Here's my second attempt at the Martians.

I'm maybe 90% happy with the cartooning.
I wanted more detail inside the ship, but found it too distracting.
I like science, but haven't read much on science fiction. I hope the gag isn't a cliche from the genre.
Constructive criticism: The sound effects in the first planel are hard to see since they are black text on dark blue background.
ReplyDeleteI like the aliens, their faces tell the whole story in this strip!
I think the cliches aren't a problem at all. Aliens are supposed to be green, and saucers are piloted using steering wheels. :-D
The gambling bit is a good thing to throw in to mix it up a bit, just like the rubber ducky consumer complaint.
Thanks for the kind words, ghostbuild. I agree the sound effects are hard to see- ah well, next time I'll remember. :)
