1. Ignoring Visual Consistency
The Mistake: The main character changes hairstyles or clothes in every panel. The Fix: Use a consistent "seed" and a robust character description prompt. create a character sheet and refer to it constnatly.
2. Overcrowded Panels
The Mistake: Trying to fit an entire conversation and three actions into one small panel. The Fix: Decompress your story. Give big moments their own page or large panel. "One thought, one panel."
3. "Talking Heads" Syndrome
The Mistake: Page after page of close-ups of characters talking. The Fix: Vary your camera angles. Use wide shots, over-the-shoulder shots, and inserts of objects to keep the visual rhythm interesting.
4. Neglecting Hands and Limbs
The Mistake: Publishing panels where characters have 6 fingers or backward arms. The Fix: Use "negative prompts" (e.g., 'bad anatomy', 'extra digits'). If a hand looks bad, crop the panel or use an object to obscure it. Or use ComicsAI's in-painting tool to fix just that area.
5. Giving Up Too Soon
The Mistake: Expecting the AI to read your mind on the first try. The Fix: AI is a tool that rewards iteration. Re-roll, tweak your prompt keyword by keyword, and treat it like a collaboration.
