You seem good enough, i need more examples to really make any sort of decision about you. When you say your up for trying something new, does this mean you will quit after one issue? The newspaper is always looking for talented writers and artists such as yourself to help around with the paper. And having you arrive, may help through the summer months especially!

Alas i do not know how the comics section is doing, so i cannot comment to much on how helpful you may or may not be to them, good luck however.
Adam?
It's very short and small...do you have any other examples?

When I say I want to try something new, I want to try something new, I would have no intention of quiting after 1 issue, its just I have lots of free time on my hands at the moment, so i'm finding ways to use it smile.gif

I know it is quite small, but that is the style I have come to do, I may try something a little bigger later.

And as for an example I have another here, I can't seem to find any other on this computer, I'll have a look on my old one tomorow.



OFF TOPIC- My 1000th post biggrin.gif

I still think you need a better example, people are lazy and promises that you will try stuff out later isn't that re-assuring to me, but good luck. biggrin.gif

Can you do a bigger as in (size wise) comic. I don't want to go to the trouble of exercising my eyes? biggrin.gif Everything else is fine. tongue.gif
Adam?
I felt that the first was too small, but that isn't too bad. Humor is decent, but could use better delivery. Comics also rely a lot on facial expressions, and with a size like this, you are at a disadvantage. My advice: keep style but increase character design a tap and crank font size up a notch. I'll accept this if you promise to be active and improve on size.

It's funny. tongue.gif But just improve on grammar though. And size. Its' nto really fun to browse comics where you have to hang over your desk closely to your screen to read them. pfft.gif

EDIT- Thanks biggrin.gif

I will keep trying on it aswell smile.gif

Tons better. smile.gif

Also, I guess you use font size 10 now, so use 12 or 14 next time. (Always do even numbers.) I recommend 14 though.

Yea I did think abount font size, I wouldn't keep it tiny wiht bigger Characters tongue.gif

I'm just giving you the hint of not doing it at 13. ohmy.gif It would become a little bit uneven. Also, there is a lot of white space left above your characters. Let your characters actually be in the middle of the blocks.

Why what happens at size 13?
How does it go uneven?

EDIT- Thanks, I will try that next time smile.gif
Adam?
That looks very good. Try to redo one of your previous comics with this design.

As an example, the vertical lines of the E would be a little bit messed up. And some other things too. You can try it, but you're better of chosing size 14.
