comics and drawings!!... Constructive criticism welcome and needed
Teh Geek Lord:
They are kinda rough right now, but I will touch them up when my tablet arrives ( a 9 x 12 intuos).
These are my first two attempts at a whole-page comic. A while back I played around with some home-made srprites and made a shitty (albeit funny) comic in MS paint a few years back.
These are my first two in my foray back into comics and story telling.
I plan on making this a series (I have a semi-finished plot and ideas to continue it along) and will upload them into my DA account.
I'm posting this here so I can get some CC on them and pointers and other ideas to help me along in making a better comic.
(Also if you have a hatred of the so-called "furries" leave that for a PM as that would not be CONSTRUCTIVE criticism)

I think that you are perhaps spelling things out a little too much. When you're writing a book you have to explain what's going on because you have no pictures. When you're drawing a comic sometimes it's best to leave the pictures to tell the story themselves, for atmospheric reasons.

That aside, I agree with what est said. Anything you can explain well by using pictures will make the description that much more vivid. Also, this might be a matter of my personal preferences, but the guards really don't look guard-like in just a T-shirt and pants. I understand that it might just be because it's sort of a rough edit, but it looked out of place as compared to the looks of Sherman and whatever Bounty-hunter-dude's name is.

no problem, I'm going to cut back on words in the comic then. Yes, they are rough, will be finished with a tablet later on. I'll find something suitable for the gaurds to don when I finalize them.
Thanks for the comments and suggestions, they will be used.

Cutting back on words with and prose within the comic! Thanks, est!
