Description
I'm an idiot. I left out Dan's eyebrows and forgot to color in half of Ed's right jacket sleeve.
Thank goodness for confusing linework.I kinda like how this turned out. The simple coloring seems to work (plus is saves me a ton of time *wink*). What do you guys think?
P.S. For those of you who asked, yes Mariuss is in this story, and yes, he is a bad guy. I'm going to do one of these with my line-up of villains next, and then with some of the more morally ambiguous characters. bwahahaha

Very cool. Looks like one of those wall scroll things that you can buy.
Love the minimal colours, as always. And the pinkish-red of the background really makes the four stand out.

Hmm... How would you feel if I made this into a bookmark for myself? I've never actually used bookmarks (I don't think they're very reliable), but I think this would.. well, it'd fit. And I'd like it.

This looks wonderful. I love the pink flare, it gives the black ink a more pop-out appeal.

It's like what people always keep telling me (apparently): Keep it simple, stupid.
That's why this works. Flat color = very graphical feel = good for comic = me likey.

I love the way you do your characters. Your style is cool and original. Colour helps to give expression to the drawing. Good done!

That pinkish-red monochrome effect goes well the sharp black.

homaigawd. Everytime you update I squeal in glee. Yes. I am unashamed to say I am a retarded fangirl. D:< Emile and Dan's expressions are just superb tho, I love it. Yeah, the simple coloring seems to work pretty well, especially with the gray-hued kinda colors you choose. : o

I really like the simple colors. It contrasts nicely with the complex lineart.
Did I just sound like a dork, or what?

I like it! What'd I'd also do is use the white more than in just their eyes to break apart so to speak the chars from one another. Like I'd color Ed's shirt white to (and maybe his face) so there's a break between him and Dan. There's already that going on between Paolo and Emile. Very slick though

I really like the red, the monochrome color schemes work really well for setting the mood. ^_^
Also, Paolo looks hot in this.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol, he has the IQ of an underwear model, so it's his only saving grace besides that wonderful personality of his.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm sure he'd get a lot more girls with his good looks as long as he doesn't open his mouth (hey, it works for the underwear models 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha, I always thought he was kind of awkwardly angular. I never intended to make him even remotely appealing (eh...maybe oddly endearing), but I guess it's a good thing. lol
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Maybe it's the eyes. I dunno why, but Paolo and his brother both come off as incrediby attractive to me, in a dark, sexy sort of way. It's that whole well-dressed devil look that makes Paolo so appealing. Then again, I'm weird, and so probably not a great judge.
I never intended for my fox character, renyard to that attractive, but apparently he's one of my poor popular characters which still amazes me. o_O; Maybe characters with angular features and pointed teeth just come off as hot...

Umm. I hate to break it to you, but that reynard of yours is a pretty attractive mofo, unintentional or not. lol
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Apparently so.

these things are twenty kinds of pretty. so saith me.
i, for one, really really adore the simplistic colour job. makes the lineart stand out like SHAZAM! you heard me.

I love it when you post anything as it usually give me the happy thing.
I do have to comment on something though. With both Emile and Paolo wearing black, they kind of meld together. The same with Ed and Dan. It's a little late now to do anything about it, but it may have been better to switch Emile and Ed (I'm pretty sure it's Ed. The other guy in the front) so they stand out more.
I'm sorry...I really do like it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You definitely have a point. Especially now with the colors...it's kind of blobby. I'll definitely remember that for next time.
P.S. I hope the happy thing isn't what I think it is. That would make all the little children sad.

I find it interesting that your comic is called "Five Finger Discount" when your characters have four fingers. Or at least Emilie does.
I like the simple colouring on it. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha, you have a point. I think...umm...Actually, I think only Dan has five fingers. Paolo has five whenever I remember to add them. They sort of disappear every other drawing. lol
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Yeah, I noticed that about Paolo, I assumed he had soem sort of magical finger growing ability.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
lol, nope, just artistic inconsistencies.
(Or, alternitively...just me being supremely lazy. I can't be bothered to draw in pinky fingers, you know.)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, I kinda switch back and forth between 4-5 fingers also. XD It all depends whether or not I'm too lazy to draw that extra finger.
I should just eliminate the middle man and just stop drawing hands altogether. 8D All my characters can just have stumps.

Yes. Double-arm amputees all the way.
