Need opinions on my new art style

Post by Archamedes »

Okay, I have adopted a whole new art style for my comics. Just now I competed part 5 of my 'Walker' series and applied the new style to it.

Please check it out & tell me what you think I just need general feedback on what you think.

It doesn't matter if you are not up to date on the story, but if you missed the previous issues and are interested to see how it started then here is the page containing all comics in this series

I really liked it,some how its more like a proper comic style more brighter ,crisper clearer,but im no expert in these things but i do really like walker & cant wait for the next one & i enjoyed it which is the main thing ,you should try & get them printed as comics or a graphic novel that can sit proudly among the walking dead ones & i cant wait to read the next iss. :D

excellent, thank you for your honesty. I trust you have read the previous issues and can compare the original style to the new one. I was actually worried that changing halfway could be damaging especially when people are used to a certain thing. I was also worried that the new style wouldn't work, but I think I will stick with it.

It reminds me of Bankys' [the grafitti artist]s' style.

On average it usually takes a month to do, but if I get caught up on other projects or freelance work It goes on hold. In fact there was a years break between issue 3-4 because one project I did took that long to finish. I try to keep them as up to date as possible

I've only recently stumbled across this thread and really enjoyed the story. What happened to #7??

I think I preferred the original artwork but can't seem to download the original issues any more as I wanted to show the better half who's a Walking Dead fan.

on another thread I see that the author stopped this story to concentrate on another sadly. I was quite enjoying it!

Thanks for that Bri, I'll read that tonight. I don't suppose you have a link to #1 do you as I can't seem to find it any more? I want to show my Mrs as I think she'll like it.
