OMFG!!!1 C0/\/\1X PWN J00!!!!!!11!!1one

Meh. And why haven't I been doodling like a good little aspiring artist? The answer is simple: work, school, and Unreal Tournament 2004.

However, I did manage to whip this one up while I was in the middle of my big, nine-page "No Resistance" comic strip (which I will post in this thread... if I ever get around to finishing it).

It's from the "Lazzy Slays The Wicked!" storyline (formerly 'Loki Slays The Wicked!'). That's Ashley (aka Aftiel) on the left and Lazarus (aka Lazzy, formerly Loki) on the right.

Enjoy my incoherent dialogue and crap skills with ink and photoshop 5. Ta... da? And by the way, it's a light red... not pink. Bah. Red vs Blue fans know what I'm talking about.

Yay! Finally more of your work!

Great stuff. I've gotta say, the incorparation of the "light red" really gives it a unique flair, instead of having simply black and white.

Also love your stylization of the hands.

Que bien! Muy bueno! How do you do it, SeaRex? How do you continue to be so ass-kickingly awesome? *sheds a tear for teh beauty of t3h c0m1l<*

Cute manga-riffic cat-eared girl, too. Those damn manga girls! They always get me, what with their extraneous animal parts, big shiny eyes and pouty faces!

First "No Resistance" comic. Page 1 of 9.

This one isn't very good... I penciled it way before my first LSTW comic. With any luck, I'll have four more pages posted by the end of the day. Just messing around; after all, this WAS my first attempt at a "major" comic strip.

Trust me, these will get a wee bit better as I go.

Ci-Ci and Chicago. Pencil, Ink, and touch-ups/lettering in Photoshop.

Getting better... pages 2 to 6 out of 9.

I originally hated page 5, but it's grown on me and is now my favorite so far. Hehehe... you can barely see my little "asshat" remark at the bottom of five.

*gasp* What has become of Ci-Ci? And why do these noodles make you sing cheesey folk songs? One of these questions will be answered on the next page, but you fools will just have to wait!

EDIT: Interesting. Page 6 is slightly "lighter" than all the others...

Wow! I should've looked at this thread earlier! The title threw me off.

Anyway, amazing work, SeaRex. I love your style. I think you and Dipstikk have the best art on the forums, when it comes to comic emotion. Great stuff!

My favorite character is ZEE DOOKTOR!

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'm hoping to hone my skills next year with several art classes.

Currently penciled pages 7 and 8... preparing to ink 7.

New work soon.

Oh because maybe I free lance in professional art. I have seen good comics and bad comics and great comics. And what this is, is of that professional look or at least close to it. I would have to look at a series of work to really make the determination. But as a free lancer and someone who is looking for talent at a professional level. SeaRex has that professional touch in the work. Now wether this comic would sell to the public, thats a different story all together. But by the looks of the work, SeaRex's comic art looks like it has that professional comic art touch to it. And its even better that its done in black and white with pen and ink as oppose to color. Pen and Ink takes a huge dagree of control and you SeaRex seem to keep everything nice and crisp and thats the result you want, that crispness in the work.

Wasabi... I liked him before I even knew his name, what he was, before he had an accent (odd that it's a Freudian German one when his name is a Japanese word), but now... he's my new hero. In a few short strips he has ranked himself among Squee, Black Mage, Piro, Largo, Dan, the Master Chief, Vexx, Zim, Dib... among heroes, these are, for me, the very highest rank. And now Wasabi is among them. He is undoubtedly one of the coolest characters I have ever seen.
See, it's only with characters like these that you can make six whole strips in which nothing but bad noodle cups, folk songs, and an attempted poisoning happen.

Hmm, speaking of the Chief, I really should catch up on the Halo 2 updates.

EDIT: Damn, always forget something. I just needed to say this: I'm hot like Wasabi when I bust rhymes. I'm sure someone will get it.

Damn you, Raisin. You just inadvertently stole the magic from one of Ci-Ci's ramblings on page seven.

You'll see.

LOL. I am very good at stealing magic from things. I constantly piss my friends off, disbunking their cool theories and telling them why God doesn't exist, and how we evolved from ape-like ancestors, and how Saddam Hussein drained the fertile marshland believed to be the area in which the real Garden of Eden once existed. Wow... if I ever got famous, a lot of people would hate me. I'm so slick, I'm Crisco.

But surely art is all about opinion, so nothing could be defined as either good or bad. *stabs*

First of all your right art is defined by opinion and my opinion towards the work is very good. Secondly if a good opinion made by a professional artist who works in the field and gives his honest opinion then that opinion is what counts. I am a professional freelance artist in Illustration I free lance work to clients all the time and now I am doing freelance work for Spectrum. On top of that I just currently made a deal with a local business. They want me to do three designs, original work by me for their company. So don't sit there and say that I don't know what the **** I am talking about because I do know what I am talking about when it comes to professional art and design thankyou very much!
