Just finished binge reading all through Cassopeia Quinn and it was great. Art is fantastic, setting is interesting, characters are charming, and waifus a plenty.

Let's discuss this comic. Mainly, why doesn't /co/ talk about it more often?
>>
I'm not a fan of Gunwild's style of writing. It's a humour comic but its not quite funny enough to ever make me laugh.
>>
>>78605796
is this smut
>>
>>78606369
I hope it is.

>>78605796
Is it behind a paywall/patreon? If so, that would be why.

>>78606606
It isn't either of these what I've seen.

Stop trying to hawk your shit Gunwild and/or Psuede.

Neither. It's fanservice heavy and can be read for free: http://www.cassiopeiaquinn.com/index.php?id=1

Not a fan personally.
>>
>>78605796

They're not and your comic is aggressively mediocre. It must take some special kind of talent to make a supposedly cheescake webcomic so uninteresting.
>>
>>78605796
>Mainly, why doesn't /co/ talk about it more often?
Didn't the creators of this comic hang out on /co when they were planning it? I seem to remember them flaunting how their aim was to make the comic something people on 4chan would gravitate to. I guess they failed pretty hard.

Gunwild gave us Tannah & Vard which is some of the best /ss/ I've read.

Psudonym used to live on the Drawthread and a few other threads. Psudo also gave me my favorite alt Raven costume.

No idea what their aim was for Cassiopeia Quinn because I haven't read it yet.

To answer the OP's question.

Mainly because it's not furry, which is the only sure thing that you'll see go viral anymore.

And also? Look at this bag of dicks here:
>>78606672
If it's not a popular comic already, it's not going to get popular here without every single thread being accused of this shit. And no one wants to deal with it when they're in the mood to spread things that bring them joy.

People like him absolutely mutilate the creative spectrum. There's nothing to aspire to if you're hustling an original creation.

Tall poppy syndrome. Crab barrel syndrome. Law of Jante. Call it whatever. If something is new, by someone familiar and attainable, it's not allowed to flourish.

And I say all this without having read Cass Quinn.

Because it's a comic drawn by one of our local drawfags, aka attentionwhores. We don't want to deal with their hugbox.

Is anyone else tired of hearing the word hugbox used to describe fucking anything that helps a person ever?

>>78608585
I actually find that Psu's art has gotten a lot less imaginative since they got "better." They used to have that scratchy "gotta get this down!" style that a lot of Eurocomics have, but now that they draw with more technical skill they've put that passion and imagination on the backburner, and that's the worst thing that can happen to any artist.

>Yet Gunwild fails to do anything cool with it
This is actually showing which of the two is the weaker link. Gunwild seems to be really bad at maintaining any sense of tone. In one panel he'll draw attention to a delicate and complex political situation in the midst of an intergalactic war...Then suddenly there's a slapstick or quirky scene that dissolves all of that.

>Sadly its the same character copy pasted on everyone
I don't think they're all the same character, it's that they all seem to be reduced down so much that it's hard to actually tell what a certain character is meant to be, and because of that issue with tone they all become the same quirky character on a dime.
>>
>>78605796
That comic is mediocre as fuck. The MC is especially awful.

Gee.

Is it any wonder why so many other people have turned their backs on 4chan once they've make it big.

So, how is it that a highly trained military commander can't catch one bimbo who speaks like an 8 year old?

And no matter how much you try, combining Zenigata and Adama in to one character will not work. Their tones are far too different to be able to play together.
>>
>>78610898
>how is it that a highly trained military commander can't catch one bimbo who speaks like an 8 year old?
That's the joke. Get it? No matter how inept the bimbo seems she gets by on mary sue status powered by her quirkiness. Fun right?
>>
>>78610993
Speaking of that, how can she just bounce around behaving in such a manner, when it's been established that an intergalactic war is raging, with a barely kept peace in a narrow window of space dangling from a thread?

Isn't this like someone from Switzerland thinking 1942 would be a great year to go on a road trip around Europe?

>>78610763

Not really. Shit's at the level they intent it to be. Gunwild, ever the attention seeker, has even mentioned that he's surprised no one's commented on the sexiness. Since there been attempts to "rile" people up, by amping it.

>Gunwild, ever the attention seeker, has even mentioned that he's surprised no one's commented on the sexiness. Since there been attempts to "rile" people up, by amping it.

The sexiness is incredibly tame and mostly limited to Quinn showing off. If there were involuntary fanservice like the police girl getting her clothes torn off or sexual situations there would probably be riled tumblrites. I haven't read this comic in months so I freely admit I may not know what I'm talking about.

Then dont expect anyone to read the comic.

It tries to shoe horn in politics then goes lol quirky

It tries to be an action comic without action and with bland pastel colors instead of bright and sharp colors.

it tries to be a titillating comic but then doenst deliver on the titillation.
>>
>>78611455
It's like you haven't read the thread, and you're now stating the obvious. This is not a good comic, baby.
>>
>>78605796
Honestly, I just came for the spacesuit designs. I could probably get more invested 'cause Pseude's art is my cup of tea but I have this thing about lacking commitment to web serials lately.
>>
>>78611110

I think they only started chasing her after the second chapter, at which point she's stolen two ships from them, i can't remember if the first was special outside of being theirs, but the second one was a medical ship, there's a chance that more people than maddy wants to see her behind bars. It also seems like they don't want to put her in any overt danger with her being a noblewoman, in which case putting her on cass is a good balance between priority and danger.
>>
>>78611326
As is the case with most covers.
>>
Psu's art is great, there's definitely no contesting that. The writing is really the only thing holding it back from being a fantastic comic. The characters are nice from a conceptual standpoint but no one really stands out because they're all so simplistic.

It doesn't help that they update at a snail's pace and can't even seem to focus on the fucking stories they want to tell. It seems like this racing chapter was just getting started before they started tossing in one-shots about Christmas space porn and loli Quinn. Hell, I'm not a fan of their one-shots in general. Instead of having Quinn tell the audience directly why she doesn't like pants, why can't they organically bring that up in the actual story? And god, fuck off with the sci-fi references, we don't need to be constantly reminded of how redundant and derivative you are.

I'm surprised to hear that they were advertising that this was a cheesecake comic, because that's news to me. Asides from two chapter covers and a couple ass shots, it's not like they've gone out of the way to be sexy. It doesn't need to be Menage a 3, but even Blaster Nation is a more titillating comic than a comic about a skimpy space thief.
>>
>>78612601

I've noticed that the oneshots usually go up around holidays, which I don't really blame Psu/GW for. Guest comics popping up right in the middle of a chapter rather than between kind of irks me though.
>>
>>78613072
The only thing good about that Christmas comic was the brown shortstack, though. With or without the final panel's dialogue, the joke...

Actually, I still don't know what the joke is supposed to be. "Lol, porn exists"?
>>
>>78610839

I like the art style of that artist, so I'll give that comic a go.

But honestly I feel that it'll be one of those things where I'm only reading it for the fanservice.

the artist should do the same thing as the blaster nation authors did; a porn spinoff. That way they can keep their webcomic characters clean but do porn in the same style and everyone will be happy.
>>
>>78622193
It's changed a lot from 2007 when I used to be really active. I read more and post far, far less than I did when I was an actual, factual regular... but y'know, when I started getting banned for posting smutty fanfic, which is what I was here to do in the first place, I realized it wasn't home anymore. It gave me good friends and collaborators, and I hope it can continue to do that for other people.

Still a good place to discuss stuff when you watch a cartoon or read a comic, though. Well, sometimes. Occasionally. If you're lucky.

>>78622247
The excuse for how her clothes stay on is different, but Psu's familiar with Birdy.
>>

You know ever since we had the 'How's Your Webcomic' general I've noticed a lot more bitching against webcomics in their threads.

>>78622301
Oh, and to be clear: I'm not suggesting porn because I want rule 34 that much (heck I haven't even read the comic).

I'm suggesting going the porn route because god tier art will only get you so far in a webcomic.

You also need A GOOD WRITER.

If you do so much fanservice and have such good art, but your writing is crap, then you might as well make the most of what you are better at.

It's fine, 4chan's just under different management and does things differently. Nothing to complain about.

Anyway I just stopped in for once to say that I do follow the (admittedly rare, because /co/ works hard to avoid giving its natives cults of personality) criticisms of Cassiopeia Quinn.

But if you're a creator visiting 4chan, it's really here to let you laugh at yourself. Unless an anon says something really insightful and cites specific examples, you kind of have to shrug it off.

Really the only surefire way for a writer to improve is the same way that an artist improves. Just keep writing and playing with concepts. Not everything has to be made public. But keep writing.

Does psu do porn?

I'd even pay for it

Psu's done commissions. I'm sure you can work something out.

Wanted to see if there's a well known restriction

I'll have to think of a decent subject. I'm thinking true Midna in some fashion

Nobody hates this comic, they're just disappointed. It could be something really special if they just tried a little harder in the writing department, and we hate to see Psu's incredible art and some really solid art squandered on something like this

Cassiopeia Quinn is like Moonbeam City if every single comic page was that first episode.

Yeah there are definitely some gems in this comic. They just need to be explored more, with less focus on quirky memes.

>What is the opportunity cost for reading a webcomic? Load an RSS reader and spend 20 secs twice a week
Why exactly should I waste even 20 seconds reading something I don't enjoy? I gave the comic a try and found the writing to be unenjoyable and the art is honestly not anywhere great enough to keep me coming back just for it. simple as that.

Yeah all I want is depth.

Depth.

I want to stop and smell the roses of the concepts I find interesting. And not just get hurried to the next shiny product.
