Glad you like the strip. We work hard to make it entertaining.
The color version does look nice. It must have taken Clockwork Fox a great deal of care and effort to color.
For your information, as I create the greytone version of this in Photoshop, I am working with masks and layers to make future coloration easier.

Advice. Hmmm. In my own situation, I was just a person with the right skills in the right place at the right time. I knew several computer game programmers, and together we started a game company.
Computer game designers were desperate to find good artists when I started out. In the 1980's, most artists had never even seen a computer. Now art schools and colleges offer classes in computer art. There is a lot of competition to get artist jobs in the game field, at least in California. I have no idea how much computer game design is being done in France. It may be easier or harder.
If you are more interested in being a comic designer, I think you are in luck. It used to be hard to get your comics in front of an audience. Now, with the web, it is much easier. Many people are doing comics now.
Check out keenspot.com for examples of comic strips on the web. There are more sites like that, and a lot of people are putting comics on their own web pages.

I was also art director for Faery Tale Adventure: Halls of the Dead, and contributed to several other games put out by the Dreamers Guild.
Yes, I like the look of 2-D games too, but as technology has developed it has become more cost effective to create "sets" and "characters" in 3-D and then manipulate them. There is also a philosophy that 3-D enhances realistic action and a more flexible point of view and all that, which is a matter of taste.

Thanks. I've always been a big fan of comics. Now I get to make them! As art director on the original game, I didn't get to do much visible art. (Too busy designing, assigning, refining, etc). It's a real treat to be able to draw these guys from start to finish.
