Well, while I was gone, I managed to buy MMI for £5.00 (it should have cost $25.00) and read it several times through like a madman.

I was hoping we could discuss it.


And the poll is just something i'm interested in.

it's the line drawings for me, but i was hoping he'd do some more watercolour stuff for MMI. Alas, maybe next time. :roll:

I think the 3D stuff is better. I dunno why, just seems more GiTSy.

I have to admit the e-space/cyberspace/whatever scenes look good in cg, but that's only to be expected as it fits the concept so well. I just prefer the sense of movement that the line art can convey, as opposed to the cg work where a lot of characters just seem to float about(although alot of the time they are doing just that anyway ;) ).

...and my beloved watercolour artwork had such an impressive range of colour and worked so well within the backgrounds. ...Just me being a grumpy traditionalist tbh :P

One thing I like doing is reading just the origional work, without any of the colour drawings.

It makes even less sense ;_;

I love the color artwork. Though I have seen some very nice line drawings. color seems to add to the story.
