Very honest opinions reviews

[kristintipping7]

Thank you! Hearing that means a lot because I know you don't pull your punches. Some parts of the comic were kind of rushed, and there's bits that I can't help but cringe at looking back. So I was bracing myself for a bad review. It's nice to know that I made something someone else can enjoy, even if all I can see is its flaws sometimes.

I'm lazy so from now on I wont convert my raw notes into something more coherent, the review will just be my raw notes while reading the comic. Sorry!

nice anime style art
nice coloring
nice writing
nice flow and pace
feels like mad father/various rpgmaker horror games.
whoa he adapted really quickly to the time travel thing hmm
nice fonts
nice fx
hey hey ehy heyhey is this son rivalry thing with one of the sons named abel gonna be a cain and abel thing I see ya
OMG I ALREADY HATE THAT EVIL BLONDE CHILD
idk why but I really like the way the text balloons are drawn
wow reiteration but the pacing is really really good. like the way you’re slowly revealing parts of the story and backstory and everything, with flashbacks etc. feels very natural, good job, I feel that that’s something that’s really hard to do and a lot of comic artists struggle with that
neo is Edgy
aww I quite like this so far. family manga! refreshing
HAHA THE GOOGLE SEARCH
awwww I really empathise with the dad. it’s nice to see him trying to bond w/ son
hmm usually I don’t like annoying children but neo is somehow a slightly likeable annoying child. good job
hey don’t call your dad by his first name r00d
oh man the part where he’s preparing for the apocalypse is making me legitimately nervous
HOLY SHIBALLS OKAY PLOT TWIST NEO IS EVIL
Dammnnnn THIS IS EXCITING WOW
WOWWWWW

Conclusion: Super enjoyed reading this manga! It’s a very strong piece and I feel like I’m in very good hands reading it. Super high quality in every aspect, I don’t see anything off about it and everything about it is entertaining. One of the more immersive ones amongst the ones that I reviewed. The plot isn’t the most special but it definitely has some unique things like the enhanced objects, feels like a video game! Being super honest with you, I felt highly engaged throughout the entire manga. Good job! Keep it up and good luck!

If you have lots of free time then you can check out U-Speed. The older pages were being reformatted and recolored so i'm sure you will notice that. Thanks and looking forward to it. ^u^

Review:
nice colors, feels like it would fit the comic
hmm not a big fan of this art style. let’s see how it works out
DUDE WHY WOULD YOU SHOOT SOMEONE FOR REASONABLY REJECTING DRIVING YOU TO SOMEWHERE SUPER FAR?! okay unless this chick has a really good reason for manslaughter I don’t like her already
ok I don’t like the colors in the panels where it’s just normal lighting you should stick to the ones where it’s like the shading is hot pink or purple based, it’s your strong point
ok the art is kinda ugly. it’s barely passable as stylised but it’s still kinda obvious that it’s from lack of skill. I think if you go in this stylistic direction you should try to remove the manga influence because it’s a bit jarring/unfitting for your story (eg. manga-ish hair, diagonal line blush, L shaped nose etc)
hmm I like the blond girl
good writing tho, the lines had a lot of potential to be awkward but they turned out not awkward and natural sounding, especially the mafia interrogation scene
the thing that is making it awkward is THE ART! it’s too childish for this story!!
“she snorted it right there and confirmed it” AHHAHAHA THIS MADE ME LAUGH A LOT
Your characters all have pretty strong voices, I can imagine how they’d sound in my head, that’s good
HOLY SHIT THE SISTER NEEDS TO STOP KILLING PEOPLE WOW IRRITATING
OOH saying that she’s a mute so that they cut her free and let them escape is GENIUS!!
ok the song lyric is awkward
space out the panels a bit, currently they’re too squeezed so someone with an average scrolling speed would probably space out on a few of the panels in between. Rebirth has a good pacing, try to reference that.

Conclusion: This could be a very, very good comic if you improved it visually! If it were up to me it’d be good if you improved your drawing skill by a lot a lot a lot and space the panels out and vary them a bit instead of just a continuous shelf of cuboid panels squeezed together. The writing though is seriously very good quality, and the plot is pretty refreshing, I don’t see a lot of this sort of drugs dolla$$ sex kinda thing on tapas. ok after reading a bit the writing is almost strong enough to let the reader look past the kinda shitty art but it removes the immersiveness by quite a bit. the style and coloring style and everything is ok, just improve your fundamental art skills and anatomy. good luck!

Review:
ok this is nice and pretty
my annoying bubbly friend would probably share these on facebook
the way you position the text makes it a bit confusing. like there’s a main text and then some smaller text and I know that the main text is supposed to be read together linearly and like the smaller text is just to accompany the little drawings but sometimes it’s not so obvious. for eg. ep 2 I read it as “nothing different has ever come always have things can change without patience” then I was like wait what then I realised ohh the white text is supposed to be read separately. try to make it a bit more clear, maybe make the smaller text smaller or put it in bubbles?
in just be green, none of the conformists are green….i get that it’s a style choice, but it was a little awkward. there’d be more impact if they were actually green and the llama is bursting out in his non-greenness!
this is a nice series of iphone wallpapers
you should do an email subscription thing for this, like positive pastel quote every week in you inbox! that’d be cool, my friend subscribes to one of those

Conclusion: nothing much else to say… these are pretty and inspirational! share them on pinterest and other social media sites, I think they would take off. good luck!

We'd also love to hear it out: https://tapastic.com/series/IRIS
thank you xD

[Hodge]

Woah, thanks for putting so much time into this, if you can do mine as well I'd really appreciate it Axis

[69Michi]

Aw thank you so much that was such an entertaining read and very insightful! Thank you for taking your time to read my comic and write this down for me > _ < You are such a saint // I'm glad it had been an enjoying read to you and will keep your opinion in mind to improve them further!

[StrangeVision]

Haha! Thanks for the critique, this is quite helpful. It's hard for me to look at the early pages, the art is so rough. Not having a buffer doesn't help either, silly me. I shall continue to work on improving the art.

[shixinchng]

oh okay i'll keep that in mind

thank you for your input :3 good sir
and your time for goin through my mistakes m(_ _)m

[6ooey]

If you have time, I'd like input on my comic @XXIII. Thank you!

[miesmud]

You still have a big list to go, but I'd love to hear your opinion on my comic!
I really like how your reviews are just a storm of thoughts at the moment, some are even harsh. But that's what I want to hear, you say what you think! I've been bashed quite some times before, but mostly because my friends don't like the genre, so I wonder what you'd say of my comic:

Icebreaker

BRING IT ON!

[garrenn]

I understand if you're too busy after all these requests or if there's not really enough content to go on with my comic just yet (my fourth page is coming out tomorrow!) but if you're interested, you could check out my comic, Dreamwalker Felix.

[WakaXO]

Thank you for the review, it was very insightful! ^__^

[Hel]

Sorry for the late reply, but thanks for your review! I know you kind of trashed it, but everybody in my real life just says my comic is good so I've been seriously lacking in some much needed criticism.
I totally agree with you that I have so far to go with my art. I'm definitely more of a writer than an artist. My art is stiff, the anatomy is weird, etc. And the blobby nose thing. I didn't realize, but Miguel's nose is super weird!
That being said, as someone who does consider writing more my strength, I was super happy that you thought the writing and pacing worked. And that you liked Ramona and Miguel!
The art of Small Moon will be changing a lot as the series progresses, so I hope you'll pop back in from time to time to see if it's more to your taste.
Thanks again!

This comic is so adorable! Cute art and the general entire impression this comic gave me was a cute, very charming and authentic vibe. Sometimes I don't really get it because I'm not italian and I don't play baseball, but for some reason it still makes me lol and didn't put me off reading it because it was so fun and I could feel the fun-ness without having to understand it. My favorite episodes were ep 4, and OMG EP 32 WAS AMAZINGLY FUNNY I LOVED IT, and also ep 49 and ep 50. For some reason I preferred the shorter black and white formats to the more recent colored ones but the colored ones content wise were still on par with the first few, which is admirable because I would've expected you to run out of material by then haha. It's also pretty interesting to learn about baseball in an entertaining way through this comic! I really really liked this comic, and the fact that this was based off your own experiences with baseball made it so much better. Keep it up, you have a really cute and individual comedic style.

Thank you!
The black and white episodes where weekly strips with their pun starting and finishing there.
The latest ones are pages of a long story so sometimes they have not a pun or a sketch to laugh about, but a situation that develop in more pages...

[Jbcryptic]

I was wondering, if you have the time, my comic only has 28 pages so far but if you could take a look that would be awesome, it's Harmony Monsters. Specifically, I'm trying to figure out if it's at a place (art and plot wise) that makes sense and is engaging to read.

[Tyler_P_Kinney]

Glad you enjoyed it, there's plenty of stupidly weird monsters in the works!

This review thread seems very insightful xD I'd love it if you could review my webcomic as well, the beginning art might be a bit cringe worthy but welp,
