Class Act: Like or No?

Post by Netrek »

To repeat: Does anyone out there have a useful opinion about the <A HREF="http://torio.keenspace.com">Class Act</A> comic? My last post didn't get any responses.

the strip has a lot of potential, i like it.

my main advice would be to work on makeing it a bit neater. you might try drawing panels bigger and then shrinking them when you scan

you might try coloring it and see what it looks like, just a sugjestion. keep at it, work on teqinque and stuff
(i loved the shakespeare strip)

Messiness is what happens when I depend on Simon's crappy scanner to translate the comics to Internet form. (sigh)

And coloring is just for special occasions, like Christmas, birthdays, Kwanzaa, y'know.

Thanx for the input!

Not bad.. but again with the bigger panels and darker inking maybe.

Try drawing on card stock and inking with felt tip.. works for me...

I like tha subject matter, and the strips are good.

+ Glitter girl... I thought that was genius.
- I didn't know it was a glitter girl until I read some of the first few strips... before it looked like that little muddy kid from Peanuts.
+ That insane Shakespeare joke
- Hard to read speech bubbles because the wordsarecrammedupsomuchthatyoucanttellthemapart.
+ That cartoon about the newspaper editor
- The two people that are always holding hands seems waaay too much like the couple from Zits
+ Not written for morons
- Sloppy
+ Simple characters...
- although sometimes they can be too simple
+ Deviates from the stupid mainstream school cartoons
- The name of the cartoon... handwritten... on all of the cartoons
+ Overall awesome jokes
- Same website design as... oh, you know who
- Little tiny cartoons
- No exploration of character depth
- Drawn on Xerox paper
- No color

Take it all in a good way, and dont beat me up in a parking lot for it.

-Yah, oops on the Dell&Erin bit. I'll be shoving them backstage soon.
-Sloppy & simple 'cause it's drawn for a school newspaper
-Is the name bad, or the heading? Again, it's a newspaper thing.
-Same for the lack of depth, color, &c.
-Xerox paper: I'm freakin' cheap
-Website design: Maybe if Simon took some <B>real</B> HTML lessons instead of cribbing from http://www.htmlgoodies.com . . .

I heard that.
