Final project for Survey of Computer Art Applications. We could do whatever the hell we wanted as long as it used Photoshop, Illustrator, In-Design or some other Adobe software. I decided to do an 8-page comic and throw some halftones on there using the super-duper technical-sounding bitmapping technique.

I can tell you everything that is wrong with this comic right now, including, but not limited to:

MOIR in the halftones

The dock keeps changing sizes

The fish turns into Supergator in the last panel

I stopped caring about black placement halfway through

etc, etc

BUT DESPITE ALL OF THAT I'M VERY HAPPY WITH THIS. It turned out much nicer than I expected, especially since this was my first time using halftones. I was also kind of experimenting with angles and the 180 degree rule the whole time, so it was quite a learning experience. Thanks to everyone for the feedback for the first page.

ONLY ONE MORE FINAL TO GO!

This makes my heart SUPER happy!

Anyways.... I think you're being too harsh on yourself with your critiques of this.... the dock/pier doesn't (to my eyes) seem to change overly much. there may be a little variation, but hardly noticeable.

I say it's good. SO IT IS. :)

turnbull, she was a cool lady but waaaaay too into the whole OMG CONCEPT! idea. And she took off for the tiniest things. >:I

I can't complain too much though, because I had an 89.75 at the end of the quarter and she was kind enough to bump it up to a 90 so I'd have the A.

Hmm...that "whatever the hell you want" final...did you have prof. Lovelace? At least I think that was her name...anyway your style is so great for comics, and despite it being cartoony, you still pay a lot of attention to the backgrounds. It looks awesome!
