Any of you guys know an aspiring RPG-inspire comic artist that would want to take scenes/episodes out of the ridiculous Old School PbP game (http://slangdesign.com/forums/index.php?topic=331.0) that is going on right now and draw them up as a RPPR comic? Something that could maybe go up on the main page?
-
I haven't done any Sprite comics in awhile. Miss the taste. I'll give it a shot. It'll take some time to gather enough sprites. Anybody who has access to good ones, backgrounds in particular, let me know.
-
nice idea!
-
Well since Atilla has lived longer the I planed guess I should give him a discription.
Atilla Redcap, medium sized red headed dwarf with dark brown eyes. Armed with his trusted axe, he is on his never ending quest of hunger. He recently was bestowed a grand gift turning him into a skaven. His dark red fur now covers his body completly, though he still wears his Leather hat and cloak, and now slightly tattered pants. He now works for his new master The Rat King.

I dunno about a comic, but I'm currently doing my PC-A-Day project, where I draw a new character player each day. Perhaps I could take a swing at some of my new adventuring compatriots? (I just rolled up a character)

Sounds good. But I still think if we found a comic artist to do some 6-12 frame comics, it would be a nice addition to the main page. Of course, the work would have to be for free since this is RPPR we're talking about and it's not like we have a budget. :D
-
I can certainly do it. They won't be frequent, of course, but I can certainly do highlights from the adventure. Won't really try for a continuality unless there's a good sequence of events.
I think we'll need a team though. I can do the comics but I'll need at least one other person to proof read scripts and check demos for errors and humor.

I can proof read. I've edited a few literary publications and I read ~1,000 pages of student writing in a semester, so I'm pretty quick at doing so.
-
Cool. I'll draft the first script over the next few days after I review the thread some.
-
You might want to wait until after the town riot. ;-)
-
Well I figured the first page would be the first characters appearing and then follow the guys who actually check out the dungeon.
I want to focus on the groups, not the individuals, like Shakespeare, particularly the ones with funny dialog. Talking barrell is fucking awesome.
-
You mean Winthrop. Oh, poor Richelieu, I was hoping he'd survive longer.
-
See, that was why the very first thing I did was run. And then ran from the next fight. And then surrendered. It's also why my character doesn't make for a great character to follow.
-
I almost killed the bugman. Sigh. I can't wait until I roll some decent stats.
-
I have enjoyed Shakespeare's Quest so far. He's who I would be rooting for if Atilla wasent around haha!

You keep hanging on in the town square scene though. Damn you. Why can't I just get the crowd to lynch you and get on with my day.
-
Gahhh, haha!
-
Gahhh, haha!
So I vote for the Deck of Many Things episode to be the first comic done because holy crap.
-
Why don't we just draw the deaths of the various characters in the game?
-
I like that idea too Maze.
-
Alas poor elf Ireshold

Next up is Richelieu getting pummeled by a bug man. Who wants to do it?
-
LAWL LOVE THE FATALITY!
-
A line string of Fatalities would be fun to do.
-
So, I've spent a month (or two) getting 8-, 16-, and 32-bit graphic backgrounds and characters from various sources so I think I have enough to make the edits to them so as not to violate a dozen copyrights.
Comic might be seeing it's first page within a week or so.
-
oh wow woot!
-
Alright, set back. I was using alot of material from RPG Maker programs and turns out that the scale I'm trying to work on doesn't do so well with the small icons they use.
So, changing formats slightly.
What I want to know is the style that people thinks works best. I can do the SNES RPG overhead approach that RPG Maker defaults to, try something more along the lines of a side scroller, or forgo the entire use of actual game backgrounds and use more artistic ones.
-
just an FYI: The tiles of the roguelike Dungeon Crawl are public domain and if you download the tile version, there's a directory with PNGs of all the tiles.
-
Really? Well, I'll see how those look than.
