"Pilot" strip for comic series.

I'm new to this, so any advice on layout and spacing/size would be appreciated. That said, I use my 3DS to draw this stuff so the proportions are scaled down in the app to view the entire picture. This means it's somewhat difficult for me to anticipate how it'll show up on a PC screen during the actual drawing.

And yes I know panel four is horrendous. I was trying to aim for a more detailed shot without losing the cartoony feel but it came out weird and I didn't feel like re-drawing it.

A tentative design for an NPC in a D&D campaign I might run sometime. Click the image to see the fullsize, and I've got tentative colors here. Any feedback?

I'd color it with pencils or something, but today I accidentally got some marker bleed on the original. I'm lucky it was only just shy of being too dark to easily edit out in Photoshop.

What program are you using? Maybe use a line tool for the panels. Title looks good though with the hand drawn edges.

Colors! 3D, it was like $7. There's no line tool that I'm aware of, but I was going for the "hand drawn" look for the panel edges anyway. If it looks bad just in general then I can touch it up in GIMP before uploading. Also that fourth panel is driving me nuts so I'll probably end up trying to re-draw it like fifty times and still not being pop flyin' with the result.

Edit: I keep saying "panel four" when I mean "panel three". I'm referring to the one with the action starburst and incredibly awkward stance-posing.

Not drawing arms and legs is kinda of lazy, and it's hard to tell what's going on when that is used in still images. I didn't knew that in panel 3 the guy was supposed to take his arm back for a punch until I read panel 4

Yeah. That's more "I can't draw arms without it looking like shit" so I went for the Rayman look. I tried to add some hint as to how the arms are positioned by drawing the shirt sleeve but I suppose if I'm going to go that far I may as well add in the arms. Thanks for the feedback. b

Since you're drawing with that really simple and flat cartoon look, you just could've added noodle arms

[Sol Reaper]

True that. Good thing it's not a pain in the booty to go back and edit.

I finally finished that animation project for class.

If the first half seems much more thought-out than the second, that’s because it was.

~8 hours, Photoshop

Operation Awesome, that's some really cute movement over the whole thing. I'd watch proportion a bit though, the robot seems a bit bigger in its first pose than in the rest. I dig it though, nice ending.

DDB, I really like your textures and shading but I think you need to establish where your light source is coming from; I feel like there'd either be overlap in the shadows on the hills/mountains or that the front of them would be brighter, depending on where you want the sun and such to be.

I noticed that while animating it, but seeing as it was the last full week of classes I didn't feel I had time to fix it.
