Some amateur comic stuff

Post by Pulp Hero »

It was always my dream to be a comic book artist, and through the years I've worked on a continuous cold war spy story as a hobby. Here are some semi-recent pictures related to that.

Very good for a early attempt at a gritty style, but the proportions and some of the faces look a little "off".

Pulp Hero, that is really cool. It's an extremely unusual style which I've never really seen before. Was it inspired by anything?

Totally jawesome. Aside from the proportions, it's really cool. Reminds me of the art of Metal Gear Solid.

I absolutely love the style, though it took a minute to come to that conclusion.

Somebody read the MGS manual a few too many times. :)

It looks cool, though. Slap together the odd three-panel piece and you'll have a drooling bad of pseudo-intellectual fanboys in no time. :)

It's OK. You have a good style, with the heavy blacks, but if you want to get into comics, you, at the very least, need to get your proportions down. Especially on the peoples. As usual I recommend the book series Dynamic Anatomy. Maybe lay off the MGS for a little while though. :wink:

There's a style which uses colour similar to how you have here, and I've only ever seen it in the MGS manual. I'm sure it's all over the place if you're a proper comic reading person, though. It's kinda Losers-style too.

And I think the twisted perspective is neat. :)
