Okay, so I decided to draw a chart of different types of art styles from simplest to hardest. This, of course, does not just include the art styles shown. For instance, #2 also encompasses PPG's and most chibis.Anyway, I decided to use styles that I would most likely be able to replicate multiple times, but I left out more realistic styles since we clearly would not be capable of making a comic in those art styles.1. These are the art styles that are the simplest of the simple. They are easy to replicate, but are very difficult to show emotion in. I only use these types of styles for very humourous comics where the dialogue itself matters much more than the emotions, but I would never use it for a serious project in a million years.2. These styles are a bit more difficult to replicate, but allow you to express more emotions than would be allowed with #1. However, they would still not work too well for what we are planning.3. The star means that it's close to what we were originally planning on using. A much wider range of emotions can be expressed than with the previous two, and you can begin being able to indicate a character's age. It's more difficult to replicate, but the pros outweigh the cons. These would be the simplest styles that we could use.4. Slightly more complex than #3, but emotions can be expressed much more clearly. Subtle emotions can now be expressed as well, which will be extremely helpful in later scenes. Probably our best bet for an art style in general. Clothing wrinkles and hair strands are also now present.5. My personal choice for this comic, but it may be fairly difficult to replicate for some of the other artists. Because of that reason, I'd consider it out of the question.6. Just added in as an example. It's the most appealing of all the art styles on the chart, but would be needed only for a more serious comic. The complexity of it, however, basically just erases it from our options entirely.
