Link to the topic and comic being discussed. Overused downtime joke is overused. Uhhh, not much to say here. With page 6 (or 12, depending on how you define a page) finished, I'm going to start on a guest comic for Bionicle Manga, one of the most ambitious hand-drawn comics in AIII. The art isn't necessarily the best, but it shows distinct signs of improvement from chapter 1 to chapter 4 and I admire his determination; refusing to give up even in the face of a horrid lack of replies or even
link to the topic and comic being discussed. Editing this thing was so frustrating. I scrunched up the first half of the page when I was erasing, then ripped the corner when I was trying to flatten it out again. Yes, the rip is still visible in p#6. I thought it looked like he cracked the wall, which was pretty funny. I had to edit it out in the doorway, because you can't crack the empty space between walls. The second half of the comic just wasn't working at all. The dialogue didn't flow, t
Link to the topic and comic being discussed blah blah Not a lot to say here. The first half of the page was exceptionally fun to draw and the second half was bugger all. p#8 was originally two panels but it was too restricting so I scrapped it and spliced in one panel afterwards. In p#3 I accidentally drew V's foot with a shoe instead of a boot like I did in page 1. I caught myself, but it was distressing nonetheless. The entire thing didn't come together as well as I had hoped. The panels
Link to the topic and comic being discussed. I hate panel 12 so much. Don't get me wrong: I'm fine with it as is now, but I kept trying to make Kakaru hit the rahkshi over the head with his staff and it just didn't flow or make sense. For one, the rahkshi is supposed to be way taller than both of them, so there was no angle to show him hitting it that made it dramatic or comedic enough without looking cluttered. That, and Velox has katanas strapped to his back, and it made no sense for them to
Link to the topic and the comic being discussed. The expression on Kakaru's face in panels 3-4 was way funnier in the rough draft. Unfortunately there was no way to transfer it from two dots and a line to a complete face without losing some of the humour. I was tempted to leave it the way it was but that would have looked awful in context. The expression on Velox's face in panel 5, on the other hand, came across perfectly. His stance and the dialogue help get across the "are you kidding me w
Don't worry, my blog isn't going to turn into a thoughts-about-comics thing. I'll post regular entries, this is just the easiest way to share my thoughts on each chapter of my comic. Then again, my life is pretty boring so I suppose this is the best use my blog has seen. Link to the topic and the comic being discussed. I really enjoyed making this first page. I've had the concept floating around for quite a while and even had about six pages drawn, but they were outdated and no longer funny
Here's the general concept of a short comic I've been playing around with, based off my experience working in Nathan8472's Banner Shop when it was still around three (four?) years ago. I don't know if I'll ever get around to posting everything I have, but whatever.
Just a couple things since my mouse keeps dying on me and I'm running out of batteries. ( http://www.majhost.com/gallery/Kakaru/Art/Nathan8472comic/bannershop_02_27_2012.jpg ) Comic. Yes, there are at least three Guide references in this one. There's going to be another in the next page, as well as a revelation as to BZPower's surrounding environment. You can probably guess if you've been paying attention. I really am that bad at drawing masks. The pictures on the board in p#3 are mine and
Especially made from my previously horrid and messy version, a newer more shiny version, custom by Swert to use on my very own business cards! (Business card not shown here because it links to an external blog with a comment system.) IT'S SOOO BEAUTIFUUUUUL
I woke up in the middle of the night with a throbbing headache and no connection to anything that might have caused it, save dehydration. Now anytime my head makes even a very small involuntary movement it hurts like karzahni.
In other news, I got my precious, precioussssss Pandora Hearts manga. I'm so happy! <3
As promised.
MOC
A creation made out of LEGO or BIONICLE. MOC stands for My Own Creation. This term can be used to refer to another's MOC, although if interpreted literally, it will not make sense. MOCists have learned to wisely ignore the literal qualities of the term. Pronounced "mock", and is always capitalized. In terms of pluralization, it is MOCs, without an apostrophe.
MOCist
One who engages in the activity of MOCing. Also known as a MOCer, or "weird".
