KeymasterThat’s really good. I like the coloring and shading a lot, but I think you should work on line thickness and consistency. You should try to make your line work just as deliberate and expressive as your colors. As it is you’re relying on the shading as the sole means of conveying a sense of volume and fullness to the viewer, but neglecting line work that can emphasize the same characteristics.
For a really good example, probably the best line-work in newspaper comics ever was Li’l Abner during the period of Frank Frazetta’s ghosting for Al Capp – mid-50s through the early 60s. Capp had always used line-work very effectively, and when Frazetta took on the job ghosting for him, he sort of out-Capp’ed Capp. Frazetta was admired and hated as a young man for his ability to mimick other artists’ styles and strengths, and then improve on them. Now he’s old and pretty much worshipped for the the output of his career. Here’s a gallery of his work: http://www.wadhome.org/frazetta/comics0004.html

ParticipantInteresting work. I’d like to know how you did it. The technique looks like it might have been directly drawn on the computer.

ParticipantIs that interesting good, or interesting bad? Haha. I just draw it in photo shop, the whole thing. I use a mouse and the airbrush tool mostly. I’m sure that is why my lines are irregular. Also because I dont take the time to go back in and straiten it all out. I guess that if I drew it on paper, inked it, scanned it in, then colored it everything would be straiter, but that takes too long. Thanks

you draw it with the mouse, that seems impossible to me.
