Not feeling creative lately. Want to create. No ideas though. Made a business card. Looks alright I guess, but not super excited about it. Take a look and give me your feedback. Short sentences. Awesome.

mahalo,

I'm really "digging" the style of the comic you're doing. Looks really nice.
:iconhockal1215:
Thanks man, I really appreciate it. Hopefully there will be more to come, if I can ever get the story off the ground.

As it was, then again it will be. Though the course may change sometimes, rivers always reach the sea.

If you have enough passion toward it and look hard enough for something, it'll happen.

Hey man your stuff is pretty darn cool, my stuff obviously isnt seeing as i dont put any up. I noticed that you said that you used photoshop to put colour onto your picture of deadpool with the inkwash, I'm seriously new to digital art and was wondering how you got your hand drawn pictures onto Photoshop? Did you scan them or something?
:iconhockal1215:
Yeah I just scanned it and then opened it in photoshop

Okay... finally got around to having a proper look at the Quietus archive.

Tum te tum... well, obviously, figure drawing's your strength. Your style's appropriate to the subject - slightly grotesque, can make women attractive without idealising them. And the more I see of your hands the more I like 'em.

Background and setting you're relatively weak on. The cars in page 33 are pretty ineffective, f'rinstance.

Your action stuff is occasionally a touch static; I'm thinking particularly of page 13 here. Action is, again, really fuckin' difficult. You do a good job of getting across what's happening, which is tricky in itself, but - well, look at the panel with the shoulder throw. Compare it to the lunging antagonist at the bottom of page 12.

I'd make a bunch of niggling-realism points about Fighting and Police Operations, but I'll try to hold my tongue for now. Normal rules don't apply in comics. One thing, though: a trained martial artist saying "if there's anything worth doing, it's worth doing right" and then throwing himself at his opponent is Funny. "I am angry and uncontrolled. Please inflict some more injuries upon me." Plus I really hope that Mystery Assailant had some kind of mystic regeneration thing going on with his broken leg before the reverse suplex. And - okay, I'll stop now.

I'm sorry I didn't respond to this earlier. Or notice it earlier. don't know where my head is at. I appreciate your criticisms, becuase they are mostly spot on. I admit, I know nothing of Police Operations. This is a post-apocalyptic world, mind you, but a sort of "you have to know the rules in order to break them" philosoph applies here. If you have suggestions on that, let me know. Send me a PM or e-mail or somethin. About the "trained martial artist", he's not really trained, nor much of a martial artist. Just damn limber. In my comic, assume that if something in there is absolutely absurd, it's supposed to be and will make sense later on. Oh, and I hate drawing cars. I'm on my 3rd draft of the current page because of em. Just a matter of practice. Car chases really werent meant for comics.
