sword chucks: check
No avatar: check
webcomic with stick people: check

Using a complex formula I've created, I've decided to not even click on the links you've provided. I'm just going to assume it's bad and not worth my time.

i take you guys didnt like it?

Cloud Strife 11-22-2004 02:27 PM

Yeah, to be completely honest. No real plot at all. Work on the plot, work on some sort of characters that actually have a background, work on better graphics, ie not stick figures, and then I might like it. Don't take this coldly, I'm giving you suggestions here.

master of sword chucks 11-22-2004 02:31 PM

there is a plot.it just hadsnt devolped yet.also i'm only 13 give me a brake!

I'll be perfectly honest with you:

These are crap.

And listen, I turned 13 about 2 weeks ago, and I can pull better comics out of my ass during a stomach flu.

It is blatantly obvious to me that you put 0 effort into this comic.

Furthermore, learn to draw, or at least sprite.

Ouch. Those are.... not... good... You see, I even make this one hand-drawn matrix style shootemup kinda stick figure comic. But even I can pull off better crap than that. I believe you made these in a span of at the most one minute. I'm sorry to criticize you so, but these just... suck.
:bmage: HADOKEN upon your comics!!

Now now, let's not be to hasty.

I read through the comic, and concur that I am not entirely entertained.

I have two main criticizms:

1. the colour scheme: Bright lime green, hot pink and other such flagrant colours have a tendancy to imediatelly put people off. If a comic is hard to look at, peole won't want to read it. I suggest using toned down colours like dark blue, purple, dark green and black, maybe even a dark red that doesn't assault the eyes. Yes you want to catch the readers attention, but you don't want to overpower their senses.

2. The humour/plot. Random violence isn't funny on its own. It needs some sort of smart lead up to it. Random violence is the punchline, not the joke itself. Work on your material and try that. Hell, you don't even need a full plot line for a comic, to just have a bunch of random funny ideas that have no bearing on each other works quite well for most comics. When was the last Far Side you've seen that was based on the last comic?

I also notice some "stick bashing" here. Need I remind you all that I too make stick comics, and recieve praise for such, especially you, Kardin. Stick figures are like any other comic: they work well if they have a good animator. This isn't saying that you have to be able to draw good to make a good comic, you merely need a good sense of humor.

Take Rob Lewis' Stickdeath.com for example. Not much in the way of artistic talent, but his stick figure Flash cartoons are some of the funniest random violence cartoons on the net.

Hope this is helpful. Keep on truckin'

What he said. Sorry for the unnecessary criticizm.
:fighter: They use swordchucks too!!
