COMICS or Visual NOVELS for me?

I would like to call on you all for a strange question bothering me.
It's been a few years since I started creating pictures, and I'm finally finding the courage to show my work and make it a genuine activity.
But once again, I lack the courage to go to the next step. Let me explain. As you will undoubtedly notice in this message, my English is not exactly perfect, and that's maybe what scares me the most. Still, I hesitate between doing comics (two examples in this message) or visual novels. I don't know what would work better or what lends itself better to my work.
So (sorry for being long), my question is: Do you like this format for my type of images, or would a visual novel be better?
Knowing that developing in python (renpy) is not an obstacle for me.

Thank you very much for reading, and if you feel like it, you can always give your opinion.

tbh i don't eat 3dcg well, especially on 'vn games'
but if it's in comic and if the panel placement is good, i'll definitely bite

the 1st page is the example
the first inset panel shouldn't block the man face
since the girl is actually looking at him
and to emphasis the double bj scene
other than that, it's actually your usual proper comic page

but once again whatever your passion should weigh more on your decision forward
and the support ofc :Kappa: good luck, birdie

You should go with whatever feels better to you. Maybe you even want to switch it up from time to time. First and foremost, you need to be motivated and happy with the result of your work.

That being said, because you asked: I personally prefer VN over comics. That is often because the text boxes take up a lot of space and focus in comparison to the visuals, which happens in your examples as well.

And come on, your English is obviously very good :D That should be the least of your concerns, really.

What also annoys me in comics is, as you say, the place that the text takes, and as I like my images, I necessarily hate that they are spoiled by text. In any case, thank you for your answer.

Do what you have the most fun with, there will be people out there that enjoy your work and those that don't. Your english is the least of your worries, people will complain about anything and everything, from the dick being to big to the story having too many or too little sex scenes. Enjoy the encouragement of those who like your work, ignore the assholes and take advice from constructive criticism "if" it fits your vision for your work.

Good luck those previews looked really good.
