Default The Dork Arts - Guild Wars Comics

Bonjour tout le monde!... or Hello Everyone to you english speakers.

I am simply another one of those players who made comics about Guild Wars as a hobby. For a long time, I only made them for the members of the Happy Hellion Nation [HHN] Guild who were willing to go look at the Alliance's site I made. I haven't had a lot of feedback since barely anyone bothered to check out the site, but the few who did loved my art and encouraged me to do more. However I decided to make this thread after Robin Anadri, leader of Girl Power [GP], linked the Avatar of Sweetness comic here and told me I should present my other comics as well to share them with a greater audience.

My comics are only one-strip jokes, there are a few inside jokes slipped in a few, but usually most Guild Wars players get the main idea. Most of the comics revolve around my own characters since... well... I know myself better than anyone else and I usually get my ideas from what I do in the game, but from time to time I illustrate the misadventures of other players if they are willing to make a little story-telling to me.

I will not draw a comic about you no matter how detailed your idea is or add you in any strip as a cameo no matter how cool looking you think you are, unless you're a very close friend of mine. I only illustrate misadventures of Happy Hellions, close friends and sometimes of PUGS I barely know but with whom I had a great or agonizing gaming experience.

I cannot tell when I'll do my next comics, so if you like my comics, just bother checking for updates every 3-4 months or something like that. I have plenty of ideas for comics, but I can only make those when I have a few uneventful days to sit down, draw, scan, tweak, color and upload them. I might be able to make weekly comics some day, but that day is nowhere near yet.

The styles from the oldest and the newest are very different since at the beginning I hadn't made my mind on which style to keep, but the future ones will be like the fully colored ones, unless I get a request to draw a comic in a different style. Please don't ask who appears in the first few comics, I'll write their names at the bottom of each comic as I recall them.

Now that I'm done blabbering enjoy my comics!

Very nice! I love your drawing style, and you've managed to come up with interesting ideas for your comics. I think I like the black and white versions better (they somehow seem more... I dunno, like proper comic strips? They're more professional-like) but I can understand why colouring them might be the better choice.

Keep it up! I want to see more!
