Thread "Casting Call for Extras/Cameos in Used Books" in forum "Networking & Community Projects*"

Posted at 7:09PM, Sep. 4, 2010

Hi, DrunkDuck people. :) I've never drawn cameos in Used Books before, but I have a few chapters coming up that require extras, so to save some trouble in designing characters, to give some exposure to other comics, and because cameos are just fun, I'd like to ask for permission to use your characters in my crowd and background scenes.

Any characters I use I will mention in my author notes along with a link to your comic.

The types of "extra" characters I need are for a few varied settings.
~College campus
~Suburban barbeque
~Upper class masquerade ball
~General urban setting

If you permit me, I might use your character as a "recurring" extra for multiple chapters/stories. My story is in modern, real life setting and T+ rated, so if the character is an alien or wears *really* strange things, I'll need to make some alterations to fit them to my world. – Or, if they are distinct enough, maybe I could use them as costumed guests at the ball.

If you're okay with me borrowing a character or two, please reply with the character(s), a link to your comic, and at least one good reference picture (or a link to one).

Sounds like a really creative idea. Feel free to use any character you want from my comic. Most of the characters are young adults in modern times, so it shouldn't be too hard to adapt.
Here's the comic Link

And here's a link to a decent reference for Lucy my main character

You can use any of the Crossing Death crew.

Isis does want to be everywhere.

You can use every character I have too, I'd especially like it if you'd use No Room For Squares kind of things.

You're welcome to use any of mine also, but they are all Furies.
My main characters FATHER in my flagship comic RANDI

You were cool about me ripping some dialogue from your comic and putting it into mine, so go ahead and borrow any characters of mine ya like.

If peolpe are in costumes, a Harkovast character costume would be cool.
A Sir Muir Costume always looks good!

So yeah, if you can find a place for em, feel free to use anyone from Harkovast you like.

Feel free to use anybody from Apple Valley - I've got quite a number of easy-to-draw humans rambling about that would be perfect for nearly everything 'cept the ball… I don't see many of my characters getting invited to that. Some character suggestions:

Arthur - http://www.drunkduck.com/Apple_Valley/index.php?p=732786 - he's the one in red
Leaf - http://www.drunkduck.com/Apple_Valley/index.php?p=732791 - she's the one in green (as opposed to BEING green). Leaf is technically an Elf (as this comic shows) but as long as her hair is down you can't really tell.
Dr Hubris - http://www.drunkduck.com/Apple_Valley/index.php?p=732386 - resident scientist, not evil (but not all that good either)
Doyle and Horn - http://www.drunkduck.com/Apple_Valley/index.php?p=734481 - Doyle (the one in green) is Art's brother, and is naive and trusting, which usally bites him in the ass. Horn (in purple, with the pompador) is a small-time thief and general punk in the classic sense - and he's Canadian, to boot.

Sounds cool, you can use any character from The Legends. Feel free to make any alterations you like.

You can use my character from If ya like http://www.drunkduck.com/Malevolent_Malpractice

Thanks for the response! It will be a great help to have some faces to fill out the crowds when I get to those chapters. :)

I'll PQ people when one of their characters appears. The current chapter doesn't have any extras, but I'll need some starting in a month or two.

If it's not too late to sign up, you can use anyone from http://www.drunkduck.com/Half_as_Bad_as_You/ (Which I swear I'm going to start updating again soon.)

Posted at 10:10AM, Oct. 1, 2010

Sure. This is kinda open-ended. I'll include as many as I can in the crowd scenes, starting with the first people who requested (and fit into the needs of the scene).
