Matt's BE Thread

*cheers sleepily in da morning* Victory...everyone. Cute small comic.

Working on a BE strip, but this one's special. Nipples are visible, though debating if I should censor it (as opposed to pasties, so there would be character reactions to actual nudity). I know the general response will be "show them" considering where I am, but still curious on peoples' thoughts.

As you said, you already know full well what the reaction will end up being. So in light of that, I will be ambiguous about it: It's your call more than anyone else's; as my high school art teachers always told us, "You're the artist, you decide."

My suggestion, is to make a normal and a censored version. You can compare the feedback that they will get that way...at least, to an extent.

Censor it with humor, as per usual?

You should probably stop sticking around here, if you're actually doing something you're not known for. :P

Whatever feels right and whatever you are comfortable with.

This is what I think.

You know, like the cow pasties? >_>

I say don't show them.

Since you are having the nudity to show character reactions, you could hide them by either having her facing in a different direction or use other methods of censoring (like flying buttons or strategically placed hair, etc). In the end though it is your call on how you want to do it. Nudity is fine, but people will enjoy either version to be honest.

Annnnnnnnnd, why's that?

Also, the comic is done. I'll most likely post the uncensored version, but have a censored version in the description since I'll be marking it as "Mature (Strict)". The reason I'm doing the uncensored version is because the theme of the comic itself is about the first time Mattie went Meushi, and how she didn't have pasties because she wasn't expecting it. The title is "First time", which goes both ways.

Here, have a preview.
