Posted: Fri Jul 13, 2007 7:13 am Post subject: Book 7 Discussion - (ZA goes B/W!) |
|
|
So book 7 started today and the one big thing is that I decided to do the book black and white.
I personally am really happy with how it looks as I've been on a huge b/w comic binge lately.
So what are your thoughts? Do you miss the color? Do you think it looks good this way? How is book 7 starting out?
Lemme know your thoughts! _________________

| I approve of the color change. I also approve of the new story arc. |

if i *say* (but not necessarily *mean*) i disapprove of the black-and-white-ness of the comics, can i still go with what your update says and come and lynch you in a few weeks? Pwetty pwease?
(however, i do think it looks pretty cool in B&W) |

Well, i don't mind the black and white but i miss the depth in the picture. Sure you did have SOME shadow i just think the whole picture can be bolder.
However, i fully trust your artistry (i wonder if thats a word) and can't wait to see how it progresses! _________________ [ WARNING: Unintentional misuse of liquid correction pen may be harmful! ] |

Heya cagefulloflions! Welcome to the forum. Post lots pls?
Yea that was just that page (re: shadows). The future pages are going to have tons of contrats with lots of black backgrounds and spooky shadows.

Welcome to the boards! And don't be so dejected, you know the (newish) old saying:
'Welcome to the internet, where the women are men, the men are men and the little girls are FBI-agents."
So naturally, by default, you're bound to be assumed to be male :P
Also, nemo, question:
Are the comics going to remain a strict black/white or are you going to incorporate shades of gray to produce kinda like a neat, spooky, old timey-effect? |

You will have to wait and see! :D

My momma always said, "If you can't say something nice...."
Ok, just kidding. Kinda
I don't *mind* the BW, I'm not sure if I prefer it or not.
The color artwork looks like it was produced entirely on the PC, but the colors are always very rich, and you tend to use better color choices than most artists.
The bw artwork is good, but looks more sketchy. It doesn't pop like the color does. Maybe has something to do with the bold-ish outlines setting off the color. Bolder outlines on the bw art may help. I don' know, I'm not a damn artist :)
Overall, I've been very pleased, and thank you ever so much for the hard work you put into it. Just as soon as my bank account moves over into the positive I'm buying a shirt  |

i just went through yesterday and read the entire comic of KVZA. i dont mind the black and white at all, but there's a certian feeling the color gave to it that the black and white just cant grab.
basically, what i'm trying to say, is that it looks great either way. i'd like to see a little color, but hell, it's still awesome. _________________ Steve: How you gonna act like my rims ain't clean? How you gonna act like my neck don't bling?
