Thanks for that comment, I take it as a compliment. The way I see my style, I appear to have four or five styles that I switch up constantly within each strip for effect. What I would like is to have a single main style of representation, or at least a single way of drawing myself, which people will become accustomed to. I think it will enhance the effect of the any other styles that I then throw in -- like when Bill Waterson used to occasionally make Calvin and Hobbes resemble a dramatic or super-hero comic -- but I don't yet feel confident enough doing any one style that I can keep it as clear and reliable as it would take.
I completely agree with the "don't worry about it" part of your comment, though; it's all just a matter of practice.
I don't think your style is all over the place. It's pretty consistent. Don't worry about it.
