I suddenly realized (im slow) that snout's snout has been shrinking and he now has about the same side profile as the Human/oid characters in the original Dominic Deegan. Also earlier in the comic mookie was actually drawing him with exaggerated expressions and more emotions than the soft humming of a microwave between his ears

How can anyone look at the way he draws crotches and think hes a good artist. I was cleaning today and found old naruto OCs I drew when i was 13 that have better grasp on anatomy and dynamic poses than anything in Legacy. Any good posing and anatomy he pulls off is because he traced a photo, but you can see his real skill in how he fills out the clothing, faces, and other features he cant just trace, its bad. Jesus. It doesnt even look like he references how fabric sits on a body he just wings it and it looks gross. Also that amazing city his character is so impressed by looks like a blueberry tart

for everyone that keeps saying mookie is a good/decent artist...hes been drawing these comics for twenty years and has barely improved at all. Thats not the mark of someone with genuine skill/talent, hes just barely above "dad who can draw stick figures" I have to kind of admire his perseverance though, if I dont see improvement in my own art over the course of one year I get depressed, to chug through 20 and keep going is some kind of inner strength

oriongates posted:He's improved, rather dramatically, compared to the stuff he produced in early Deegan. Anyone who doesn't see that is among those who're actively searching for things to get mad about, or who hasn't actually bothered to compare Mookie's decent pages with his older work. lol ok, you seem like you have a chip on your shoulder. Why are you so upset at people saying that Mookie isnt good? I've seen a lot of actual analysis and examples in here on why he isnt good, not just people being mean, and I havent seen anyone creeping on him or trying to get into his personal life. Saying its "creepy" that people are analyzing the art in a PIECE OF ART is weird as hell. People have been looking at the actual flaws in the art, both in the original DD and LoDD, and there is some weird stuff going on that people are speculating about. I'm not "putting a deadline" on him, I'm just used to seeing artists progress over time. While no, we dont know his personal life, usually when an artist fails to progress much its because they havent been doing art. Whats weird about Mookie is that he has been really consistently producing for 20 years, like no matter what is going on in his life he just keeps doing art, weekly, daily, etc. When someone is so consistently productive its weird to see so little change in a year, let alone 5, 10 or more. Its not about a "deadline" its about normal recognizable patterns. If a writer wrote for 2 decades consistently and you picked up a book and it was full of spelling and grammatical mistakes wouldnt you raise an eyebrow at it? The complexity thing has nothing to do with Mookie or his art. Even so though he doesnt really match up to your own definition of good skill? Hes super inconsistent in anatomy, scale, and matching his environments page to page, his perspective is a huge mess when he even bothers with it, and hes not really using his art well in a storytelling sense because hes not great with expressions, body language, conveying action, or the passage of time. His lines might be cleaner and poo poo, but I think he was actually doing a better job at conveying stuff when he was doing the original DD. Its extra odd because of how easy a lot of this stuff is to do, especially with the shortcuts he already takes. Are you saying this is "his style" and it is perfectly refined? Are you saying that he is creating poorly structured pages, muddy confusing environments, uncomfortable poses, and confusing passages on purpose? If he was drawing the same way but using that art to effectively convey his ideas then I would agree that it is just a style, but the fact that almost every time he posts a page theres questions about what exactly is going on, if he intended it to come across the way it does, or even where the characters are says a lot.

I wouldnt even mind mookie using tons of shortcuts if he actually got somewhere with it. Like, if he took video game screenshots and traced them he would be able to get multiple angles of a building's interior/exterior done accurately with proper human scale. It would genuinely provide a better product as long as hes already tracing. I think if your goal is to produce something, and you already dont mind tracing, then might as well? Hes taking lazy shortcuts and then being lazy with those too Ive never thought mookie was THE WORST terrible artist, I said before hes considerably better than like 80% of "professional" newspaper comic artists, who also draw daily for 40 years and never get better, but I would never call them or him a "good artist" and its weird to me any time someone freaks out over him being called bad/mediocre.

He does that often; he likes to draw the arms the same length as the torso so they end at the hips/crotch, but instead of just drawing short arms (he does that too) he lengthens out the torso

Well since to mook "no dialogue" means either no words or enormous dumps of text most of the non-text parts of the comic are just "deaf guy childishly reacts to surroundings" over and over

I think I missed something, IDK who this new person is or how/why they know what Snout wants/likes so well that they're comfortable just walking up and jamming a book into his hands are they the same person as here?  Its not beard-orc who came with them (i think), where is Ink Witch and why isnt she the one that knowingly puts stuff into Snout's hands? Shes been with him the longest time, shes the most likely to know what hes into/looking for.

To be fair to people back then (lol) The stonewater thing wasnt...that out of the ordinary for webmedia at the time was it? I remember being a girl online back then it was sort of hard to find any webcomics that appealed to me because they were a bit dominated by the 2000s gamer boy demographic so the market was pretty saturated in sexism, racism, homophobia, etc. Not defending mookie for doing it, but I can see how readers may not be that shocked by it considering the "market"

Rotten Red Rod posted:Ok I just looked back at the Keenspot forums for 1/25/2006 (the infamous strip), and... You don't need to be fair to them. The responses of the people in the forum are absolutely disgusting. Everyone thinks Stonewater is blameless. Some were actually making jokes about how long orcs last in bed. Virtually none were calling out Mookie for crafting such a bizarre, exploitative scenario all for the purposes of making a "heroic rapist". I think maybe the negative reaction came later after others processed the story alongside the constant backdrop of monkeycheese garbage. Oh well thats gross, I figured by "not calling him out" it was more indifference, which I could understand given the way media was then, than actually enjoying that storyline or agreeing with it. Early-mid 2000s online media spaces felt like an absolute hellscape if you werent a SWM

Lmaoing at some of the old edits in the thread but also wowza Snout looks like a completely different guy. His body has gotten much hairier and lumpier, while his face has gotten more "cute". Interesting trade off.

Rotten Red Rod posted:Also I hate his shoulder boils more and more every day. Snout is such a loving gross character design, the only part of him that's marginally acceptable is his face. Why everyone wants to When I went back and looked at earlier parts of the comic the shoulder boils were much smaller, more like freckles or little round scales, so I have to assume them growing means they're going to burst eventually

Wow, even obstacles he/we dont even know about get overcome in seconds with 0 effort. Is there ever going to be conflict in this story that Snout himself has to expend effort to overcome or is it just going to be "oh someone else already took care of this for you have fun"
