Title: Find yourself pics of your favorite character... through the time warp!
Post by: sbakerj on 10 Apr 2008, 13:22
1 current style favorite pic, and one pic from two other styles.
Give the character name, link to the strip, and the frame to look at.

Mmmmkay... say you favorite character is Marten. An example would be

Marten
http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1117, frame 6  ...oops
http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=47, frame 4
http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=278, frame 3

Time periods are told by how good the art is.

I feel it necessary to point out that your first link only has 6 frames.

I believe the OP would like us to show the early art for our favorite characters as compared to the more recent.

First appearance of Hannelore: (http://www.pbase.com/image/95452300.jpg)    Hanners today: (http://www.pbase.com/image/95452307.jpg)


Not as big a change as can be seen in the older characters, but the lines look a bit different (not an artist, "a bit different" is the best I can do :)).  Along with the hair it looks like her nose has changed quite a bit, and her face- especially around the chin, is thinner.  The bags/circles under the eyes are also something I think Jeph worked in after the original art.  I think Hanners also dropped a few of the piercings farther up her ear.

The "new" art really captures Hannelore's personality and character better in my opinion.  The first appearance makes her look confident, like she has it all together.


(apologies to Jeph, I photo-shopped out a few bits of dialog balloon in each of these images.....mostly because of a touch of Hanners in my own personality.)

I prefer the "older" drawing style for Faye and Dora. It may not be a big difference to others but for me it it's pretty darn different: http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=801 Faye's hair looks nicer to me, and Dora looks a tad more stylish somehow...

This is only slightly on topic, but one of my least favorite art changes was early on.

We went from http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=66

...to this short period of time where everyone looked really bizarre
http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=67

That was a change overnight and any time I browse the archives and I hit this strip, I cringe.

There's actually a thread on this already:

http://forums.questionablecontent.net/index.php/topic,19207.0.html

It has head shots of Marten, Faye and Dora. FWIW
