Overall

Originality

Technique

Impact


You work is again, pretty spot on, so most of what I have to say is going to be a little nit picky - but it's always good to keep the little things in mind, since they so often make a big impact on our work. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Smile)" />

I think you're a little afraid of pushing your outer lines. Many of your outlines just don't push enough. I think if you thickened your outer edge line weights in most of your panels, you'd see that the characters and foreground elements pop out a lot more and really add depth to your art. I see you trying to do it in the last panel with that foreground bush, but I think you could still add more. The major problem area I see for this is in panel one where the lineweight on the bushes behind the character are actually heavier than the lineweight on the character. Do you see how pushing the lineweight on her would make it look more like she's in passing in front of the bush?

The only other problem I see is that the positioning of the panels on the door look a bit off.

Anyhow, that's about it for now. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Big Grin)" /> The page looks really good, you've done such a great job at all the little background details. I don't know what there is not to like, really.

how long does it take you to make a page like this and do you work right now on a creator owned project?

At this time, I'm working on some tryouts, so I'm not working for anybody.

To do a page like this, I need more or less 3 working days. This is particularly hard because of the amount of details it has. "BD" (French comics) has to be done this way: LOTS of details. LOTS.

damn...

i am from germany but i have no idea about the french market. do they work like in the us to split the color from the lineart artist or do they seek just persons which do all of them?

ManuelaSoriani In reply to comic-coloring [2010-03-11 15:59:07 +0000 UTC]

Yes, the colorist can be a different person from the line artist.
It is quite common.

Have you ever heard of Skydoll? Art is by Alessandro Barbucci, colors by Barbara Canepa.

You have to try, send your curriculum (it's better if it's in French!) to the publishers!
I'll cross my fingers for you.

This could be useful to you:

i holded the comic in my hands some time ago it whas realy nice done.

well the problem is..i cant speak french..german, english and a bit macedonian but no french.
so your link is like i would look at arabic signs

no need to cross them because it would took some time for me even to find some publishers not to talk about to understand the stuff on theire webpages.

i wish you good luck ! you seem to have a bigger chance and your linearts are realy great

Adoro le tue tavole e le inquadrature che scegli, le vignette sono così cariche e dettagliate, si viene calati benissimo nell'ambientazione! ^___^

Doppi complimenti perché io non avrei mai la pazienza di fare sfondi così dettagliati...per fortuna non sono una fumettista, ahah!
Cmq in bocca al lupo, spero che verrai notata! Il mercato francese Γ¨ un buon terreno!
