Have you scrolled too fast? Just see these messages:

First, these a-holes cannot draw a single straight line, making the scenes look like viewing through fisheye lens. Characters suffer from some terrible diseases. Diseases that e.g. result in people having feet size of new born babies yet the rest of the torso being like that of an 200 kg lard bag. Characters whose limbs look like made from a loose swine´s lard instead of bones and joints. Craharters that behave like drooling idiots escaped from a lunatic asylum. If this is "refreshment, fantasy, adventure", keep it to yourself. I don´t want to do anything with such sick scenery.

-Ferioli/Bernado predominatly feature scenes that look like viewed through fisheye lens?
-that the side characters of especially Bernado have ridiculously twisted body proportions (minuscule feet, yet ridiculous torsos)?
-that Bernado´s and Ferioli´s Mickey, Minnie and Goofy have proportionally at least 200% larger feet and hands compared to e.g. Gottfredson?
-that Ferioli´s characters appear to have no true knees, shoulners or elbows (instead the limbs bend like made from rubber)?
What is even more interesting, your beloved Gottfredson´s characters never suffered from the above. Just put a page of Bernado and Gottfredson side by side and see for yourself. They have nothing in common.
These messages have a lot of criticism on how Bernado and Ferioli draw proportions, and I understand that this must be very different from a "steady" artist like Floyd Gottfredson. It seems to be some new fashion, drawing weird art-work. For example, Carlos Mota draws panels in a slanted way, which might result in seasickness.
What I miss is a connection with Luciano Gatto and Giulio Chierchini. Pasoleati raised this topic about them, but mostly mentions other artists.

The same applies to Giulio Chierchini. I just love the work of these two guys!
Can you give examples?
