Positively Dashing
If I ever get that fancy laser surgery that gives you perfect eyes, I’d still wear glasses. I just feel like they’re such a huge part of my identity that I couldn’t bring myself to get rid of them.
Plus, I look rather dashing in them.
lol crap gets in my eyes even with glasses.
I’m glad Ence is sticking with his glasses, he looks weird with Pupils after all this time.
It’s not the same Ence without glasses!
Hhhmmm…… He does look more dashing with glasses……
Come to think of it, if you showed the eyes behind the glasses, that might help them look less strange. In the other comics where you showed the eyes, they weren’t the same shape as the glasses, and that looked a lot less weird. Even on the 18th, the pupils didn’t look exceptionally odd, at least not compared to this strip.
Say a company invents clearer glasses? Perhaps Tina switched their prescription lenses with prank glasses long ago? Maybe they were using the wrong lens cleaner (Or… A prank lens cleaner! Man that would suck)? Or even (heh) an arc where they discover they’ve been cursed to have poor vision, and thus their glasses are perpetually foggy; possibly as an extension of the “big demon” arc? Just a few ideas – hope they help.
Forgot to mention: It would be really easy to link the last idea in with something about gaming.
In response, here’s a page from my sketchbook: http://twitpic.com/9zr7ej
You’re getting really good at drawing. The character’s expressions were pretty darn great in those sketches. I get the feeling the last big sketch was a sort of “ehh” toward the viewer though. xD Whatever you decide is fine. I just wanted to make a few suggestions.
If I ever ditch the specs, my friends won’t know who I am.
