I've been reading the comic since Chapter 1 (I came in when it was almost finished) and loved every moment. It's easy to focus on the visuals, which after all are quite stunning, but the truth is that what's keeping me there is the strong storytelling, excellent characters, and a good sense for when to step outside the typical tropes of the genre and when not to do so. I've recommended it to every scifi geek I know, and what it taught me about visuals led to my first art sale.
An awesome series of memories with some awesomely haunting music to go with it.
It's hard to make characters work in CGI, the difference between detail and subtle effect is so hard, but there are so many many complete winning scenes that you chose and placed here, some with newish special effects. I do like this compilation. Well done!
I've only recently gotten into Crimson Dark, although I've known about it for ages - what an idiot! I now have no free time whatever because I can't ... stop ... clicking 'next page' ...
Liked the way the characters were drawn in the first few pages, with the thick outlines. Made it more comic like. Didn't look as good on the spaceships though.
Also, stop telling me Whisper isn't made of fleshy stuff...
besides that I'm loving your artworks, now, after I saw video two of you, I come to think that you have a very good hand for chosing the right music too :D
To be honest I only started reading it about a week ago and I couldn't stop reading it until I caught up and now I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapter.
*cries* I was certain that I commented here with my support but I don't see any comments from me. Anyhow, congratulations man, and this viewer will check in every update.
Crimson Dark rocks! David, you have a gift for both great storytelling and great visual art. I can't wait to see where you take it (and us) in the years to come!
I love love this webcomic, and I am glad that you stuck with it for 2 years. I am a big fan of this, and even if you update once a week, I don't mind, I love this story and I will wait for however long it takes. Beyond just the visual art(which is amazing) I love the story, the characters, it is just amazing and well paced and well put together. I wish you all the best
Keep up the great work! I've been a fan almost since day one. You've got an incredibly engrossing story-line and terrific art to rival even those who call themselves "professionals."
Nicely done and best of luck in all your endeavors!
I love your work, and the quality is just amazing, as well as consistent. The speed is not so important to me, or I think us, as the world you make is so well crafted.
I read it every week, and wish it was a daily, but I can recognize the amount of work it must take to generate each page, and am awed by your dedication, skill, and ability to also maintain an engrossing storyline. Thanks for the free ice cream!
Nice vid man..And nice comic aswell ofc.. Sometimes i wish you'd update more often, but then i guess, this helps on keeping us all on our toes every monday waiting anxiously for the next strip :)
Of the twenty something web-comics I keep up on (yes I am that OCD!) this is one of the best I've come across. Thanks so much for sharing David, keep up the solid work.
I've always enjoyed your comic, and Lisa Gerrard's a great accompaniment for your visuals! Classy and understated, like Homeworld or some of the best moments in Firefly.
