[Fault]

the "large head" is more caused by perspective than anything.

he's kind of hunched over in the top image. Were he standing straight up, there would be less... uh.. foreshortening. Also he would have a neck.

It's just that I've been trying to do more dynamic poses. A lot of my old work just had guys kinda standing around doing nothing, and that gets boring.

[Askot Bokbondeler]

oh, then it's not working too well, the pose is great but the perspective distortions do not look like it, i'm just seeing a goofy character with a big head and little feet. don't take me wrong, i love your art and complimented it before, and as an artist myself i know how hard we criticize ourselves and how disheartening it can be to be criticized by others on a work we are satisfied with, but i respect you too much to "be nice".

[Fault]

...yeah. All good points.

You know I'll try to keep him more in proportion on the actual pages of the comic.

and while that concept art was more about finalizing his outfit, I shouldn't have taken that as an excuse to throw out the laws of perspective, I guess.

EDIT: more concept art

Spoiler: goblins and trolls (click to show/hide)

The second goblin is so "I can see forever bro"

[Fault]

Agmirus, the Goblin Priest. He's the only one allowed to speak to the trolls.

the things they tell him... aren't that good for maintaining a sound mind.

[Acanthus117]

awesome.

I can't wait for an all out battle between the dwarves and goblins and shit.

[Sensei]

This looks pretty cool. Thanks to acanthus' comment though about half of them look like druggies.

[Askot Bokbondeler]

i'm lovin those trolls! they're more than mindless war beasts, eh?

[Fault]

I have drawn a portrait of william using Paint Tool Sai.



I would love to have the comic look like this... but it would take too much time, and I'm already behind schedule...

[G-Flex]

Why is all the speech text in this comic so... aliased? I mean, the vast majority of the comic is like that, but it stands out in the text (the accompanying bubbles) and it's a bit jarring.

[Fault]

bubbles are aliasy 'cause they're drawn in the original image, rather than added in digitally.

text is aliased because I like it that way, without all the edge softness.

[G-Flex]

What are you drawing it with that requires hard, monochrome edges like that though?

I understand about the text itself, but it honestly makes it a bit weird and MS-Painty to read after a while.

[Fault]

that might be because I make it in MS Paint... :-/

I love the portrait. Very well done. Looks like it could be a book cover.
