Art change?
TheRedMaiden:
I agree, I've really grown apart from anime-esque style, and I've got countless other webcomics I can go to for that. I like QC because it meets that happy medium for me between super cartoony and overly realistic looking. I adore watching art styles change with webcomics, it keeps it fresh and fun to watch the artist develop, but this definitely feels like a downgrade to me. Hannelore does look more childish, which I feel doesn't work with her character anymore after how much she's grown and developed. Marigold would probably look absolutely adorable in this style, but I feel it takes something away from everyone's character and could draw the tone away from the more serious arcs.
But that's just my opinion. Jeph can do what he wants with the comic, he's the one who has to draw them afterall. :P I'll absolutely continue reading, but the new style just isn't my preference.

--- Quote from: Jeph's twitter ---lots of people commenting on the different art in today's comic. It's a lot of fun to draw, feels like I've "opened up" or something

Definitely looks like he's drawing fast and loose. It looks less realistic but a lot of the curves (shoulders, wrists etc.) are, well, curvier. Given how Jeph has a tendency to beat himself up over perceived flaws in his art, it's no wonder he's enjoying the change to something more easy-going.
Schwungrad:
I noticed that May looks totally not like her in panel 4 of #2763, but couldn't put the finger on what it was.
I liked the "ligne claire" (i.e. shading-less) style in #2762 too
