I was sketching yesterday, under the heat, and ended up revamping Spike a little. I really like the end result and I feel my art is really evolving since I started to draw in 2008.
Now, the dilemma, current storyline:
The Fools are now a Long Form Comic and the current story may end up having 45-50 pages. My first feeling is to wait until the end of the story before applying the new design. Well, that is, IF Spike returns under his human form, of course
What do you think? In the past, it was easy to switch design as I was improving my art, I was doing short gags or stories.
Since I am planning a book for early 2011 and The current story will be the main story of the book, I still feel I shouldn’t change the style/design in the middle of it.
What do you think? What should I do?
Oh and… what do you think of the new design? lol

Cheers!
Antoine




Spike has evolved a lot since the beginning, and this is definitely another evolution in Spike….not the evolution we saw in the last few strips Thankfully….poor, poor stubby. I like it, the chin is more pronounced and the over all look is some subtle changes but pronounced enough changes to catch my attention. Looks really good Antoine.
Thanks a bunch!
What I like is, while evovling enough to notice the difference, it’s keeping a cartoonish feel and makes a good transition, well in my opinion
Yeah, I like how you’ve set off the chin so it’s not just one line anymore. Does have a more “human” look to it while retaining the cartoon aspects. Nice job! It’s hard to make changes as you don’t want to make them too drastic.
