Thanks, Ebon Justice and Airhead, I hope to finish the first page "Soon.™" But I have to go mow the lawn and clean the house and do all the chores I've been putting off all week.

I look at it this way: We've got two years to kill. Plenty of time ^_^

Well, if I am accepted on the art team to do the comic, I would draw a year of comics in advance. It would allow a buffer just in case of emergencies, art the MWM could use for marketing promotions, web design, and loading screens, and could be leveraged with a publisher like Image to distribute a physical book to comic shops with no out of pocket expenses. Also the book could be used as an additional review stream and marketing for the game or any investors like NVIDIA, Alien Ware, or any other such gaming corporation who decides to back the project.

Actually, didn't Golden Girl make a cool comic that had a bunch of tutorial stuff?

An expansion on that idea could be fun, too.

[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Looking good Tiger (okay that sounds weird when I read it back in my head lol). I'm liking the sense of atmosphere in your panels.[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]
The third panel is a bit confusing to me visually though. The man outside appears to have a wavy elliptical disc over his head with a security camera perched on one end of it. Perhaps adjust it's position or darken it a bit to push it into the background a bit more (if that is your intent).
[/color][/b][/size][/font]
[color=#c95f02][b][size=15][font=Palatino Linotype]Also I might be completely wrong about this (I haven't read a lot of comics) but the small box in the lower right of a larger panel showing the same screen but closer to me usually is for zooming in to show more detail but it appears that time has passed since there is something different on the screen. If time has passed shouldn't it be in the next panel?
In other words I see it as the two news anchors are talking (probably about the copious amounts of rain) in the large piece and then one says something like "...and we take you now to live footage of the subway flooding in progress" and then the smaller box "happens."
[/color][/b][/size][/font]

Thank you for the input, I truly appreciate it, but I have to move on to the next page. You win some you lose some, and time is never in an artist's favor. :(

PS-Feel free to message me with your input, once the comic is done and I have time I'll rework some areas that need to be fixed. I'll use your input to help guide me. :)

Thanks, Steamtank, Fireheart, and Dee Dee. :) I finished the pencils for page 2 and I'll start laying in the flats today and hopefully (crosses fingers) will have the colors done by tomorrow. I'm speeding up so I apologize for any loss of detail. After this page is done it'll be a race to the finish. I hope to have the comic done by December. Here is a quick shot of the work in progress.

Actually, some are. :)
Thanks for dropping by, today was a slow day for me, it was a rainy day and my old bones don't like it although I found the rain and thunder inspiring. I'm still hammering out the process and trying to find a balance between traditional pencils, digital painting and photo manipulation to create as immersive of an environment as I can on a monthly basis, and to also highlight the future game's graphics. Or that's the plan...hopefully I can pull it off and merge comic-game-movie into one visual brand.
(Yeah, I said movie, I think Hollywood needs some good hero movies outside of DC & Marvel. *shrug* I can dream.)

The previous comment was mostly an excuse to bump this thread..... pretty sure I mentioned the timeframe to twigs when he got cracking on this... but he was sure it'd be done in time ;)

happy holidays, all... may the good cheer of the season interrupt all our carefully made plans .D

Page two is coming along. It is a challenge. I did take signs from Times Square and use them in the picture. Where else could you have Mary Poppins on one side of the street and the UFC on the other? :)

Awesome!

Awesome!

It's almost an allegory all by itself. The lovers are covered, supporting each other, while the angry man must make do with a garbage-bag hat...

There's so many small, cool details.

Be Well!

I'm trying to think of how

I'm trying to think of how Winter's Child might respond to that storm-system...

Would she be excited? Would she be a little frightened? Would she be peeved? Would she see it as a terrible thing, a glorious thing, a stupid thing? Would she be tempted, terribly tempted, to jump in, ride it, and make it go faster and bigger? Would she decide it was already too strong to let it continue? Would she consider it 'alive' in some way, or would she just see it as another dirty chore?

She would not forget her mission. She would not forget her purpose, to defend the City and the people that live there. She would not abandon her teammates. These things I do know. She would be... angered, that a villain would try to use it for his own purposes.

And I have a strong sense that this is going to be Awesome!

Be Well!

Element is pretty much what happens if jean grey (as phoenix) had storm's powers.

she's powerful, driven (to the point of being kinda creepy), and dedicated to stopping the storm to the point of dying to stop it.

I will try to convey their motivations as best I can. It is pretty straight forward but I'll try for nuance. I'm doing the rough pencils now.

Unfortunately it doesn't look like there are any art positions open or anything about a comic. That's very unfortunate I was looking forward to being a member of the team. *sigh* Oh well I'll finish up the comic and move on to my next project.
