(fan comic) The X-Files: Chrome-Magnon [pg 1-10/30]

With LJ's scrapbook as storage space I've finally decided to shut down my COLS (crappy old Lycos site) with its annoying ads, and move everything to LJ.

So, I was in the process of moving 'Chrome Magnon', the X-Files comic I drew ten years ago, when I realized that the scan quality really detracted from the artwork. I'm going to re-post the whole thing in shiny new quality. The resolution is pretty decent now, and each page still only around 150K.

This isn't a WIP, obviously, but I'm posting it 10 pages at a time so the posts won't get too huge. One thing: I'm always cool with concrit, only in this case... well, the thing is ten years old and with each glance I see a dozen things that I want to fix badly. But I won't touch it, because there'd be no stopping. And I like to think the important aspects, like story, storytelling, and layout, still stand the test of time (mostly).

Heh. You have no idea how happy this makes me. On the one hand, I can't help but look at artwork with a critical eye so all the flaws jump right at me; but on the other hand I'm still really fond of this baby. :)

Chrome-Magnon was my first comic. Well, before that I had started working on one, got a few pages in but it was very, very rocky. *nostalgic*
