  1. Hm, I saw that. But I prefer to see him as an absent-minded slacker who never applies himself. Plus, his dialogue is hilarious. There's too much grim floating around CoX, imho.
  2. So as even my friends who don't play CoH know, Sands is my favoritest sig character evar, mainly because of his delightfully lighthearted smartassery. Unfortunately, I rarely draw a) guns or b) armor. I just don't know how I could do the stormtroopery white armor thing without making the wearer look like a total tool (actually, I think most of the arbiters look like tools, with one exception <3). Plus, I forgot his stupid glasses.

    So the end product is someone who doesn't actually resemble Sands at all. BUT IT'S HIM I SWEAR. Right before he shotguns me into debt again.

    Also, if anyone has seen RadiantBeam around, please give him a swift kick in the crotch. I'm looking for him.
  3. While drawing the latest page, I noticed that a few of you are missing pictures. Namely, Janus Fanel and Spark Force, the latter of which originally sent me his via sendspace (which expires after a set amount of time). I'll need a response within the next couple weeks if you want to be in this chapter, and eventually if you want to be in the comic at all.

    For the rest of you, the next page will probably be up Friday, although this also depends on if Comicgen behaves and how much I dislike my job and therefore need to take advantage of Double XP in the meantime. So far, it's Cherry, Comrade Hero, and El_D.

    Working sucks,

    Ah, so I WAS mistaken in my assumption Ah well, at least I was right about ONE of them

    If I'm reading that right, is Manticore offering to bump everyone involved in whatever it is he's planning up to Security Level 25? Because that would be a 25-level downgrade for both Kadmon and Shrike

    [/ QUOTE ]

    I'm sure many of the toons are 50s in actuality... but in the interests of everyone showing up at once so I could pare down this massive list I got and also keeping in mind it's not like Manticore could really do something like this anyway, I figured it would be okay.

    Kur and Rad are also 50s, but it's not interesting hearing about people who have already finished leveling...

    Thanks for the nice comments.
  5. As some of you may remember, I took a bunch of requests awhile ago for some characters to be put in my comic. There were a whole bunch and most of them are going to be in this current arc, so I figured I'd post them as they appeared in this thread for simplicity's sake.

    7 reqs here
    Aside from Rad and Kur, the characters are from left to right...
    Middle panel, right: Rue Sylfaen, Nixie Sidhe, Mint Sylfaen
    Bottom left: Frosty Femme, CapeMike
    Bottom right: Masked Shrike, Kayain
    Bottom middle: Striking Speedster, Gamble, Crestent attempting to drink through his...mask thing.
  6. Nah, not really. I have an account there, but since there've been so many problems with DA, I just have an infrequently editted y-gallery account. And a comic, obviously.
  7. Oh, good. I was hoping to find out if I got anything glaringly wrong
  8. The other day, I decided to start a group picture of my resident double-fictional villain group, Kurenai. Even though I'm probably only going to end up cutting most of these pictures down so I can fit them into however many pixels each 2000-some px divides by nine into, yeah.

    Pictures .

    They should be labelled, but in case they're not, the villains included are Turbo-Ski, Tsugumi, Trane, Liam Hawkeye, Nathan Thorne, Foxglove, Kuroda Kousuke, and Damsell. Lydia Lovecraft is still being worked on :/.

    I don't know if it's the look you were going for, but he's ADORABLE. Must be the eyes.
  10. No problem. Hope you can finish before break's over
  11. Making stuff with Flash is a lot of work, ain't it? It's cool that you're spending your break making something when you could just as easily play CoH >_>.

    One thing: I noticed your movie is some 2.5 MB, which seems really high for a preview. I have a feeling it's due to the background music, but there's really no way for me to be sure. If you're planning on submitting this to Newground or something similar, though, you should definitely look into ways to compress it a little more.

    Okay, I have about 20 or so responses so far, so I'm going to put any more requests on hold until I can deal with some of the ones I've already got. I'll update this thread as I deal with those on the list and/or I can open this offer back up again.

    To those of you who are not on the current list but should be, be sure to contact me so I don't forget. And now, back to lurking.

    Kadmon: either posting it here or emailing's just fine, I'll get it either way.

    Lot of people are requesting recurring.... un. I'm no Kishimoto, so I guess we'll just have to see what happens. Too bad there's no exam-type event in CoX. Thanks for the clarification, Serengeti. Thought that's what it was, but wasn't sure.

    This is an extremely cool offer! I'll be sending some stuff your way as well.

    Edit: And sent! I submitted Bone Wasp for villanous consideration.

    Thanks. What is that on Wasp's face, a breather piece?

    For the record, in case it isn't pretty obvious by this point, both Kadmon and Shrike are mine, so Shrike should probably be bumped back as a second character in the 10-person list I saw for heroes (unless that isn't really an issue)

    Also, I love that 4Chan House picture

    [/ QUOTE ]

    Oh, don't worry about it. Since they're so closely related, I was just going to put them in together.

    And I love that pic, too. It goes right up there with my other favorite 4chan junk, like Snake's horrified expression as light erupts from his pants or Light screaming about "going for the gold in the Beijing Olympics".

    Oh, 4chan.

    Okay, I've posted the information of everyone whose information I've received, and this is what I've thought of so far:

    1. Spark Force: I'm not sure if you wanted to make a cameo or have a more extended role, but if it's the former, I have a bar scene I can put you in at the end of the current chapter.
    2. CapeMike: You obviously need to be in a funny scene. I'm still thinking.
    3. Gamble: I was thinking your matter materialization powers would probably be of great interest to Crey. Hmm.
    4. Slaughtermouse and Turboski: Do either of you want to be part of Kurenai? You'd have to wait somewhat longer to appear, but you'd also be signature villains and not limited to one story arc. If not, Slaughter goes in the next chapter and I'm not sure about 'ski. I don't want her to be a beat-and-forget type villain.
    5. The Fenris Project. None of the two chapters I have planned ahead have anything to do with the Council. So I'd like to put you in later as a chapterwide villain in a case Kadmon and Shrike are investigating. (I'll try to fit the CoT in there as well, since their stories are strongly tied to that villain group).
    6. Lucretia de Loccia. As someone who routinely requisitions Crey resources, she seems like the perfect guide for a break-in

    masterdx: As many as you want, although I will put other people's first toons above your second or third toons, unless they can be put together.

    Thoughts?

    Wow, that's quite a few more responses than I got on the Protector forums . Hurrah!

    Looking forward to hearing from ya all.

    Hi, everyone. I'm the author of a City of Heroes-based webcomic named Reflect, and as you might have guessed from the title of this post, I'm looking for toons who'd like to make an appearance somewhere in it one way or another.

    You can find some specific kinds of toons I'm looking for here, but I'd just like to have more of other people's heroes/villains in general involved. It IS a CoX comic, after all. Anyways, if nothing else, it's an opportunity to get a free drawing.

    If this sounds interesting, use this cool form I made, but just remember to give me enough so I don't get your character wrong.

    Edit: I've decided to put up a page of all the requests I've gotten so I can keep them straight. I think I've got everyone who's sent me something up at the moment. Link: Request Page

    Another Edit: Major roles go to friends and interesting toons first. Also, the size of any and all roles is directly proportional to how long you'll probably have to wait to appear, since I already have two chapters semi-planned out.

    Say Yuuki, just for fun I quickly put together a Poser image of your Prelude figure. It's quite unfinished since it's missing footwear and because it blatantly uses a Tron texture, but I offer it in fun. I hope you like it!

    Kyaa >w<! Thank you, he's so cute! I will keep him FOR EVAR.

    Sorry about neglecting the thread so long. I have been discovering the joys of ice tanking/moving into my new apartment.

    Thor's Assassin
    Radey Ayte + Windfallen

    TA turned about the way I expected... Hoods have always been my enemy (along with Macs). I like how Windfallen turned out, but only after I emitted a primal scream of rage after I lost the original lineart. Grr.

    Now for Shadow. This will be interesting; I don't remember ever drawing a mohawk before.

    The "edit" function only lasts for a limited amount of time and it's waaaaaay too short in my opinion.

    [/ QUOTE ]

    NOOOOOOO! *continues screaming* How will I keep my posts up-to-date? Now anyone who wants all the pictures will have to scroll through the entire thread.

    Spookie: Hahaha... yeah, I definitely don't have a finished look. But thanks!
    Ordinary: Well, I'm not really the one to talk because all my toons are of the same build with the same hairstyle and similar clothes >___>;;
    CuppaBubble: It's an emoticon, kind of like : ) except the mouth is more catlike.

    Cute! I like the glowing tabs! I can't believe Oekaki Central only has you at one star. I've seen two and three starers that I think aren't as good as you.

    I did request to have my rating re-evaluated, but was turned down. In any case, it seems I can't edit my posts for some reason D:<. Argh.. what a pain. Does anyone know why?
  23. Devin and Trinket are done.

    I don't really like this one :/. I guess you can tell what's happening, but Trinket just doesn't look very girly (this is what happens when you draw guys al the time!). The panels don't look so hot either, which I probably should have expected... There's not a lot of middle ground between hard coloring and soft in PaintBBS, so I probably should have stuck with one or the other. Oh well.

    -138 unsatisfactory minutes to complete
    -finished to "One Winged Angel" (Advent Children version)
    -Why does everyone have the same shoulder things?
    -Last night I had this odd dream where I was an investigator with precognitive abilites, like Lance Henrikkson in Millenium. But my mom showed up and started upstaging me, so I left the crime seen to look at those cheese and cracker snacks that come with a red plastic spreading tool at the local supermarket.
  24. Edit: A better version of the Dealus pic. I'm not sure why, but jpegs tend to hate red/maroon. Hopefully you can see the difference between the two files ^^

    Hahaha ;;; In the picture, both of his eyes were glowy, so I made a compromise.

    I know what you're talking about... people do the air-console thing all the time in... Xenosaga? Star Ocean 3? Something like that.

    ...I am actually kind of proud of the fact that I had no idea what Ferrell and Watts looked like. Go me D:<
