Old vs New, Start vs Current!

[Damatris]

Ooh, I love seeing other people's improvement! <3

As for me, here's the first ever page I drew for Fallacy

And now we are here, 2 years later

And after I tweaked the coloring method

[Chopythes]

This one was made in early December 2012.
I wasn't sure how I wanted Beive to look like, but I kind of just settled with this design.

This page is the one I liked the most in the chapter that's finished now, so I grabbed it as you can see Beive more clearly here.
I made it earlier this year, in June or so, I think.

And this one's just a teaser for what's coming up next, made in September.

My comic's just getting darker and darker, HAHA!

I love topics like these, mostly because I don't take much time to look back at the old stuff.
Here's a from Chapter 1 of The Lostland from back in 2011:

And here's what they look like almost 4 years later:

I think my favorite evident of improvement/change per se is how I've done backgrounds over the past years.

The first is from...2013?? Maybe? I'm not entirely sure. Either 2013 or 2012. The second is from my series Ark. Down to the most recent from my Tyree series revamp.

The improvement is amazing!

A chance to show everyone embarrassing old art? Sure! I'm loving seeing everyone else's as well.

The original version of City of Blank was actually started in 2010. So... My approach to the first pages were uh...certainly different 5 years later.

However, for a better example of how much the art's really changed, here's a remake of a page from 2010 as well.

I hope there's at least a little bit of improvement apparent beyond just adding color!

[wbparham247]

I love City of Blank! I'm a sucker for original stories and good art. It's cool to see the beginnings of it.

[60Six]

Aw, thanks! That makes me super happy to hear!
Once the comic is caught up to the old version (Which will be a while, I had about 200 pages of the old version), I plan on posting a link for everyone to read the old version.

[wbparham247]

Awesome! Looking forward to it

I started drawing The Angel with Black Wings back in 2012. Here's a sample page:

This was the time before I was able to get an opportunity to train and work on a studio. It's pretty embarassing but I'm really bad at drawing back then much to the point that I don't have much confidence on it.

Then I started to remake this entire comic (I only drew 27 pages of the old ones).

This is Chapter 1 page 5:

chapter 1 page 12:

I got to say that I drew these pages on 2014. I did a year's worth of buffer before publishing this online on March 2015. I know I still have lots to improve but compared to the me back then, I have enough confidence to show my stuffs to others.

This is my latest page posted (although not the latest that I drew:)

[monotone_ink]

Love the sense of composition; it gets better throughout the entire thing

[meatmaiden]

I've drawn my current webcomic three times, here's comparison shots of the panels;

2013

2014

2015

I'm pretty happy with my improvement! My story writing skills have also gotten a bit better, I think. The main problem with 2013 and 2014 was my writing--- for 2013 I was just making it up as I went along, and for 2014 I was writing chapter by chapter. This time I wrote the entire script before I drew anything, and now that I have everything neatly laid out drawing it has been a lot easier. So I know I'll finish it this time! ^^

[zetina]

I don't have comparisons to show of my current comic since it just started but the biggest improvement can be seen for my pokémon sketch comic i drew on occasion from 2008 to 2012

[WasHNooB]

This is just a page from our comic The Dumpling King that was done 7 times XD over the past 1 year...

[meatmaiden]

Seven times?! Dang you have stamina... x'DDD
My record is four times over the course of that many years... ^^;;

[konori]

I haven't rebooted any of my comics, but I have a fantasy comic I made in 2008, which I can compare to a fantasy comic I started making in 2015. 8D

Here's the 2008 comic page of an old oneshot:

And here's the 2015 comic page of The Ogre Cook:

Both are introductory pages to a second character that appears in the comic. I think the biggest difference is the way I use screen tones and shadings. XD

[WasHNooB]

hahaha we are thinking of an 8th XD

[daisam]

Hmm here are mine!

2011 and 2016!

This is my very first series vs the current one I am working on! Pandora vs. Discord in other words which now that I think about it this is pretty funny!

[WakaXO]

My current comic, Neon Rabbit, is very new so there isn't much in the way of improvement as I have done all the pages in the past 4ish months.
Here is page4

compared to page30ish

but if you compare it to the comic I worked on a while back its easier to see improvement
