Aww man did I miss that last spot?

Posted at 6:08PM, Aug. 30, 2009

hmm… we can have an alternative lineup, just in case someone can't do theirs and you can have first in line for the next book.

Posted at 7:08PM, Aug. 30, 2009

Can I also be an alternate?

Posted at 7:08PM, Aug. 30, 2009

If there is no objections agains Poser art, sign me in as alternative…

Posted at 7:08PM, Aug. 30, 2009

as long as its all made by you (objects, clothes…etc)

Posted at 8:08PM, Aug. 30, 2009

This seems really cool, but I don't want to submit something now, because I don't like my work enough, and I'm busy with school and such as of tomorrow.
I may have to buy it, though, and that would be quiet a feat from me, considering how little I buy online…

Posted at 8:08PM, Aug. 30, 2009

Aw, hell. I'll join if there's a spot left. I think this would be a good experience!

Posted at 9:08PM, Aug. 30, 2009

i'll join though im wondering what do we have to draw

Posted at 9:08PM, Aug. 30, 2009

Hmm… I guess that is a problem, since only half of the things that I use are made by me…(other half being freebies and models that I buy and altered).

The licences of the models that I buyed state that "Buyer (me, in this case) acquires the copyright to any derivative works created using this work, provided none of the original materials can be extracted from the derivative work by any means."

However, since I really don't want to create trouble for DD, I should do either more research or do handrawing (and that will take me sometime. So I guess that it will be better if you don't count on me until I have the straight facts on that matter.

Awesome initiative, BTW!!!

oh actually, I hand draw all my stuff. I can just hand draw it and put it in the template right? And I don't colour in my drawings, if you'd prefer it I could colour my pages in. (All of this for the next book or if someone can't make it)

And I can't download the template, I don't have photoshop.

I'm excited! :) If the shipping fees don't blow the price out of the water I'll have to buy this.

Posted at 5:08AM, Aug. 31, 2009

Damn, I'd forgotten about shipping… well, how much can they charge for shifting fifty sheets of paper, really?

By the way, any plans for the front cover?

Posted at 6:08AM, Aug. 31, 2009

oooh this is gonna be so much fuuuun!!
What are you guys (who have signed up) thinking of doing for your mini-comic??

I have a bunch of short stories that I wrote years ago that I wanted to turn into comic scripts but never feltany of them deserved a full-lenght story. Going to be one of these :D

Posted at 8:08AM, Aug. 31, 2009

I had a story in mind, but I suddenly realised it was way too similar to Fight Club. =P So, uh, not sure right now. I'm pondering something creepy-ish.

Posted at 8:08AM, Aug. 31, 2009

I think I'd be more willing to collaborate than do one myself- I just don't have a short story in me. Well, I do, but like I insinuated it's adult-oriented. ;) But if anyone's interested I think I can crap out 5 pages of art.

I could try this'n. :)
You wanna script it, or just gimme the ball to run with?

ill whip something out.

since it's the first issue i wanted to do the cover, but the next one should be up for grabs.

i'll do a story about jericho (the wolf character in Dreams in Synergy) vs tentacle zombies. it's gonna take place around the dissapearance of the Ronoak colony of 1755

I don't think the brands will be a problem- I've seen plenty of comics with specific brand references. :)

well, the content of the story doesn't really put beer into a good light…so beer companies might get all litigation happy.

Posted at 9:08AM, Aug. 31, 2009

Plus you don't want to mention brand names exactly, so as to avoid giving gigantic businesses any extra exposure/advertising… heh!

I have an idea, but it's not quite as rollicking or gory as everyone else's… it's more like… 'quiet'. But wistful!

Posted at 9:08AM, Aug. 31, 2009

i've increase the pages to 52 so we can have more room to add extra stuff like author profiles as well as other things

Posted at 3:08PM, Aug. 31, 2009

i could come up with a story.. i already have plenty of pieces of prose. but i'd need someone to do the artwork. but yeah, i'm game :)

Posted at 4:08PM, Aug. 31, 2009

Beer issue:

Do it like in Tank Girl, they had Spunk Beer and stuff like that in there :D

- - - - -

I have the story selected and laid out on 6 pages, now I just need to do the actual writing :D

Quick question: how do I go about compressing the TIFF files so that they are able to be emailed? The current files are huge.

Posted at 9:09PM, Sep. 1, 2009

how big?
did you use the kablam format?
