Redrawing a page

withoutbones — Tue, 17 Aug 2010 02:28:40 +0000

Here’s the first page of PFS, which I wasn’t very happy about:

So yesterday I redrew the whole thing. Removed more than half of the characters, tightened the whole thing up. Started inking it tonight:

Time to make a sandwich, so will finish it and the final missing page…tomorrow maybe. (Photos taken with webcam, so they are kind of awful.)

Playing as yourself.

I finished the main storyline of Dragon Quest IX a week or so ago. I played as myself. Here’s me collecting the final Fygg. I am wearing Enchanted Armor, Vesta Gauntlets, Sturdy Slacks, Dragon Warrior Boots, and a Mighty Armlet.

After finishing that, I was talking to my friend Sam (seen in the post below, looking at his cards) about other DS games. We both decided to buy a new game, one that we could play against each other. I’m playing that game as myself as well. Here’s me as the game begins.

Hosted the first Nerd Night at my place last night. 4 friends came over, and I taught them how to play Settlers of Catan. I think they liked it. We all laughed a lot. Brantley won.

I’ve been looking to start a bust collection, but haven’t seen any around to buy. While reading this article on BoingBoing about Mold-A-Rama machines. The final image is this’n:

Here’s some really cool armor made for cats and mice.

PFS: Say You Want to Revel in Loot, Son.

Today I pencilled, inked, scanned and colored 3 pages of this 6 page PFS Prologue I have been working on. I say working on, but really I’ve only finished 2 other pages. And one of those I hate, and will be redrawing. But here are the 4 that are done and I am happy with. 2 more to go, then we jump into the actual story.

The title, “Say you want to revel in loot, son” is one possible way to misunderstand the Beatles lyric “Say you want a revolution”. It’s also the title of the first collection of Invisibles comics. Both of those things are really good. So, I figure this comic can be as good as those things are when/if you misunderstand them.

These pages aren’t necessarily in order, so don’t try and read them as if they were. Just LOOK.

Roman helmets

I love looking at armor and weaponry, especially when thinking about PFS. Here’s a couple of cool roman helmets snagged from ffffound who snagged them from Chintz of Darkness, whatever that is.

This thing looks really cool. Supposed to be released around the holidays and hopefully it isn’t too expensive.
