I need characters submitted by you!

Posted at

(I have no idea where to put this so…)

Yes, it's true!

I need them for my comic, Laser Dust, because I'm having good ideas, but I need submitted characters.

They must be toys! They can have whatever personality traits you wish, but keep in mind this isn't a seriously serious comic, more so just humourous with some serious moments, so don't make them… well, don't make them have to fulfil a quest in order to be excepted by their father or something, just think quirky.

My examples:

A Rubber Duck that wants to see the world outside the bathroom, 6 pawns from a chess set that got lost from their chess set and now are fighting in the harsh wilderness that is a house, mice that want to take over the house (which is the world to them), etc.

So, yeah the setting is inside a house.

I will gladly give credit to those who's submissions I use.

I need lots and lots of submissions, too!

Oh yes, THEY MUST BE ORIGINAL. I don't want to have a toy from toy story or chibi-robo, though I would quite fancy Space Hunter Drake Redcrest in my comic, but no. He is taken.

Submissions I'll be using:
-Rock 'em Sock 'em pacifists – Aqua_ng
-An inflatable ball that is afraid of EVERYTHING. – BlkKnight
-Living building blocks who wish to form a mech, but they can't interlock (they pile on each other, trying new formations every time, but eventually they always just topple over) – Mister Kent
-The wise Rubix Cube – Mister Kent
-A large robot action figure that wants to activate function 'Organic_Eat'(wants to be able to eat). – Paper_Cut
-A transforming toy with an identity problem. – TheSwordUpsilon
-A rubber ducky. He is just a rubber ducky though. Can't talk or nutin'. – Bocaj

How about… a Jack-in-the-box that's afraid of coming out of the box? Your choice whether or not he gets over the phobia or not. :)

I got two!

1.) A womanizing jerk muscular action figure.

2.) A rubber ducky. He is just a rubber ducky though. Can't talk or nutin'. Why? BECAUSE HE IS A DUCKY STUPID!!!

Living building blocks who wish to form a mech, but they can't interlock (they pile on each other, trying new formations every time, but eventually they always just topple over)

A girl's fashion doll with the persona of a "seen-it-all" bitter older woman

The wise mentor of the toys - a talking Rubix Cube (if not that, because its probably copyrighted, a talking jigsaw puzzle or something)

A ragdoll and teddy bear who like to do stunts a la Jackass (eh, but not exactly) - only here they throw themselves from the bed, fight with pencils, or strap themselves to remote control cars that are out of their control - fun!

EDIT: Just thought of another, but its kinda bizarre…

An E-Z Bake Oven type of toy that is always trying to trick other toys into climbing into his mouth (that would be the over part - he or she doesn't really have a face, its like this disembodied voice coming from a toy oven…hee)

A cross dressing GI Joe type toy who steals dresses from dolls.
A drunken, chain smoking, hoodoo witchdoctor toy dragon…who wears shades!
A ballerina in a music box who wants to escape from her musical prison and find a boyfriend! Or several boyfriends! Or girlfriends! She's not picky, she's just been in that box so long she's sexually frustrated!

Wow, that last one kind of got away from me there…

Whoah - sexually frustrated music box dancer? That's Gold!

A toy plane who thinks it should always have left wing fundamentals and views, just because it can't turn right.

I only needed seven and I got 11:P

Thanks guys, the taken suggestions is up there at the top.

Those are the characters I'm using and now, I will actually try to make the characters.

In other words, I now need a better program than pixia called 'Hand-drawing skills' :P
