CHEVALIER character design art links
« on: September 26, 2010, 10:26:55 AM »
I'm currently working on a new furry webcomic with artist Tiffany Ross (Alien Dice, Darius), it's called "CHEVALIER: The Queen's Mouseketeer" and it's a furry fairy tale romantic fantasy adventure. The webcomic hasn't started showing yet (Oct 4th), but we have posted (and will be posting more) character designs from the story. Here is a link to the ones up now:

Huh, right, so there's some proper good art going into this... Well a webcomic can't live on art alone, but what it has, looks good. I'll have a proper opinion when the comic actually starts

Artwork so far looks great. Though remember that artwork is but one part of what makes a web comic great.

Thanks. I'm guessing you mean the newly posted "Tom-Tom" design? For those of you who haven't seen it, here's the link:

Thanks, guys.

The style you speak of belongs to artist Tiffany Ross. You may have heard of her. She does "Alien Dice" and "Darius" among webcomics.

Well it's definitely looking better than the average, and the idea of making it very fairy tale is great. I like that, but I think the actual execution is lacking something.

I mean that intro was about seven pages long, when it could have been done in two or three, preferably less since the important thing is the main character. As for the look, this is more personal opinion, but i think considering how fairy tale you want it to be, I think it needs to be less contained, less strict and robotic. The panels could be more free and open and malleable than they are. Not everything needs to be a square. Also some of the individual panels are a bit clustered and confusing. Sometimes it's hard to tell what's important and what to focus on.

You and your artist should check out this site
http://dresdencodak.tumblr.com/

it could really help, what right now is an above average webcomic. It could be brilliant, you just need to tighten up your execution.

But yeah, I like it and will  be keeping tabs on it
