Crit what? I only have praise for the accomplished artwork on display in this page. With accurate and expressive characters, this would be one of the better Archie issues. Do you have a link to the comic itself?

Yeah, especially digitally. I noticed that a lot of companies simply don't do bubbles by hand anymore.

I don't think it'll ever be finished, because the colorist and the penciler got hired on. There's only a few left for me to finish though. Got kind of bummed out that they weren't looking for inkers.

Hired on? You mean they got snatched up in the comic biz? Lucky them. Still, I'd be happy to see what pages you have inked. You could easily add the speech bubbles yourself.

You have Cintiq too?? Nice!

I've seen this a year ago and I still find this amazing - well inked (I can see the diversity of volume in your lines!).

Saw some Sonic icon on Priscilla's facebook page and it eventually led me here... wow, glad it did. Awesome stuff.
You really should work for Archie. The images and the inking are flawless, except for the line weight thing Kiriska mentioned.
My god... I want a Cintiq so badly now.

God this makes me miss the old SatAM series... why did they have to cancel it D=
Wish I at least could have read the comics that followed it but I had no means of doing so back then and now I'm just too lazy to try to find them online if they exist there

Both the art and inking are absolutely fantastic!

This comic looks like it'd be very much relevant to my interested, I hope you can tell us about it at some point.

Damn! This is looking awesome!

aside from that, the only thing I have to point out is (aside from what others said), and maybe this is only meant for animation and not comic page art, but...No Art To Lines?

No art to lines?

HanakoFairhall In reply to Tigsie [2011-01-06 22:12:54 +0000 UTC]

Art to lines are straight lines that extend outside the field of view *Which I'm guessing is the dotted line* they're meant to guide colourists so that they don't paint beyond a fixed surface area.

This one of Homer and Mr. Burns has one I believe, it's the red line drawn across the bottom.

Tigsie In reply to HanakoFairhall [2011-01-06 23:04:34 +0000 UTC]

No. Comics and animation are two different games. I should know, I've dabbled in both of them.
Inside the dotted line is just the safe zone. Whatever goes outside of it just gets risk of being cropped out of the picture all together during print. So, you extend your lines more just in case.

I don't see why the line is important in animation anymore? I could understand back in the day it was important not to waste paint, but everything is digital now. They'd just have another layer over it to hide the mess.

HanakoFairhall In reply to Tigsie [2011-01-06 23:16:50 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I know they are, and I realize applying a principle from one art form to another is pretty silly, but it does sometimes make sense in my warped mind

Yeah, I thought as much about the dotted line, it's a good idea to do things that way.


Eh, it isn't really, that's just what I was taught in Film School, it's sometimes helped in my drawings though, even digital ones

Good to find out you did the inking. I was developing a twitch trying to figure out how your style changed so abruptly.

Judging by the title we should at least be seeing a classic villain return.

As for the line weight I think you did fine for each character. It's dynamic and fluid. The only crit is where it differs between characters of the same depth. Panel two seems like Bunnie has more dynamism that Ant... unless you were doing this intentionally because she's the speaker but that's really the only place I find fault (if you can call it that).

Excited for this project.

akumagami [2011-01-06 16:38:49 +0000 UTC]

The only issues I see are that in the character outlines, they get really thick in some places and really thin in others. I see it most in the statue and the leg in the foreground in the last panel, but in some parts of Bunnie, too. A little variation helps, but if it isn't too consistent it ruins the illusion of depth.

Otherwise this is very nice! I could see you doing inks for professional comics.

Woah. I want a Wacom.

I need a Wacom!

(But I can't afford a Cintiq, the only one with it's own screen. And picking out what to invest in is...tricky.)

I'll agree with other comments on the inking; the mystery leg in the foreground ought to be thicker than the background.
Of course, you might have already touched it up since that comment was last made; I'm not sure. The foreground lines do look a bit darker to me, at least.

dawnbest [2011-01-06 14:17:19 +0000 UTC]

Amazing work. I love that you ink with thicker lines in foreground and thinner in background. Looking forward to seeing the finished version of this.

Kiriska [2011-01-06 07:07:08 +0000 UTC]

Ahhhh, so clean! Your inks are lovely! Only thing I would suggest is putting more line weight in things, especially figures in the extreme foreground, like whoever's in the last panel!

Tigsie In reply to Kiriska [2011-01-06 15:07:50 +0000 UTC]

I think you are correct about the mystery leg actually. The lines look a lot thicker up close than when you compress the file down to a smaller pixel size. Eye trickery! @_@
