Description Hey!

Well, I havnt really posted any of my actual comic book work up here, so I thought it might be cool to put afew of these up here n there before they get too old for me to bare any longer...hehehe.

This one is pretty much my favourite double page spread which I did for the series. Alot of that had to do with the fantastic finishes by Darrin Moore who went to town on the colours.

I think this one took me about 2 days to draw all up. It came together rather quickly actually for such a large piece.

Jon.

You're a comic artist!!! So cool!!! That's what I'm trying to do. You wouldn't mind critique a few comic pages for me would you??? This is truely excellent art!!! I think what separates a good artist from an excellent artist is creativity. Any Good artist can reproduce what another artist has done, but an Excellent artist can create and come up with the ideas that people dream. Once again great artwork, love the perspective and tiny people, and I most definately admire how you didn't get lazy with the background. Keep up the great work!!!!!!

Hey Q! Thaks man. Glad you liked my art. I'll have a look some of your stuff and let you know what I think. Can you post a link to whichever particular piece (s) you want me to check out and I'll go have a look at it for you.

Thanks for your very kind comments.

Please tell me what you honestly think (my graphic novel is at stake LOL!). Even if your thoughts are "scrap it and re-draw". I want to know what I'm doing wrong as well as doing right (hope I didn't ask for too much )

Hey Q,

Sorry for the late replies here....I have been away from my comp, and only got bakc a couple o days ago.

As far as your pages go, I had a look over them, and I noticed you had some pretty good feedback already on your pages, as well as taking some of that advice into hand as you progressed. this is very good, and its great to see soeone takig constructive critisism onboard and using it to improove.

When drawing comic pages, rememeber that you are telling a story through a sequence of images. Your job is to tell this story in the clearest way possible. Think about your layouts carefully and take care with the natural path which your eyes take to go from one panel to another. Make the pages interesting by guiding your viewer through the page from left to right and top to bottom.

Another quick little bit of advice I would give is to have a look at some good photography as well as some good movies for ideas on how to compose your panels. Make your camera angles interesting. Good camera angles and composition will add to your storyteling.

Hope some of this advice is helpfull and makes sense. Its pretty general info, but if you think about it and try to apply these basics to your pages, it will help. Basically try and learn the easy stuff first and get good at that.

Again, sorry for the briefness of my reply, but I hope its somewhat helpfull

Let me know if ou got any specific questions n I can try and help you more.

J.

PS: I'm gonna post afew of my sequential examples over the next few days, so feel free to crit them or check em out too if you want....believe me when I say they are far rom perfect themselves, and I'm still trying to learn all this stuff myself.

cheers!

Hey! Thankx for your help and insight. If you would like to see how I used the other advice, this is submition of my latest completed page [link]

I also had a look at one of your seq submitions. I thought it was cool. I liked the coloring.... Just wondering, about how long did it take you to color that page I'm looking foward to seeing more of your work. Keep up the great work.

Hey! Late reply here...but better late than never right?

I did not do the colours on this piece. They were done by Darrin Moore. Someone I often collab with on art. We should have something new which we did together up this week hopefully.

Glad you like the art! THANKS!!

FabianMonk [2005-03-07 09:55:28 +0000 UTC]

Hm, that's some good eatin! Only thing I hate about it is that it's a double page spread, and I always have my vices with those, because I just can't see everything without having to pry the comic book apart.

Allthough this is nothing new, it's still some real quality. Great lines and murder colors as well. I especially dig how GoBoy slams that baddies face into the ground, and how you kept in mind which way the baddy is facing. I don't know, it's just that sometimes people don't remember the placing. Spiffing!
