Hey~
This is my first topic, lol, so if you haven't seen me around replying to other topics, nice to meet you.
Anyway...
I recently decided I want to focus more on my writing rather than turning my stories into comics since I'm better overall at writing than I am at drawing. (I can do good illustrations, but more provocative imagery is still a bit hard for me)
Well, what I was wondering is, what's a good way to go about illustrating combat through text? I mean, how can you illustrate fast paced, intense combat without it seeming gimmicky...?
I understand that short, straightforward sentences and few punctuations help promote a sense of speed... but beyond that...
Just looking for some advice, maybe some examples if you have anything specific?
Thanks a bunch.
