Initial Research 12

I've been looking at comics/animations to see which type of art style would best suit the type of work I'm planning to produce.

Dragon age comics fit most into the stylization of western comics such as the Marvel and DC universe. This is similar to the style used in the game as it carries a sense of realism. The cover art is more similar to the in game styling as there is a softer feel to it and there are no harsh outlines. This style fits better with action and adventure comics as it is most often associated with super heroes and such.





Although there are panels which show movement, most of the panels look quite posed in this style ,in my opinion, which can harm the flow of the story.  
 
Studio Ghibli uses an Eastern manga and anime style in their animations, which differs quite a lot from the western style. It is a lot softer, and adds more of a fantasy feel to the work as it isn't so realistic. It can be quite simple, but is also extremely detailed in manga, some of the detail is lost in the animated versions as it needs to be animated, but there is still a very high level of detail, particularly in the backgrounds of Studio Ghibli Films, which differs from the western style( and they're all so well written and the art style is so beautiful omg)




Another Art style I reeeeeeeally like is Steven Universe as it fits the story line perfectly and is so cute and pretty and ahh
