Morashills still reeling

Based

I get it, sometimes the faces seem a bit uncanny. But I think his earlier work, specifically on the Ric Grayson arc was pretty good for what it was. What's your issue with him, is it the "gayface" complaint I hear every so often?

Why do anons on this particular board not like his work? Is it something to do with the art itself. Or is it something to do with his personal political leanings?

It is lazy and ugly

Could you elaborate, what about it strikes as lazy and ugly for that matter? Is there another artist that you prefer or are familiar with that is better in your opinion?

>Linnea Sterte

>Mathias Bergara

>Tradd Moore

All his women are look like men with longer hair. Most of his men look alike. He doesn't draw backgrounds, he uses filters over pictures just like >>137018610 Jiminez another hack (Also Shaner his shills are also blind and aggressively defensive about).

Some pages look unfinished, he's a poor storyteller. The best thing consistently about him is how colorists choose to color his art.

I see, well thank you at the very least for articulating your criticisms.

NTA I wouldn't call it gayface. But desu the faces are too soft, almost slack-jawed. There isn't much energy in Travis' work. I'm not convinced the characters feel anything intensely or really seriously into battlemode, they all look like they're ready to model in a Macy's catalog. Not even smouldering sexy models in a perfume ad, I mean like a family Macy's catalog.



Some anon posted a sex scene that Travis drew in an indie comic, and there was nothing wrong with it on a technical level, but it just felt similarly bland. There wasn't any heat and passion conveyed. The fellas looked like they were spacing out in la-la land, they didn't seem engaged with each other.



But you're right the faces weren't so bad a few years ago. Travis' style has changed a bit for the worst.

I don't hate it, but I see him as the kind of artist who's alright, but leans in a lot of crutches.

He tries to produce as much work as possible and I think it shows with how rushed his linework is. 

Coloring/shading helps his linework a ton, which is very loose and sketchy. He's starting to use his basic similar poses and shortcuts as a crutch.
