Your coloring is half done, no shading no nothing
Its kinda hard to get clarity in the characters
The text boxes are weeeird
There’s little color contrast
But you got this
Just keep refining your skills
also its a bit boring for pannels to only show character half body shots
Have a few just showing like an expression, a whole body, or a landscape
And it is a good thing to note that most people are interested in buying pictures instead of whole comics because it can be hard to get into and the quality difference
faxx
trace and clear it on digital and rander a lil
it would look much cooler
and ofc you can print and just colour with pencils
Hello,
I just want to add reminder that your worth as artist is not tied with how much works you sell. Commissions are more about marketing, often posting, presence on social media etc etc. Make sure that you are focusing on yourself and your skills first before you worry about commissions and clients. Make sure that you are not burning yourself up just because people didn't notice your work yet. As I said, it's more about regular posting and such which is whole different thing to focus
I hate digital
Dude all I have to work with is some shitty colored pencils
Also some of the things are supposed to be white
I need you to dial it way down. People are trying to help you understand. Sometimes the truth is not what you want, but is what you need to hear
Fair, but I was talking about the parts that you did color being more full leas streaky (if the streaks are intentional then making all the shading the same value would look more coherent) even with the use of crappy color pencils there are techniques to make it better
Sorry I just don’t wanna have to remake these 100 pages I’ve mad
Its okay to be mad about critique, but you can always ignore it , and I am sensing you may be looking for business help rather than art help from what you are sayyng
I can try and work on coloring stuffs
And sorry If my words were not the most sanitized I think I wrote that really late
Also your skills in art are very low. I dont even have to analyze it and can easily tell that you are a beginner. Theres nothing wrong with that, but it is an important thing to understand about your position rn. You will need to improve on your foundation and technical skills before you get to the point where lots of people would consider buying your art. Its hard to hear, but its something you need to understand
My skills in art are not very low what are you on about?
Dude
Like that’s literally just not true
Chilll
I assure you you are not as good as you think you are. Theres what is called the dunning krugger effect. Its basically how your confidence in your skills relates to your actual skill. This applying to all skills not just art. When you just start out you see your skill and know youre not good. You learn a little and think you know almost anything there is to know so you dont think theres anything to learn. Later you start to realize you dont know much so your confidence plummets and you end up thinking youre worse than you actually are. Then as you learn you gain confidence gradually, but you never feel like you know more than you actualy do. You rn are at the part where you think youre way better than you actually are.
Trust me this is how all skills work. You are at that point. No changing that
Ill show you im better than you think
As you improve youll start to realize how much you dont know
