Thought Bubble: David Baldeon

David Baldeon is a comic book artist who has worked most famously on Marvel comics, including Ultimate Fantastic Four and X-Men: Legacy. His art combines just the right amount of detail with a cartoony, charactertured look with dynamic composition and and shot types.

Me and my brother attended this convention primarily  to gain feedback on our work, which is a 300 page screenplay (or script) we are developing into a comic.

Upon viewing our work, he said that there are slight things we could do to improve our anatomy skills,  but overall its worthy to be in comics. If its concept art for game its perfect already, but for comic art we need to work on pages as composition and page layout in sequential story telling are key. Working more on pages seemed to be his greatest advise, and if we wanted a company to pick up this project they would want to see how we visually tell a story.

I was flattered at this feedback as it was the best we've had thus far, and to be told that our illustrations and characters are of a professional standard was incredbile. I completely understand that if a company were to review this that they would want to see pages and layout, and as the next stage of our development was what we should do next it was truly fantastic to hear. I will however continue work on anatomy as it is common we hear this when I am having our work reviewed.
