I go back and forth with who I am as an artist all the time. I have these moments where I want to be super-high detailed like Jim Lee... and then I want to stick to my guns and be defined as a Bruce Timm/Jack Kirby type of artist.
I LOVE what I do. Nothing is more gratifying then working on the webstrips and comics and t-shirts... etc... etc... but when I try to be very detailed... I feel I try too hard and the art suffers... when I am being myself with my animated feel... it works. You often see the webstrip go back and forth. I almost expect fans to ask if 2 different artists work on them... LOL
You'll find that when I think about the art too hard, it suffers and when I don't, it looks great. Well after aq conversation with a well known comic artist today, I can tell you I will stop thinking about it and just do my thing.
Does this mean you guys will suffer?
HECK NO! You guys will make out like a bandit! It also will make Paul and Sue breath easier because when I'm not thinking too hard... I work better and faster.
Did this rant make sense to anyone?
