the upcoming and future works. I know lot’s of people have trouble to share their thoughts in English, but as you can see on many bases, I have my difficulties in the language myself!
Now to reflect to your “observations”: You touched one of the basic issue here, and that is the amount of the content. It is hard to keep up with all the people’s requests, comments, ideas both here and on Patreon. Believe me when I say, I try to give the best as possible, but yes I can’t serve everyone’s needs! And yes it can be look like, that my style has changes since I started this whole journey with the comics!
In same way, I changed indeed, but who wouldn’t? It’s been four years now, what started as a hobby become a work and I look at it a little bit different. Not because I do this for living, but as the word changes, I can say as an artist I change myself. If I would do the same all the time I would just burn out in the comics, and I was a little bit near to that in the past but than again I stood up. Nothing dramatic, simple an artist needs to renew sometime to keep up his passion about what he is doing. In my case bimbofication was one of these “add-on” what helped me to think ahead.
I was coming from TG in the start, and I’m in the AR/AP scene for 4 years now. My view of the whole scene changed a little bit what could be seen in the way I present the characters in the comics.
When I started to create selfie, I “read” the first part again and again to see how to make something what is close to the original but can give something new to it. The IRAY is a big help to show more attractive characters. They have too big boobs or asses? Well, that’s something I add to it because I like it.
I think I try to give a detailed way of shown the transformation of how they changed, As how they look it’s a different story as always.
Lot’s of you would like to see how different body parts change from time to time as the regress/progress takes place but I reflected to this comment on my Patreon page, I have to decide to give more show of the actual change itself or took hours to show off body parts what could easily lead to get bored with the whole comic and leave it in the dark space of my HDD as it happend before. So I always had to take a few viewpoint when I make a comic and two of them is always this: “Will I enjoy it to create it?” “How much time will it take from me?”
If I don’t like the thing, I make that it’s a dead end and you will see it in the final product.
If it take too much time to create, who will update the site? Who will update my Patreon channel? I can’t do that with all the people who decided to support me, I would feel guilty if I could’t give them what they wish to see!
One more thing, as a side note. I think I spend some quality time in “The Bloom Fairy” what was started from 1 single line… I showed how different body parts change and I posted it with a big smile in Patreon, and not even a single comment arrived to it… none. That is something what could kill something inside me, but when I see how few people reacted to it here on AgeArts, it shows there is more interest to it. Not much what also “breaks my heart especially if I see there is more than 4k user here…
I know this is a little bit off topic from what you asked but hey, at least I could write it down.
Anyway, thank you for you comment it moved me, and I’m happy to aswer to you and I hope you will see my point in this whole journey!
“That young bela is still here, he never left but he grow up and changed… like all of us as we grow with the world… it is natural…”
