For a very long period of time, I have been creating very detailed artwork. when I say detailed I mean like drawing, coloring with intricate detail when shading. Over a period of time while making comics I realized that once I omitted the detail I could be much Much faster. don't get me wrong, I love detail and I did it on every page but one day I found myself losing interest in even finishing my comics and adding that much detail became overwhelming and suddenly i decided to make a change. I said to myself, "dang only if I just did my artwork in flat color and not have to worry about it or worry about what people think". Right then I there I made a decision to transition. Any comic I decided to create in the future will be nothing but flat color, I'm talking about first grade Sh*t here lol no detail what so ever. And then I created my comic (strings and Time). its all in flat color and guess what, it looks bloody amazing. I don't even notice that there aren't any shadows or dark areas. everything is completely flat. I found a way to make it look captivating and interesting without spending so many hours and I can make my readers happy by posting quicker and I am much happier because I can get the job done faster.
So, what about you guys? what do you think about a comic that is all flat color? are you willing to try it yourself? and is there something you do differently that makes you get the job done faster? feel free to share your experience.
by the way, this is what i'm talking about. i like the flat just as much as the detail.
also, check out my comic. all flats!
