[D] How you like me now?

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.


Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.


Concerns?


Navigate:

Hey! Do not post anything outside of these threads. It will be deleted.
Go be cute and fun and fun and funny over here.

Hahaha admittedly I did not look that closely at Iron Man. I started to read it thoughtfully but got bored and skimmed the rest. Land does the Iron Man armor really well, so maybe that's why I got that impression. The coloring throughout is good too. Looking at some images online again, yeah, his faces look really strange, especially for women.

His art doesn't look terrible overall, though? I'll admit to not being familiar with his past work, though (I'm a new-ish Marvel reader). Has he been really bad in the past?

If the Iron Man armor looks good, it's 'cause he traces movie stills, other artists, and freakin' cosplayers. For example: http://fuck-no-greg-land.tumblr.com/post/30076186339/anklewings-greatbriton

Guy's the biggest hack working in comics today, plus his porn traces of women go from regular old lazy into aggressively offensive sexism.

Oh. Oh wow, yeah, that's bad. That's downright shameless. I completely and gladly rescind my original comment about the art in Iron Man #1, then. o_o

It's common for people who are newish to comics and don't have any art training to take a little while to catch on to Land, because his work is superficially very polished.

A while back there was an artist recs thread, which I found through the magic of Google, blessed be its name. Anyway, here're some good artists to look into: http://rpanons.dreamwidth.org/14323.html?thread=46595059#cmt46595059

Yeah, it's definitely hard to catch on to at just a glance. I appreciate the help!

Thanks for the link! Love Paolo Rivera, David Aja, and Sara Pichelli. <3 Dexter Soy has grown on me, too, thanks to Captain Marvel. I didn't like his style at first, but now I find myself sad to not see his style in the book anymore.

Noooooooo problem. Friends don't let friends give money to Greg Land, especially when there are a million talented artists out there.
