I really like the coloring. Curious to see how the story develops.
Usually forget about this thread when I update. Anyway, remembered today, completing the corruption of the guardian of the peace :D

heh, well… what's to say about the latest page of Dark Sisters, other than that's ONE way to work a deal. I don't remember ANY of my business affairs having client meetings like this one…
For my comic, don't go to the one in my banner (if it even works, haven't checked in the new forums yet whether it does or not). Instead, I've got a new comic that's updating weekly now that might be a bit different from what you might normally read. Let the Hunt begin http://www.drunkduck.com/lthb is my newest comic, written by myself and illustrated by Humbug from Tales of Pylea. It revolves around Ian, a new MouseHunter to the Kingdom of Gnawnia as he begins to learn the ropes of hunting mice. This is a fan comic of the Facebook game, Mousehunt, by HitGrab entertainment. The game is immersive and surprisingly addictive, and the webcomic will be updating weekly if anyone's interested. :)

Very nice line art, the dialogue seems pretty goos too.

@Essay Bee, Fusion is just so clever and witty with great humor. The main character, Savuun, is so cute and funny! :)
Skooland updates with positive energy coming into the story again.

Lite_Bites: HAHAA! Can't stop laughing. So barbarians do fear Bears after all. Just hope the poor camel gets a chance to escape. :)

Beast Legion: Ginta doesn't seem impressed with Xeus, but will things change?

Looks like you're stuck with me again, JazylH… ;-)
I guess since I've already commented on the quality of the facial expressions, page layouts and varying camera angles, I'll point out something I really like about the lettering this week - it's always nice to see a webcomic whose author actually takes the time to do properly shaped word balloons with curved tails, rather than the usual ellipses-with-triangles. I was guilty of the latter for long enough myself until I saw the light, but these days, it's kinda something I notice.

On today's Bulletproof page (link in sig), the bad guy has lost his a-bomb, so he drops an f-bomb instead. Plus a couple hundred bullets. Clearly, he's mad. Also, that spacehamster guy rambles even more about lettering in the comments.

Posted at 11:10AM, Oct. 3, 2011

For Bulletproof: Awesome angles and the layout really advances the action in this page. Very crisp and clear black and white! Really great job.

Brave Resistance updates today with Hunter's first meeting with the doctor.

Posted at 6:10AM, Oct. 4, 2011

A Brave Resistance update is always a treat. Okay, the writing, art, and colors are always top-notch (as I hope I've made clear in other posts!), but I think the color-coded text for the different languages is a really great idea. Plus, I really like the look of the site with the bloody footprints in the snow background. Not only does the comic look great, but so does the BR site. Very nicely done!
Over at Fusion, it's time to get back to the story as the fifth issue kicks off with a first look at the Fabulous Five (granted Psy-Girl had an appearance last issue). Click on my sig to check it out!

Posted at 1:10PM, Oct. 5, 2011

The cover looks great. Not sure what's going to happen in this issue but from my understanding, this is the "unveiling" of all the hero characters for the first time together as a unit. Your current readers should be excited to see this if this is something you have been leading up to throughout your story. As someone seeing the comic for the first time and me not knowing the total story, I'm not sure if I grasp the weight of what's in the cover…the first assemblance of these 5 heros. Just a note to try to draw in both your current readership AND new readers that happen past your comic. (maybe showing them in "action" will satisfy both…I don't know. Just a suggestion.) Great artwork, and great coloring though!

Thumbs up to the illustrator on True Masters! Great writing too btw. There's really no criticisms here so keep working on it!
Skooland has three more pages of Castaways well actually six because on Monday the site was acting weird and I couldn't get on the forums.

Posted at 11:10AM, Oct. 7, 2011

your drawing shows a lot of promise so keep working on it and you'll be great. some advice i'd give you to improve would be to perhaps ink your drawings or atleast use a darker type of lead. also use a ruler to make all the panels for your comic so it can look a lot cleaner.. aside from that your style and character design is very fun and cartoon-y. keep up the good work!
Here's my comic The Living End.

Posted at 4:10PM, Oct. 7, 2011

The cover of The Living End looks really awesome. Nice use of the markers too.^^
Skooland updates with three more pages.

Posted at 5:10AM, Oct. 8, 2011

I have to second what raimusxczar said, you art shows promise but needs some fine tuning.

B.A.S.O. has a new page, in which Harriet makes an offer out of desperation.
http://www.drunkduck.com/BASO/

Posted at 9:10AM, Oct. 10, 2011

I usually don't like Poser-created comics (at least I assume that's what Genejoke uses), but BASO actually looks nice. The page layout is purposeful and lean, not the usual clutter you often get in these types of comics, the facial expressions are well done and the lighting works. Very nice.
——————————-
Bulletproof (link in sig) updates today. Someone finally thinks outside the box (literally, really), and the bad guy gets vaporized. FWAMM! Yep.

Posted at 9:10PM, Oct. 11, 2011

This was the first time I checked out Bulletproof, but I'm definitely going to have to take a closer look. The art looks great in color and black and white, and I'm a pretty big fan of being able to tell the characters apart by more than what they are wearing (although, in an odd change of pace, the women look more distinct than the men do).
Good stuff.

Hellrazer, linked below, updates every Tuesday and Friday.

One good font, one hideous font. Strangley the creepy vampire chick has the good font. intresting page. This is in my favouriates list but I haven't read it fully yet.

B.A.S.O. has a new page, more talking hopefully the exosition isn't too clumsy.
http://www.drunkduck.com/BASO/

Posted at 4:10PM, Oct. 12, 2011

The 3D characters in BASO are quite interesting though I like the female characters more. As for the talk bubbles, I ended up reading several out of order. But that doesn't keep me from understanding what's going on.
Skooland updates with three pages.

Posted at 5:10AM, Oct. 17, 2011

Sig link is broken, mang. Thought you'd want to know. Although I have no idea how to fix it, mine's from before the site change and magically still works.
Anyway, obviously the big strength here is the facial expressions. Plus I honestly don't remember ever seeing a comic with talking pencils, so points for originality as well. ;-)
——————-
Bulletproof updates today. This page concludes the current chapter, so now's the time to read it all in one go if that's what floats your boat. Vector barks orders! Atlas gets snippy! And where's Whiplash's handbag? Epic stuff, right?

Posted at 4:10AM, Oct. 20, 2011

So, I checked out the entire 5th issue. Great artwork, love the backgrounds and shadowing. Not sure if I'm feeling the inner monologues (maybe too many of them for me), but to each their own. It's a writing choice. Again though, great inking on this project!

2-page update for The True Masters Chronicles (actually 4-page update since I last posted in this forum). First introduction to 2 key characters in these pages!

Hi, My name is Joe and I'm fairly new to the site but not doing comics. I've got a BFA in Illustration and have taught in the past.
I'm going to talk about D Comix's Skoolland. Overall you have good storytelling and it's nice how you change the readers view through the story. I would watch your panels to make sure the order they are to be read in is clear. You have to think about what order the panels in page 33 should be read.
On the tech. side of things 1) you should be able to darken up you likes in photoshop or whatever program your using. That would make it a bit easier to read. 2) you could make the font lighter or thinner so it's not so domminate. If you go to Bambot.com there are some very good comic fonts and a lot of them are free.
Here is my deal. I'm posting and reworking my comic strip Elsewhere and plan to start a new one down the road. I will do a Critque for anyone that is does one of mine. Just make sure you let me know so I don't miss it.
Thanx, Joe
P.S. you can see more of my other artwork at http://joe5art.deviantart.com/

Not sure if Joe paid attention to this forum's format or not, but I'm just simply going to repost. Hope no one minds. Need the feedback…

@ True Masters - Nice comic. Very well-colored and easy to understand.

MAG-ISA updates today with the cover page for Chapter 17: Extinguish the Light
http://www.drunkduck.com/MAG_ISA/5362882/

Posted at 11:10PM, Oct. 23, 2011

For Mag-Isa: The cover is very ominous. I really like the glowing effects as well as the way symbolic things are scattered around her pretty much like in a film about ritualistic serial killers. Well done!

Tantz Aerene: The guy with the scar on the left reminds me of Iruka Sensei from Naruto. (idk if you watch Naruto but if you really care just google image him.)
Your art is really good!
