Comic Discussion > QUESTIONABLE CONTENT
Yo Jeph:
Lazer:
In the latest comic (1442, precisely) Will is starting to look like Marten (in the chin, jaw structure and eyes) and Penny is starting to look like Angus (eyes and nose). Please be careful about getting into habits drawing faces, or otherwise your characters will be like Animu, that is to say, totally devoid of character aside from different haircuts and outfits.
Thanks,
The Management.

Wow...
"Hey Jeph, rabble rabble rabble you're not doing things right rabble rabble even though it's your comic and well, you spend a fuck load of time drawing this stuff for our entertainment rabble rabble rabble"
Yup... That about sums it up.
*rolls eyes*
Lazer:
Sorry, I'll rephrase it in a "constructive" manner for those of you who are total pussies.
"Hey Jeph, I really like your comic (which should be totally obvious because I'm posting here in the first place) and general ass kissing aside, I've got a bit of a art crit for ya! You gotta watch out for those non-realistic faces man, or they will start to blend together! As one friendly artist to another, I recommend making a "face template" where you go through and draw the individual parts of characters in rows to where you can clearly differentiate between them. This way they all have their own personality. It takes a bit of time, but in the long run, it's totally worth it, buddy! Remember, conceptualize then draw."
There are you happy now? Jeeze.
pwhodges:
Do you really feel that as a kid more than ten years younger than Jeph, a highly successful web artist for quite a number of years now, it's your place to give him advice (based, it would seem, on an inability to see the distinctions in his drawings that are clearly there)?

Do you really think he cares though? I mean... Seriously... Who are you to be giving advice? He has been doing this long enough with the same characters that, well... I'm willing to sit the hell back and figure he knows how he wants HIS ART to look.
It's not about being a pussie... It's about not coming in here spouting your opinion on how JEPHS ART should look.
