Intresting note: This comic was the first one writen and the first one drawn back when I was doing the art solo. In fact thats why Gardevoir is the main character, I could drawn Pokemon but not humans. You can see it here lvl30psy.thecomicseries.com/files/extras/gardevoir_0015.png but be warned, it's done in pencil.
At the insistence of my cousin (who is AWESOME btw, love you Sarah!), I started playing Minecraft a few months after I met Guybrush. I stopped sometime during the 1.6 beta. Sure, the game's fun, but it requires a lot of patience and time to get the most out of it -- two things which are currently spent enduring school-related obstacles. Likewise, my RPG games like Glory to Heracles and Golden Sun: Dark Dawn are suffering some serious disuse.
Anyways, from here on out nearly every comic will have a 6-panel format -- this maximizes how much content we can fit in without becoming overbearing. It looks nice, don'tcha think?
...And I'm gonna warn you right now: Gardevoir's room going to change colors multiple times. We had a pretty hard time deciding on the exact shades of white-gray we wanted... and we still haven't decided, now that I think about it.
**First person to notice the massive coloring error in this comic wins a prize.**
I guess it's just that the art feels slightly unpolished? Like the lines could be neater/complete...? XD... I'm usually one to be drawn to "OMG EYEGASMIC ARTS".
(I really should have no right to complain since all my strips are "sketchbook-quality" stuff sans the Saturday art)
I will say this: I can still recognize the characters, so I'm not wholly fussing. I don't there's much to change really-- the art will get better as time goes on.
@_@ Meep. I talk too much. But yeah, I'm the artist/author of Visual Diary of My Life. X3 I'm glad you enjoy my work... odd I ran into a fan while skimming for comics to read. XD
I don't have access to a tablet, so I draw everything in pencil and then beef it up with Photoshop. That probably explains most of your concerns. ;)
Also, I have to learn how to draw characters on the fly from a myriad of different games, series, genres, and companies -- polishing each character design to perfection would take too much time, and I feel that I'm doing a quite acceptable job given the circumstances.
Also, this first batch of comics was drawn about 7-4 months ago, so you'll see a drastic improvement in quality in a few weeks!
I rather enjoy your art style: a blend of anime/manga and girly cartooning, which comes off as an ideal combination of detail and simplicity. In other words, cute yet engaging.
I meant unpolished in the lineart/art, not character design (the fact that the characters can be recognized is good). But I guess the pen looking lines gives the comic a bit of its charm as well at the moment. Again design/art stuff comes with time. No webcomic looks extremely spiffy in the beginning. X3
Yay! :3 Well I'm still here. I might not comment on everything, but I'll certainly be looking forward to more.
I died laughing this one to be honest... I LOVE the jokes. Keep it up!
...HEY WAIT A MINUTE aren't you the one who does the Visual Diary comics? I'm a fan of your work! Thanks for checking us out! :D

I'll have a prize for you soon-ish.
