Hi there

I'm aiming to make a short Void related video every month that focuses on interviews with our members for your viewing pleasure.

Episode 1
MoCCA Fest 2012
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3aKfvIQmjY

Guests, in order of appearance:
William Duel http://entervoid.com/index.php?action=profile;u=2438
PuzzleThing http://entervoid.com/index.php?action=profile;u=759
Runic http://entervoid.com/index.php?action=profile;u=2788
Evan Dahm http://entervoid.com/index.php?action=profile;u=270
Bittermause http://entervoid.com/index.php?action=profile;u=1564
HeyZoos http://entervoid.com/index.php?action=profile;u=133

We started out in Ye Olde Carlton Arms Hotel, which is painted head to toe by different artists. http://www.carltonarms.com/the_rooms.htm

William Duel happened to get a room that was themed with hermaphrodites ... So, the first part was pretty silly but the second part takes place at MoCCA Fest where we meet up with Evan, Bitter, and HeyZoos!


Small note: I usually upload Void videos to another account, but since this is over the normal time limit I had to upload it to my real account. Therefore it's an unlisted video that can only be accessed with a link to it (You can't search for it and it's not listed on my channel). Also, embedding has been disabled, sorry... I'm preventing my usual subscribers from viewing it.

Here's some other Void vids from my other account:

Welcome to the MURDER JAM. Where you murder the previous character with a new character of your own.

VICTIM ONE:



JayBee is a whimsical wood elf who left the magical forest to travel to the big city. Leaving was an easy decision because all of the other elves mocked him for being a rabid fan of Justin Bieber fan and Twilight. He gets really defensive if you mock him for being an elf, or mock his fandoms.


Whoever wants to go next has to draw a new character killing this one. The person after that draws a new character killing the last one. So on and so on.

Funny or serious, it doesn't matter. They can have a reason for killing them, or none at all. Just have fun and be creative.

This can be just a single drawing of the killing, OR a comic!

Since the lack of stuff in the Void store has been brought up, I'm trying to get a general consensus of what kind of Void merchandise you dudes would be interested in... or if you are interested at all. It never really sold a lot of stuff, but maybe it just had the wrong stuff. Anything on here that you'd like that isn't listed?

So cast your votes, you can pick as many things on the poll as you'd like.I screwed it up and you can only pick one haha... whoops. Post up a comment on your thoughts.

April 23rd is Bring a Friend to Void Day!

It's always awesome to get new people here, so this is a fun and easy way to help spread the word!

On April 23rd, we are all going to post an image on our favorite social network or blog (Facebook, Deviantart, Conceptart, Blogger, Tumblr etc, you get the idea) that shows off what you've done here at Void and let's people know about us.

OR

Just simply invite a friend to join! I bet a lot of you came here from word of mouth, I know I did. Maybe a friend, or someone you watch on Deviantart, or yo mama.

OR YOU CAN DO BOTH!!


The image:
I've made two photoshop files that will act as templates. Each has three panels that you can put your own art into. Horizontal or vertical, whichever you prefer.
You can draw entirely new stuff for the panels, or pull from comics and art you've done already.

Horizontal Template:

Vertical Template:

SO! You have about a week to prepare! It doesn't have to take that long if you don't have the time, and you could potentially bring some awesome new people to the site! Also, if you do this then you are super cool. 

Post them here now if you'd like to, but wait till April 23rd until we unleash on the rest of the internet

OR YOU CAN TOTALLY MAKE YOUR OWN FLIER!!!!! WHATEVER YOU WANT, DUDES!!!

What is the incubator?
The incubator is a place where you can post your new character, and intro comics, to receive feedback before you submit through the main site. In order for your character to be accepted, your submission must be up to our standards of quality, and also meet our submission requirements. The incubator is a good place to make sure that your submission is in order before you submit it.

What should I post?
• It is important to remember that users are only allowed to create one thread in the incubator, even if you decide to stop working on a character and start making a new one. Please keep everything in a single thread and edit it as necessary.
• You can post whatever you have so far on your character, or comics. You are encouraged to post complete art, but sketches and works-in-progress are fine if you feel you need critique in your earlier stages.
• Feel free to post thumbnails of your comics if you’d like critique on your page layout.

What shouldn’t I post?
• Anything that isn’t related to your submission. We have a section called ‘Go For Broke’ in which you can post your previous work, or other art that you’d like critique on.
• A post containing no art whatsoever. Posts that only contain text will be locked.

Important Notes about submission guidelines
Design Sheet
• The design sheet should clearly show your character and their important features. It is recommended that you draw them in a static, standing pose.
• Design sheets MUST be in color. Color swatches are not acceptable.
• The need for a shot of their back is on a case-to-case basis. If your character is just a guy with a T-shirt and jeans then a back shot would not be necessary. However, if your character has a design on the back of that shirt then a back shot would be necessary.
• Include close-ups and descriptions of anything on your character that you need to, such as scars, tattoos, intricate hair-dos, designs on clothing, weapons, etc. The more visual information, the better.

Intro Comics (2 page minimum, 4 page maximum)
• The intro comics are intended to be a way to measure your comic making skills. You want to do your very best on them.
• You can do whatever you’d like as far as the story goes. Just introduce us to your character.
• Unlike the design sheet, the intro comics do not have to be in color if you don’t want them to be.
• These comics cannot be sloppy, unfinished, or incorrectly sized.

Bio
The shorter you can make your Bio, the better. Just give us the essential information.

"Unspoken Rules"
• You must be able to draw human anatomy, at least decently. If you are submitting a non-human character, then please show us a human somewhere in your submission.
• Backgrounds: A comic without any backgrounds will be rejected.
• Effort: Even if you aren’t the best artist out there, showing tons of effort will probably get you approved. If you are a fantastic artist but slack on your submission, you will not be accepted.

Character creation FAQS

Does my character have to be a fighter?
No. They can be whatever you want them to be.

Does my character have to live in Void City?
No. Void City is a setting that is often used, but it is in no way required. You can even have your comics take place in whatever time period you’d like. If you’d like to use Void city, it can look any way you want it to. There is no map, and there are no set locations.

Can my character be a duo or trio etc of people?
Yes, you can submit a group as a single character. You submit them all on a single submission. They must all be included on a single design sheet and intro comic.

Are my characters powers/abilities limited? Can I make a character with God-like powers?
We don’t limit your characters power, they can have whatever powers you want to give them.

Can my character be a cat, alien, furry, 20 foot monster, or robot?
Yes, anything goes.

Also, Please Note:
Please be respectful when receiving and giving critique. Unnecessarily rude or off topic posts will be deleted.
