I agree with Fernando. Tattoos, shaved hair, also pregnancy..big turn-offs.

Ok, I don't usually say no outright when there's a chance, but that 'girl' sports two of the least sexy features on a female for me -- tattoos and a skin head. So I'm sorry, no, you won't be seeing anything resembling that girl from me. Even if I did like tattoos I wouldn't t@rture myself drawing that!

Okay .

I was very pleased with DV III and I'm eager to see what you'll bring us next.

Please make sure that you still use much texts in your comics - the story of each comic is important (besides your great drawings of course).

Hi, Fernando!

A suggestion from me:

Could you bring a girl like Jack from Mass Effect 2 in one of your next comics (but with greater tits)?

It would be the most painful thing to draw a tattoo that intricate over and over and over again in every frame for 40 pages.

It makes my head hurt thinking about it.

On a side note, Fernando. Any chance of more goth-y chicks? Seeing Clara get it was pretty much the high point of the comic reading career.

An interesting comparison to my own art-form actually. I'm a CG artist, so tattoos are something often used to give life to a character's skin. It's not such a big deal in Mass Effect because they only had to draw the entire tattoo once.
It's not all roses though. Comic illustrators are able to be more compulsive. To be efficient on a computer, I have to plan every single asset I'm going to make. Nothing can "come for free" in terms of one shot deals.

I like tattoos in principle, but am very picky about them in practice. On women, they need to be small, delicate and feminine, and placed somewhere sexy.

Or, contrarily, they can be slave markings of some kind - a number, a symbol - in some specific place, reminding the girl and everyone else of her owned status.

Maybe Clara being forced to do it with another goth girl? I'll think of something...

You the man.

You just described Gore to a T. Said fiction features exactly what you've mentioned. AKA a far more painful version. Fair warning though, said books are mostly a case of quantity above quality. (At least in terms of overall narrative refinement and dialogue.) I'd only recommend a small handful if reading satisfies your fetishes.

Better than nothing!

Yeah, as part of the story I'd use it.

I actually prefer small piercings to small tattoos, though I most prefer none at all.
