The top of the floating castle is a paste of a 3D lego snowspeeder model. He's taken off the cockpit and some of the extra pieces along the guns, but it's definitely the same model, just stuck on top of another thing he probably got in a random 3D model pack.

You can see where the guns are clipping through whatever he stuck it on.

It's cheap and fast to block out stuff in a 3D program, take a screenshot, and then trace over it in an editing program.

Pretty much everything in the OP image is just a 3D model with a filter on it, sans the characters themselves and the stuff outside the door. Pretty sure the secondary girl has actually been drawn around her phone with how uniform the buttons look.
>>
>>54031912
It's simple actually.
They enjoyed thousands of years of peace, thanks to the warp storms that encircled them, and also disturbed time, meaning when only a few thousand years went by in the galaxy, the Tau were at peace and alone to prosper for more than 10k year if I remember correctly.
Imagine if the Imperium was completely at peace for that amount of time. No chaos, no xeno, nothing.

If you people had any idea how much job in how little time Marvel and the other big american comics companies require from their artists, you would understand that copying is almost needed most of the time. If they had to do everything completely out of their own fantasy they would never be able to keep up in first place. Marvel and DC don not care that their artists produce actual art, they just want them to work fast: either you adjust or you lose your job.

The complete lack of either skill, dedication, or simply time that is evident from American comics continues to amaze and horrify me.

It's a visual medium. I really don't understand how anyone could be OK with this level of incompetence as a rule. And it's not like there aren't any American comics with decent art. There are. They're just completely lost under the blanket of mass produced crap, and generally only count as hipster niche products.

But the disgusting porn I fap to has more artistic fidelity than the average American comic.
>>
>>54032779
Most of these are pretty egregious but some of them are just the artist using references.
>>
>>54032333
Not been funny man but neither Greg Land nor Mike Deodato are new to the industry. You can still go find art by Rocafort, Christian Ward, etc running now as well - it's not something that happened to comics recently, it's just that artists cut corners to save time and make money. Shit look at Bob Kane.

The comics industry is also niche as hell (and subject to massive piracy) so people really don't earn money in it. You'd have to be an absolute premium artist - the kind that don't really exist anymore, but Todd Macfarlane/Liefeld era (Deodato kind of rode in with those guys in terms of his big runs, like his WW run) - to make a lot of money on a slow book. And those artists exist, there are some who'll do it and get contract for it, but everyone is encouraged to rush to make a living now. And sometimes even good art is ruined by the colouring choices, or vice versa, because a comic book is actually 4 or 5 people scrabbling to make everything fit in time for printing.

Great new artist on DC/Marvel properties for me would be Bilquis Evely. Her art is very very good and she seems capable of hitting the monthly schedule.
>>
>>54032834
There are definitely big American comics (meaning Marvel, DC, Image) being published with good art. Shit often Image is just a good artist being thrown around with a mediocre script.

>millennials shocked to find comic artists trace porn "these days"

Comic artists have been tracing porn for decades. It's just that prior to the existence of the Internet, unless you owned a copy of the specific porn magazine that it was traced from, you wouldn't know for sure, and even if you did, you wouldn't be able to easily share the knowledge with others.

Back in the early 90s, Wizard magazine did an article on the prevalence of tracing in comics. A lot of Marvel art was traced from Image Comics.
>>
>>54032834
I think it's mostly just the Big Two (Marvel and DC) who churn shit out like this. They've got a core of very rabid fans who will buy anything they set out to keep up with the story.

Other IPs and publishers actually have to hold onto their readers so they can't get away with this tripe.

Greg Land.
>>
>>54032146
>Why the fuck did they do this?
There is one, and only one, rule for making art for a syndication comic product:

It must. Be done. On time.

That's it. That's the entire thing. After the writers, editors, and everyone else gets time to mess around with an issue, there's very little left of the weekly/monthly period to churn out the actual pictures. So the chief requirement for the artists is simply to be able to work to schedule, week in week out. So basically all of them use shitty practices, simply because it's faster.
>>
>>54031912
No but there's ton of hints of the Imperials losing a bunch of ships to the sector (One in the HH and the other fleet that was sent in to observe the species in the original fluff) so its not that wild of a guess that the Tau simply found the remains of these ships in their planet and learned from them, eventually reverse engineered them to aid in their technological progress while they were caught in the warp storm.

>>
>>54032892
Once upon a time, Greg Land used to know how to draw and he was a solid house artist. He started getting lazy right around the time he was the lead artist on BoP.

Same goes for a lot of the lazier artists these days, like you said. Salvador Larocca is another bad offender who used to actually draw back in the day.

Just came here from the board where one normally discusses comics, and yes because I don't play 40k.

I do have considerable experience with DAZ models though and enjoy finding examples where artists trace them.
>>
>>54032834
American comics are produced like TV shows and movies. Media created by suits.

You won't see that kind of shit as often in European and Japanese comics, because those comics are typically planned out by the creators themselves.

>>54034462
>Like the time Magneto was drawn over the king of Spain and the Spanish royal family threw a shitfit.

Tracing the royal portrait and headswapping wasn't the problem. It was the artist's idiot decision to reproduce all the medallions and ribbons on the King's suit -- one of which not only denotes "King of Spain," but by wearing it technically MAKES you the King of Spain (the way crowns used to). Juan Carlos removed it from his suit and pinned it on his son Felipe when he abdicated the throne a few years back. Also, you'd be surprised how much legal protection those kinds of things have in terms of reproduction and usage, and at this point Marvel can't afford to lose a foreign market.

No, they're trying to go after the SJW market, reasonably thinking that it's growing, while the rational people market is shrinking. They want buyers, they just don't want you.

Ok, that seems about right.

That panel is a deliberate mocking of Bill Willingham though. This is what I really struggle with. Do I think Marvel comics is in a really bad place right now? Yes, absolutely.

Do the majority of people bitching about that on 4chan have anything other than out-of-context panels when they argue that? No. Angela Queen of Hel was a bad comic, but that was put in it to make fun of a moment in the Fables comic.

It's just exhausting to try and argue this out honestly. Marvel definitely have pandered and hard to a particular kind of market, like the Boom! Studios market, that doesn't seem to exist for them in numbers. But that's overall only part of a decline caused by complete disregard for the customer base, SJW or not, and a real lack of talent or any kind of editorial control and vision whatsoever from the top down.

Not everyone argues that "SJW is the reason Marvel sucks". Some do, but not everyone.

Still, virtue signaling SJW pandering is one of the factors contributing to it.

>Do the majority of people bitching about that on 4chan have anything other than out-of-context panels when they argue that?
I honestly don't understand this argument. It's 4chan, we can post max 1 pic to complement our post. I mean, I could post the whole Issue #3 of Mockingbird to illustrate the same point, but it would look like spam.

I'd say this is a pretty cut and dry case, but American copyright law is pretty much "whoever can throw money at the case for long enough until the other side goes bankrupt is declared the rightful owner of the assets".

Every company would do what disney is doing if they were in disney's place, that's why megacorporations shouldn't be allowed to form, they literally become more powerful than many countries.

The story was shit and the ending made no sense and nullified the most important sacrifice, but the art of the main series was great.
The thing it did right was how it turned Darkseid into the very idea of evil he was meant to portray. His very presence sent Earth to a time/space sink and fucked everything up royally. He really became the God of Evil...
...Then they fucked it up by having a vampire Monitor as the true big bad...

Grant Morrison completely missed the point on Darkseid. Darkseid is Tyranny, in all its forms, not Evil. He also shit the bed with the rest of the New Gods but can't be blamed for the sorry state they were in at the time of writing.

Devil Dinosaur gets involved in some ancient caveman magic and gets brought to the present, where he befriends a little black girl. Now there's a joke about monkeys and black people you could make here, but surprisingly for current Marvel they still went with it.
>>
>>54032339
believe it or not, that's not actually /pol/aid, it's true.

for a bit Marvel has been hiring artists and writers based solely on their race, especially for the "diversity" comics. The "America" comic's writer was chosen specifically because she was some lgbtqpa "puerto rican" for example.

Riri is apparently based on Bendis's own black daughter. And there was that muslim guy on X-men gold, specifically because he was.

sometimes, the kool-aid is real.
>>
>>54042547
Why would anyone call themselves "Riri"? That's like naming yourself "Tardo"

Isn't Moon Girl the one who bitched about not being able to vote despite being "the smartest person in the world" (implying that intelligence=wisdom/emotional maturity, which no eight-year-old has)?
>>
>>54042547
Also, the guy writing Black Panther (iirc) was chosen because he was black and hated that fact. He left Marvel for DC and refused to accept work until they offered a non-black book
>>
>>54042775
>if only we let preteens and teens vote, they're obviously smarter than all those old conservative fogies, amirite
>>
>>54042750
She was named smartest person on Earth, and Reed hasn't been on Earth since 2013.
>>
>>54042802
Complaining about 8-year-olds (or however old she is) not being able to vote seems like a perfectly acceptable thing for an 8-year old to think
>>
>>54042775
She may be smart, but she's really lacking in morals. Like she's a few steps away from going evil mad scientist on everyone and it wouldn't even be all that surprising. Actually it would be pretty damn interesting to read happen....but it's not gonna happen. And that's terrible.
>>
>>54042825
Okay, fair enough. Still doesn't explain why she's suddenly smarter than Hank fucking Pym, Tony fucking Stark, Bruce fucking Banner, Amadeus fucking Cho, Peter fucking Parker, and T' fucking Challa.
>>
>>54042833
>Complaining about 8-year-olds (or however old she is) not being able to vote seems like a perfectly acceptable thing for an 8-year old to think

Whatever happened to Amadeus Cho? He was the last 'Smartest guy on earth'.

>>54042858

At this point I think 'Smartest guy on earth' is like the WWE champion belt. People pass it about and drop it to other guys all the time.
>>
>>54042845
I'd love all these "inclusive representation" characters much more if they were allowed to have flaws and fuckups just like the rest. Not flaws like "she's cutely awkward in certain social situations", but like actual flaws. Like, Reed Richards or Tony Stark level flaws.
>>
>>54042771
They wuz kangs, after all

>>54042858
Hank wasn't on Earth either, and Peter has never been one of the smartest. A genius, and definitely up there, for sure, but not top ten.
>>54042877
Cho's now the Hulk. And he's always been 7th smartest on Earth.
>>
>>54042877
>Whatever happened to Amadeus Cho? He was the last 'Smartest guy on earth'.
Too male.

Serious answer: Turned into a Hulk. Yeah, really. The only guy who was the "hey, let's do something different this time and have an intelligence-based hero rather than a punch-stuff-in-face-based one" character, was turned, into a Hulk.
>>
>>54042877
I think he became a Hulk or something, but I completely lost track. Really unless there's some unsolvable equations being traded back and forth between the various geniuses all the "smartest on earth" stuff is mostly just shit-talking
>>
>>54042909
You're Cho too much credit. Yeah he was just a non-powered smart dude, and his stuff with Hercules was good, but he was still just a Rick Jones replacement

Yeah but he could've been much more

I know Pym and Reed had a massive bitchfit over each other at that point. Complete with 'Pym, I know more about Pym particles than you do'.

Because triggering Pym's inferiority complex never ends badly.
>>
>>54042950
There's Bendis

So... yeah, Jew or not, it'd be better without him honestly
>>
>>54042930
I personally liked the fact that Cho had intellect as his main trait. It's just a pretty rare sight in cape comics and I enjoyed that. I liked DC's Oracle, too, pre-Nu52.

Yeah, being a fan of intellectual heroes is suffering
>>
>>54042984
Honestly Bendis at least has a long history in the industry and understands american comics. The new wave of SJW writers are the cancer.

Complaining about Bendis seems so petty and 2005ish,
>>
>>54043010
Cho being the Hulk's fine. Gamma radiation in Marvel, when it makes people into Hulks, tend to change them into what their desire is. See: Bruce and his rage issues, Jen wanting to be more confident, Samson wanting to be special, Ross wanting to be a leader, Rick wanting to be serious, Leader wanting to be smarter. In this case, Amadeus wants to be more cocky and strong like Herc. Now the fact that Totally Awesome Hulk hasn't been good since issue 10 is something to complain about
>>
Can we make this a thread where we gush about how much better the MCU and the DCAU are compared to there respective comics.

>>54043059

God dammit. When I was taught to use Sketchup to do backgrounds and get angles right, I made sure to actually create what I was using.

God damn hacks need to "save time" and get a page done quicker because they're paid $100 per page, aka shit. So they resort to stealing this shit that looks sci-fi and cool. God damn, It make me glad I've only held on to my older comics. When things weren't perfect, but god dammit the only tracing happening was the inker doing his fucking job.

Kirby wasn't perfect, but god damn he had emotion and motion in his art. George Perez is a fucking legend and seeing him work was awesome. That's why these artists perfect faces and specific poses nowadays, because that's all they need to do at conventions where they make their real money.

It's even worse when it stands out so differently from the rest of the art. The line work on the Tau piece, the obvious snow speeder tracing >>54032126 , they stand out because they have such different penciling and inking, and fuck this gay earth >>54032287 .

The reason it's niche as hell is because the industry is utterly fucked by left wing politics. Tell me how this makes any sense

>Replace 1 of them with a woman who screams about feminism
>Replace another with a black girl
>Continue to release books about progress left wing politics without any compelling characters because everyone is preachy as hell.

The reason comics are niche now is because both marvel and DC drank the cool aid. Had they simply made comics about the movie universe (maybe throw in a 1 liner to reference a previous adventure or an artifact they collected in the comic is in the background) and you will print money.

Nope, I've still got plenty after the Plague of Frogs arc. We got even more Ogdru Hem creatures popping up everywhere, like the one in Russia that was controlling the dead to build a lair for itself. The one in the midwestern U.S morphing people into the monsters. Some crazy fuck in Ireland (Scotland?) made a cult and brought back the dead but this time for Rasputin. Oh and a vampire apocalypse short that was neat, but again was just a short.

All these potential end of the world scenarios are piling up and I'm losing interest in wanting to read more when nothing is really progressing.

jez.
I'm glad i only really read BRPD when bruttenholm was at the helm.
That weird Russian demon child thing, i wonder what happened to it.
either way it's more reason to stick to the main hellboy series.

So...the first story only? Kidding, kidding. I assume you also mean the chronologically earlier Hellboy stories.

>That weird Russian demon child thing, i wonder what happened to it.
Varvara gets loose and unleashes fallen angels to fight the monsters. Also, backstabbing.
>>
>>54044684
She pops up again too, and it's a whole book devoted to making sure she doesn't escape her prison while much of Russia is still teeming with the living dead.

Also the Russian SSS is run by a Frankenstein's monster man and is just plain awesome. He also gives Krauss his fancy suit that appears in Hellboy 2.

You mean the way they made Dredd gay and included Nigel Farage in their comics as a bad guy?
>>
>>54045351
Are you replying to >>54045174? 1) That was a story about a judge impersonator 2) Go back as far as you like and find me a Dredd that doesn't parody politicians. Goddamn you little bitch, you don't even read the shit you complain about.
>>
>>54045392
>Does a story on gay main character
>It was just an impersonator man!

Uh huh..
>>
>>54045414
It's a story about a gay fetish club where they dress up as judges. Jimping is illegal and the story ends with the main character (who is not Dredd) being busted for 5 years. There's another one where a dude falls for Dredd and ends up being subject to Pavlovian shock therapy, if that suits you better.

Honestly we have Lawless and Deadworld right now which are both top tier Dredd universe strips, and here's you being a cunt about a comic you don't read because it had a gay guy in it at one point. 2000AD ran Devlin Waugh strips for years, you fucking retard.

You're not alone, homie, you're not alone. Chaos! Comics were my jam back then, I was so excited by the news that Dynamite picked up the setting and was let down by the lackluster effort of their reboot. I think though that the license is going back up in a few years, maybe Brian Pulido can take back the rest of his creations when that happens.

>>54045414
Well, it was. Basically a Judge themed gay bar.

It's a total lie to put 2000AD in the same bracket as Marvel right now. If you have some other argument, feel free to make it.

Others have already shot down the gay thing but making Farage "a bad guy".

Come on the man is a complete chancer, a total cunt and nothing but a meme at this point.
Perfect for taking the piss out of.

Yeah and British comedy has never stepped away from taking the shit out of it's own politicians. Australian and British comedy have a lot less respect for people in office (Even people they support) than american comedy seems to.

The saddest shit ive seen in comics was that one GOOD ethnic character in Miss Marvel opened the floodgates for a tidal wave of absolute shit that completely missed the point of why one specific thing was good in the first place

Its weird the SJW pandering bullshit of today is almost exactly the same as the shitty antiheroes of the 90s

>>54043814
Do you legitimately believe this?

That comics today, as a whole, are niche only because they're "utterly fucked by left wing politics"?

Is this an accurate representation of your opinion?

Because it's super dumb and wrong, like, just straight up inaccurate to reality.

Pretty sure he is just an androgynous man.

They ruined Kamala too. But they keep pushing all the other awful pandering characters, and then wonder why they don't sell as much

>>54046517
Kamala worked because she was essentially the good old John Byrne "awkward teenage nerdy heroine" archetype with the numbers filed off. The ethnic part came as a bonus, not the main thing.

To be fair, Thor himself had a bit of jungle fever as well back in the day... in fact, I don't think he really cared for the color of mortal and supernatural women he romanced.

But yeah, the whole Femthor-Falcap thing felt very forced, and probably just meant for cheap "make republican pundits mad" publicity which essentially failed. Then there's a theory that Bendis just has a BLACKED fetish since he seems to push a black love interests onto every white heroine he gets his hands on. Knowing comic writers and their track record of inserting their fetishes into their work, it doesn't seem too implausible.

Look, I'm as anti-SJW as they come, I hate what current Marvel (and parts of current DC) have become – and I'm saying you're a fucking idiot. 2000AD isn't perfect, but it's the best non-serious action comic out there at the moment, and it's definitely not pandering to the SJW. So shut the fuck up.

Spain actually has worthwhile comics though as in not capeshit that sell more than (((marvel))) and Spanish artists are absolutely fantastic compared (((american))) ones, just because you can only read pre-pubescent power fantasies doesn't mean any normal adult can stomach them, like the rest of the (((american))) ''''''culture''''''

Its a running theme with the comic. Women.
And I'm not talking like "Ugh women" I'm just saying look at this >>54046837 was it really necessary to say the first human was gendered at all?


Its a small thing, the comic still does what it does well enough, its just that it really stands out and it bothers me to jump out of the comic going "fuck that was awkward."

Yeah I know, its just that its a recurring theme. Jokes, points and even characters. As I said, i don't really care about it THAT much, its just an annoying eyecatcher. As long as the story, the design and everything else is good what difference does it make.

I mean it has nothing on the absolute autism that is the comment section, now thats something I hate. Like holy fuck, giving random strangers the ability or idea that their writing can change things really shits things up.
