I Need Ideas for My Comic Series Commission - Any Suggestions?
Posted on: 12/09/15 09:54PM

Greetings!

I recently commissioned an artist for a complete comics series that will be several pages in length. The theme is about a girl who joins an all-male baseball team. To make her feel welcome, the male players pull naughty pranks on her.

The artist I commissioned is damn good, too. This isn't slack artwork; this is high-quality colored drawings that cost me quite the shiny penny. I won't be revealing who the artist is, because that's probably not in my best interest to do so. However, I will be uploading the complete series to this website after completion. (I will upload them under the "Prank" tag.)

Anyways! I need some clever ideas for practical jokes her teammates can play on her. The pranks can be cute, naughty, playful, dirty, innocent, extreme... anything! All ideas are welcome and much appreciated.

Thanks!

The artist will have to be tagged if uploaded. If the artist is not Japanese and the art is not in a Japanese style it may be subject for deletion.

----------------------

Gatorade or the like over the head after a game well played. Think "wet t-shirt contest". Not sure how stacked she is or if a sport's bra or something more/less appropriate will be revealed.

Not sure if enforcing the "players must wear cups/jock straps" rule will be a funny prank or not.

Noted.

And I like the idea about the Gatorade shower, but I feel that concept is overused? I'm looking for something a little more original. The jockstrap idea is cute.

Thank you very much for the suggestions!

I'm seeing a lot of western art that has nothing to do with Japan neglected and even getting unflagged.

Also, isn't the Post Your Art Here thread useful in these situations?

"May be subject for deletion" doesn't mean it will be deleted.

Lindsey-Fruits-Basket is not uploading her own art, it is a commission from an experienced artist.

But since it's a commission, that kinda makes it his own art, right? And also, he won't say who the artist is, so it just sounded like something someone uploading his own art would say.

Self uploading is often discouraged for quality-control reasons but it is not against the rules. Amateur doodles by western artist will often be deleted unless linked on the artist thread but a professional work is more likely to be accepted.

No.

What would make you think this is the case? He didn't draw it, he paid for it.

If the art doesn't meet the standard, it'll be deleted.

You don't need to start hand wringing over something that hasn't happened yet.

He didn't just pay for it, he's technically the co-author (of a "complete comic series" at that) as he is gathering ideas, as you can see.

So the art being "in a Japanese style/theme" or not doesn't even factor anymore?
