burn me 8DDDDD

I checked your art, idk if it's the art style, but the lips look awkward on the mc. If it's the art style, keep it, if not, change it.

I checked your art, it looks cute idk if im correct, but one of your chapters when the chick used the sink and fridge, it looks like you used a shape tool. Try to use a brush tool or pencil to draw these things.

Here's some constructive criticism from me.

Art wise, your stuff is nice! It sort of reminds me of attack of titan for some reason but I like it and gives some nice atmosphere to the comic. Obviously I'm sure it will improve with time, so I won't say much - I think you've got a good idea of perspective and body structure.

For the SFX, I know it's common in other webcomics and might be a personal preference but try to look up different sound effects to use in scenes.
Example: OPEN" The reader should know the door had been open from the panel itself so I would do a "creeek" or "ker-chack" instead.

You mentioned that English is your second language, so I would go over your scripts and text with an online grammar/spelling editor online so you can fix it before uploading it. It might be an extra step but will help to emerge readers into your story!

I feel like just by looking at the scene it's way too blurry. I know as you said you're going for a painterly style, but there should be more colour values and a clearer image of a scene being shown.

Ok thank you, I lowered the opacity level to 5, what level of opacity should I raise it to for a painterly look

Its a personal preference I think but I would first put down 80-100% (so you get a solid idea of what shapes you want), then work from there with a lower opacity brush and different complementary shades.
You can build up the details with that and look for references online to get a better outcome for the "look:" you want. Good luck!!

ok thank you, I got inspired from painterly looks from digitally painted comics and Alex Ross' art. Do you any art for critique?

yeah there are some really nice digital paint styles out there!

I'm okay, thank you.

I know what you mean! xD its his design but that bothers even to me XDD for the following chapters I reduced his big mouth a bit 8D
Thank you!!!

I love SNK!

ugh I had big trouble with sfx and onomatopoeias but your advices helps I was afraid to use these

I decided not to use them because I would be also unsure if it is right or not so I finally hired someone to help me on that T_T Im so grateful to her and hope to edit/fix everything after next update I cant continue embarrasing myself and confusing my readers anymore :sweat_02:

GUYS, THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICES

I would like to see more of your art. I think I understand the style you want to come with but to me it seems the brushes you are actually using are not helping you to accomplish it.

something like

Summary



correct me if Im wrong

Yup more like that and as @afuji mentioned here

you will get to the desired style
keep the good work!

I changed my art style so that I can make comics faster and more appealing.
Did it work?

Old5

New8

ok, here is my thoughts on your styles between old and new, I like the anime-esque feel in the old episodes and for the new one, I like the cartoony zany feel to it. Overall, you should stick with the cartoony zany feel of the new episodes because it shows more appeal and feeling imo. As for the anime-esque for the old eps, idk if i'm correct but the hands that are not exaggerated for comedic purpose looks super large, but if it's a style, then it's okay

Hands are just hard to draw. Especially in digital.
