I think William, in that pic, looks very separate from the background. Also the cobwebs are crummy. Else is good.

I haven't looked back in on this in a while... I'm liking the most recent pages, and the direction you're going in with the art here. It's getting rather polished... really fond of how William looks on page 40 and 41.

yeah it is just stupid how inconsistent william looked on the early pages. Glad you think he looks better now.

On a similar note, is it getting easier to tell the dwarves apart? do you think I should do like... a character model sheet for them, to clear up any confusion?

I bet I could tell them apart if I wasn't only seeing them every two weeks. :P

That said, I can mostly tell them apart but i still don't remember their names too well. I think you should have one of them braid their beard if you want them more recognizable.

page #43 is up.

In which the party starts the long(?) trek home.

I've switched to a finer Pen since the last page (my old one ran out of ink) so the lines are a little different...

I was thinking something looked different. I think some panels are harder to make out than normal and some easier. A finer pen would definitely be a better choice in color but in black and white the large shots are a little unclear sometimes.

I've started doing little pages that explain character traits and physical appearances so the characters are easier to tell apart.

I think the alarming part here is how close he got to the deer before it noticed him.

I think the cloaks hide their breadth, making them look gnome-ish. On the other hand, from the way they look in that drawing, I could never possibly mistake the two (although I'm not sure how distinguished they are from behind).

yeah I hate the cloaks now.

they were kind of like... a lazy way to avoid drawing their entire bodies before I had finalized the design. But now that I have, the cloaks just make them look.. well, as you said, gnome-like. They totally have to lose the cloaks like... really soon.

(although I'm not sure how distinguished they are from behind).
Norik has his hair in a pony tail... and Kolgan doesn't. that's about it, for now...

I noticed the colored beards help distinguish them a lot, which explains why we've been confused about the dwarves from time to time.
