Featured Artists

I have a lot of watchers and It’s occurred to me that I should occasionally use that large viewership to spread the word about other artists who might not get as much, or deserve more, recognition. I’m going to try and do this at least once a month, but I warn you that since I don’t get out of my little DA hole very often, not everyone I try to promote will be an “unknown.”

Just wanted to give a quick shout out to :iconzeknox: . If you aren't already reading his comics or looking at his art, you really should be. Not only is he a talented artist, but he's great at exaggerated expressions and has a series of new comics too. Take a peek, he's got a lot to offer.



:iconvickyviolet: is someone I've actually met a number of times at QC-Anime Zing! Aside from drawing a lot of fanart, she's also big into making merchandise and sketch cards which she sells at conventions. She even has her own group "Rainy Tale Studio."
:iconrainytalestudio:


:iconskyfinder: is an exceptionally talented young artist I recently got to meet over the summer when I was a teaching assistant for MCAD. What impressed me the most was her storytelling chops. I don't think I've ever met anyone so young who had such a firm and solid grasp of storytelling techniques.

Wow! I am quite honestly impressed! I was not expecting so many entries, especially with only a week to prepare for it! You've all done a fantastic job! It's going to be very hard to pick out the winner in this batch. 44 submissions in 7 days. That's pretty impressive everyone, and you all did a great job!

My plan now is to spend the next couple days looking over all your entries and making up my mind. Before I leave for London I will notify the winner and make a post about it. When I get to London I'll have the posters and books prepared and shipped to the winner.

In the meantime, I suggest taking a peek at all the wonderful artwork you guys did!

Thank you for posting the C.S. Lewis quote; I used it for a creative writing class assignment! :)

Also, I really love syac, it rings true for me a lot, and when school's out I'll visit this page again and spam with comments! :D But not literally spam >.>

I'd like to state that I think your comics/art would be a lot, well, for lack of a better word, better if you used a different style of shading. Like in your 3ds comics, or the comic about experimenting with different techniques (Sorry, I've forgotten the title).

I also believe you should add a bit more 'effort' into your comics. Not as much as the Big Ben image (Which, by the way, is a very good piece of artwork), but less simplistic.

I think more detail and a different shading technique would make for an overall more effective comic.

You should just troll everyone, and for about a day, change your username to something stupid, and then the next day change it back.
