Oh the Joy of the Undead Party

Share

This is an entry for a contest on deviantart, the goal was to make a silent comic with the following themes:

Gothic
Vaudiville
Steampunk
Victorian Era

That's all there is to say. This was fun drawing!

**EDIT**
Didn't place. Someone else did. I think cause the judge doesn't like gore. Oh well, so I'll give this a shot with the halloween contest here, it's scary enough...right?

Crazy

Well this is kind of crazy, but still nice work, I did think that some of the "BLOOD" could have been darker maybe even have a blend of a few reds, but it was an overall nice piece and I like it so nice job indeed.

More mixture of blood would be nice indeed.

Good piece

While not one of your finest, this is certianly a good piece because there is so much detail in it. I admit that to a certain extent it does look a little cluttered. Still, I imagine that you took quite a bit of effort into making this picture. I thought maybe they were supposed to be vampires, but I am thinking you were going for a more zombie theme. The red blood contrasts well with the black and white. I realize that from watching "Madness Combat" cartoons that's an effect that works well. It is quite scary.

I guess it was not graphic enough to get an "M" rating. The best thing about it is how well the facial expressions are done. There are good feelings of sheer terror and sadistic glee in them. The checker boards seemed so messed up I thought you might have been going for an MC Escher-esque look. The teeth are well detailed with their points as well.

Hmm, I may see a couple problems here.

I think that there are two potential problems here. I say potential because the one may actually cause the other one, but it's hard to tell. The picture is actually very busy. Perhaps a little too busy for the eyes. There's so much going on in the main picture and no real focal point.

Maybe it isn't too busy content wise though. I think it's more about the amount of black in the room. All this black makes it hard for the viewer to tell what is what. It might be better to remove a couple of characters in general or maybe even just get rid of the black and white checkered patter on the floor.

Overall, the characters are done well, the picture looks pretty cool all in all, but it's really too busy to be a "great" piece of art in my opinion.

Yea, the bottom is busy, even I got confused when inking the tiles. I was pressed for time when I did this for a contest on DA. I'm not sure if comic pages have a focal point, this was a silent comic that conveys a story, but I digress.

Thanks for the reveiw, it really helps. =)
