Comic Contest #1 POLL

[Lord_T]

Well, It is their faults that their entries weren't as lul-worthy.

 

[Pyritie]

Alrighty, judging and calculating done. Now just wait for Hawkwing to make the results thread.

 

[kewlthis]

Well, It is their faults that their entries weren't as lul-worthy.

agreed. If people make something (even tought it might be low artistic quality) It still should be accepted. I think that comid had great story and thats what matters the most. I quess its pretty much pointless at this point to whine, but ill do it anyway. Its not like other peoples creations were drawn well.

 

[Mr.Goblin]

Dude?!! some of the drawing i saw were really really well made.. and pretty funny

Its not like other peoples creations were drawn well.

i think each members had their style .. what makes this contest really cool..

so to what you just said.

yep, that's true and that's why i think the judging will be... hard to welcome =/

 

[SuperCow]

i agree with lightblood and mr. goblin

The judging goes as follows.

# Colour - 4/5

# Storyline - 5/10

Good art work, could have been better...Storyline and creativity is not the strongest suit of this comic. Naruto is an over done cliche.

The Silent

36

The art work was well made, and the concept was excellent. But the story line lacked something in the dialogue, it could have been made more exciting, and a little bit more clear I think. As for creativity...naruto.

I enjoyed your comic greatly ^^ The art was superb, (aside from some minor proportion problems and such) and the dialogue was actually interesting to read. Also, the little easter eggs are a plus. The creativity was excellent, and DID NOT! feature naruto, which is a good thing. The lack of colour hurt your score I am afraid, but so far, this is looking to be an excellent comic.

Light Blood

# Storyline - 6/10

38

Your comic is one of the better ones I have seen, the artwork suffered in a few places and thrived in others. The expressions on the characters faces were excellent, and the Greek god Ralle was a nice touch. The dialogue suffered in the beginning, and was rather boring, but as I read further it got progressively better, as the dialogue became more exciting, and the action picked up. The end of the comic was especially well done. The only suffering I saw, was a lack of colour, it still has colour, but it is mostly cold colours, and not very vibrant, aside from a few frames, where the colours are excellent, but the art is still a little off.

The best part of this comic, was that it actually made me smile, and that is a bonus.

34

The art was lovely, the colours were vibrant, and the only fault I found was that the art was a little messy, and a few frames were not coloured at all. The dialogue was rather boring...but it wasn't too bad. The creativity was a good point, and the lack of Naruto made it especially so.

Super Cow

32

The artwork was rather...kiddish...and the technique was also rather..kiddish. The colours were vibrant of course, and that is the comic's stronger point, and while the dialogue was not exceptionally brilliant, the theme did make me smile, and that is a good thing.

The art was lovely, and the technique was exceptional. The dialogue was a little boring, but over all it was excellent, and the ending made me smile, which is good. The easter eggs are also a plus, and the lack of Naruto and the inclusion of a different theme made it creative. Over all this is one of the best comics in this entire contest.

The art was refreshingly cute, and the expressions were well made. The technique was also excellent. The colour...not alot. The creativity was nice, one of its stronger points, and the dialogue while a little boring and long winded, was at best, a good read, at worst, boring but well produced. Think "Charles Dickens".

Air Head

38

The appearance, technique, and colour of the comic were rather mediocre. But the plus side of the art was the use of rep gems as space craft, this was a touch of genius. The story line was lovely, and the dialogue didn't bore me, and infact, I liked the little nods to several famous creations such as "Startrek, Starwars, and Hitchikers guide to the Galaxy."

I am delighted to inform you that I liked your comic! GOOD LUUUCK!

The comic could have been made better overall. A good attempt, but sadly does not reach the quality I had expected in this comic contest. It looks as though it were made in paint, and if so, I suggest using "The GIMP" or "Paint.net", and the storyline...I didn't really get it at all.

Better luck next time I suppose ^^

The art was a bit too simple for my tastes, and the colour was very...absent. The story line was rather good, and the dialogue was not boring, but it didn't excite me either. I did however, like the little touch you added with the world wide web talking zoomed out. A good comic, but it could have been better.

What can I say...its brilliant. The art is well made, (and with a mouse! HOLY MOUSE JESUS!) the technique was exceptional, and the expressions priceless. The art could have been better, but so far it is the best one I have seen so far. The colours were vibrant, the lighting was great, and the mood was set to perfection. The story line was not exactly "funny" but the monologue with its poetic rhyme and nod to "A night before Christmas" was both creative, and inspiring. The creativity was also exceptional, showing the current HIVE situation in a serious yet enjoyable light. And as always, it is a pleasure to see your work. And of course, since this is hand made, you are now included amongst those of HIVE comic history (the good side of it).

25

The comic is a bit too simple I think...and the story line is not exactly...there. Though I did find it relatively creative, as it did not feature any of the cliche stuff other comics displayed. But sadly...creativity is only a thing of which a medium is required to portray, and your comic does not have the same level of brilliance that others have.

Good luck next time though ^^

• Colour - 4/5
• Creativity - 6/10

• I like how the first panel looks, but as the comic goes on, the quality starts to slide. Also your theme wasn't really that original: naruto guy with bad grammar, annoys mods, gets banned. Nothing really special.

• Storyline is quite hard to follow, and not just because you didn't finish. Some of the characters are unclear as well, as you noticed people had to ask who some characters were.

• The storyline makes no sense. Sorry, but it does. Some guy gets kicked out for no reason, pulls a sword out of nowhere and suddenly he's in the arena? And then banned for no reason? A lot is missing.

• The quality of the frames is inconsistent. Some frames have some sort of shading, others are just solid color, and two of them are just lines. Your storyline isn't the best (and doesn't make much sense) but at least it's easier to follow.

Mr.Goblin

• Colour - 5/5

• The way you portray your characters is appropriate for a comic, and your storyline is easy to follow. We don't really know why the keeper of the grove guy is doing... whatever it is he's doing... to Mr Goblin but at least it sorta fits.

• Storyline - 8/10
• Despite how your characters are (almost) all stick figures, you still manage to portray their expressions very well. The storyline's a bit "uhh" at times but it keeps you interested. It's pretty easy to follow as well, and is a situation most of us are familiar with.

• As you noticed, you had to revise your comic several times in order to make it more clear. I see you tried to take the concept of "some guy posts a model and then gets comment spam" but turned it into some spaceship thing...? Was quite unclear.

• The quality of your character wasn't all that great. The storyline was simple but effective and the rhyming that went along kept the rhythm and "flow" going. The bit at the end had a bit of humour too, which was nice touch.
