i need.inspiration?

Hi, I am practicing one of my manga comics for when I get older. Every time i start off it seems like everything is going great and the pictures look good. But, when it comes about to the 6th panel I start to loose the feeling, my characters start to get a little awkward, and no matter how many times I try I can't go on.

How long do you want the comics to be? Perhaps closing off/ending the comics right now with the number of panels that you already have would be the way to complete a comic as you practice this art. Perhaps you could make the scripts shoter in order to accomodate what you have ideas for right now as far as the artwork?

Depending on the script of your comic, it would be okay to repeat some images that you already have drawn in order to complete the story.

So keep them short. Gotcha. But what happens if later I want to go beyond that point?

If you really love what you do, then the inspiration will come. Sometimes it might take a number of hours or even days for the ideas to come. What helps me to come up with scripts and visuals for things is to take a walk and practice concentrating on what I am doing. By taking a walk, I am giving my brain a break and also maybe taking in some new inspiration at the same time because I am not overly dwelling on it. If a person concentrates too hard on being creative, it can make you stumped a lot of the times. Recommendation: take a breather now and then and don't try to force the inspiration. It will come in time.
