(I am in vague plans to change the style later on with a more sketchy black and white artwork were I will use a brush and ink.) Just an idea to bring more 'life' into the artwork. But I must find the right page to do implement that change in.


do you mean something shaded like your pencil drawings? I agree it woul dbring more life to the artwork, but it's hard to say bye bye to colors v_v you could implement the change once the backstories of npcs are over and you start the actual story. maybe you could draw some 'test' pages, maybe a panel with people talking, then a panel with a landscape then a panel with people fighting, just to see if this new style works with the main comic content ;-)


You are right about the forehead issue but I am a forehead fetish :) Still what I edited above is that I lowered the hair and the tiara now. Thanks for the constructive criticism :)

Peace

I forgot to write in my DA comment that the problem with his legs is that imho his feet point too much inward and we see them whole: it looks as he's standing on points; we should see just his toes and little of his feet instead ;-)
btw I wonder why the image of male drow nobles wearing that golden thing on their forehead is so popular? I know this comes fromt he early images of 'old' Drizzt http://frootbat31.fi...04/starless.jpg as he's wearing one in the books about his past, but it seems he doesn't wear it in later books. The newest images of him, drawn by Lockwood (I'm starting to think of him as Drizzt's 'official' artist) portrait him as young and not wearing that 'tiara' http://www.toddlockw.../1000_det01.jpg

But maybe he 'is' standing on points ;) I drew the tiara due to that he has one on the portrait for the Solaufein npc mod, even though that portrait might be a visualization on Drizzt for real.

Everyone draws drow lumpy :unsure:
Take above post with a glass of water. Do not take more than four doses in 24 hours. Store post in a cool, dry place. Always read the label.

Deleted this comic page. For the new comic visit: http://bhaalspawn.com/

I chose to do this so that there wont be any confusing between the old and newly crafted/edited comic pages.
Other than that thanks you all for the constructive criticism and the inspiring words. Hope to meet you all at the
new Bhaalspawn site. The comic wouldn't have developed to what it has if it wasn't from the aid of you all.

All the best and many thanks/
Michael H Bhaalspawn ;)

Only side point. Why Matron has red eyes, and Viccy, normal human eyes? For Valas, cruel punishment... :crying: Nice comic! :D

I think it would be better, if you add some tear to panel with Viccy's eye. It would be more sensitive. :D

I added fear into her eye instead. I bet that fear is the first reaction in such a situation. The tears comes later on when she can ventilate about what happened.

I can imagine Vicona saying 'a noble drow priestess crying??? I'm not a worthless male bugbear!'. just kidding
I agree with Flysoup's choice, I dont' think she'd cry in front of a matron mother, only later once she's alone and she realizes that she's become an outcast
