Love it, I'm getting a stylized and less sterile Top Cow feeling and that's a good thing! The color palette and lines are amazing in my opinion and even the theme seem engaging and exciting! |
Thanks! I read a lot of comics (naturally) but I can't really say there's an artist (or three) that I directly pull a style from... it has just kind of evolved over time. Ultimately, I want Variables to look as good as something produced by Marvel/DC/Image, but with its own flavor that separates it.
In another 30 pages, I'm sure my style will be drastically different than it is now. It's a moving target, really. The only thing that seems to stick around through it all is the linework. I've never been into drawing some of the brush-heavy, slightly messy work that is popular nowadays. I love to look at it but the style just doesn't really fit for my own work.
Of course, now that I said that, I'll probably start to think it's fun to draw in a faster, looser style.

Can i ask what program do you use to draw with?, do you use some kind of tablet etc?. Like i said i really want to start working on a comic too. as i have a great idea for a story but i could do with some tips on what programs to use etc.

In the case of the comic, I draw traditionally. This was done on bristol board with india ink, a brush, a quill, and technical pens. I color it in Photoshop using a Wacom Intuos tablet. I letter it in Illustrator.
There are other times when I draw entirely digitally, though. In that case, it's all done in Photoshop with the Intuos tablet.
