Old Strips vs New Strips

Valekraft:
Ever watch a first season simpsons episode and compare it to the current ones? same situation. The more you draw the same characters on  a daily basis, the better they get.

anythingxbutxnormal:
It's amazing how much he has improved in his work. The only question is. What did he use to improve? Other web-comics? Anatomy books? Sheer imagination? I've personally found that the newer comics are so well drawn that I study them and am now attempting to recreate that same style. But is that a bad thing? I'm not sure...anyways it's crazy how he went from simple sketches to full-blown works of cartoon genius.

Blackcat Moebius:
What's cool to me is how the changes were almost always gradual.  When I go through the archives, in order, I hardly even notice most of the changes;  I've certainly never had trouble figuring out which character is supposed to be which.

Go back to like comic 79, look at the art, look closely at the art. Then, go to today's comic. Be full of amazement at how much the art has evolved over time. At least, I'm full of amazement.

My first thought was "Oh god, they look like actual people now!"
My second was "They've always looked like people, but now they're just drawn better."
My thrid was "Oh god, they look like actual people now."

This went on for approximately thirty seconds before I decided to come here and report it to you all.

Coming from another artist, probably all that and more. Practice is the big thing, but inspiration can come from all over the place.
