What to do when I banned TV? Webtoons!!!

Now that I have limited my TV to only when I am on my stationary bike, on days like today when I do not feel like reading anything serious, I have found webtoons to be a nice thing to get into, and be engulfed in good art and great stories.

Fine, you may say this is mainly for kids but I must say some of the art is so good that I am beginning to wish I could draw like that. 

The plots and stories are quite riveting as well. Not too complicated. But interesting enough to keep you reading. 

There are several platforms out there for blooming webtoonists to venture into. From what I have read, they are open for anyone to publish their work freely and free of charge. 

When you have gained your ground and attracted a good number of fans, you can be invited to be their feature artist and earn a monthly fee of about $2000 and then more from contributions from readers and fans. 

And even if you do not become a feature artist and get paid monthly, you may still receive funds from your fans through Patreon.

Alas, I couldn't even draw a straight line or a decent looking circle.

Here are a few styles of webcomics in webtoons.com. Which would you pick?

I prefer the ones closer to reality and if I were to pick just one, it would be this:

How about you?

116 apps and counting

I was searching for an app in my phone when my colleague commented, "wow, you've got so many apps!" 

I know I like to look for apps when I want to get something done using my phone but I thought it's a norm that phone are filled with lots and lots of different apps. There are so much you can do with them!

I download a lot of them but since my Razer Phone 2 only has 64G memory, I try to cut down on the apps in my phone and remove those I seldom use. 

Right now I have 116 apps installed.

Too many? Too few? Or a norm? 

How many do you have?

Oh yes, a shout-out to Quimchee, the webtoonist of I Love Yoo, from where I took my phone wallpaper from as you see in my screenshot above. I love her work!
