How the fukk did i NOT comment on this?? I prolly commented in my head while reading it so convincingly, i thought i typed an entire paragraph.
It is never too late.
Dude man. This is just amazing in the limited timeframe given. To me it was clear the old fukk is Rtv. I am seriously honored by how you kept the history intact and STILL know how the guns work.
Although Rtv's timetravel has never been physical, it worked in this and this was some excellent showmanship on your part. One small thing i loved the most is seeing Caesar using a gun. It tells me he too is just a man that uses the best weapon at his disposal to match the level of the threat.
I really LOVE the ninja-ish design. It only makes sence since the current armour is slightly based off of samurai. You went for Morgan Freeman, which is funny. Before i read your comment i kept thinking: "If this was a movie Morgan Freeman would fit this role, look at the wrinkles" Nice man!
I also like how both our sides portray that Caesar and Rtv aren't enemies by choice, but by neccesity (excuse any misspelled shite) I will definitly do something with the design in the near future.
Somehow this match gave me alot more insight on Caesar. And you're keeping me curious with the whole Aiden thing. Hurry!
I seriously hope you win this. But then again, i told Andre the same thing.
@ponbiki
Not caring about the win is only judged by how YOU view this shit. I cannot summon some godpowers to speed up the proccess. The colouring was done on the last day and most of it was during the grace period. I chose to colour before i drew it because i am aware of all my opponents strengths. Iketeru's inking is superior to mine thus i had to balance it with camouflage of colour. Off course i wanted to win, Caesar beat me in a default and i lost ATN cuz in real life i almost died. But i do not speak of it, cuz this ain't the place to talk about personal shit.
We've been there already.
I had to make a sacrificial choice at the end between story and quality. And with the limited time i had i did not want another silent comic with characters that have their mouths open for no goddamn reason. I cared enough to win, but i do not have the speed of Heather Breckel or James Stokoe when it comes to colouring.
Your standard does not apply to me. Sorry if my entry has dissappointed you.
I am happy with the growth i've gained here.
I couldn't submit shit in four weeks, now i can do stuff in a smaller timeframe.
I stopped giving a shit the day i ran out of the hospital to finish my comic against the Alliance and got shitted on for it.
All crits are accepted and appreciated, but you cannot decide for me how i felt about something cuz i did not meet a standard.
This was fun and i am glad i FINALLY got my long awaited rematch. And pon i'm willing to take you on in a rematch without the threesome;)
Let us not make any big deals of stuff no one will even remember the moment another event pops up.
Let's just have fun, fukk angels in the ass and bukkake all over policemen.
And DAN now too! Your comment wasn't there a second ago. Ha ha ha! This is just like old times!
Seriously, your guys' comments just made my day. It makes this place feel a little bit more like home again.
Wow, what an insane match! Return of the oldies! haha!
RTV! As always, good to see you throwing down. I wish the whole thing had been colored, but I know how hard that is. I felt Caesar's face looked a little wonky at times, but it was still an awesome fight. Interested in seeing where RTV!'s story goes in the long run. It's been such a long journey!
Iketeru! Back in action! It's a blast seeing you on here again! Your art has leveled up a ton, lines look great. I would have liked a little more to happen, but at the same time it was a complete battle... I guess I just like reading longer comics now haha!
Very excellent! Such a close match!
I wish I could say that I meant for Rtv to be an entirely different white version of himself, but I didn't. I was inspired by Morgan Freeman's character in the movie Dream Catcher, but I guess it didn't translate well.
Rtv, I'm really glad we got to fight in this thing. You're a trooper for cranking out those pages in the four days that we both ironically ended up working on this. Next time we're in a big tournament, maybe we shouldn't accept other challenges. Lol.
i liked both.
Rtv you always have such nice coloring that it kills me that you barely use it. then it hurt me that u dint even clean up your pencil lines.and thats what killed it for me. you've been fighting in void for a long time and this problems in consistencies should really stop. I think if you can keep up the quality when i comes to coloring the whole thing then just leave it B&W and make it very clean cut. I base my vote for you on quality and and it was low i Know you can do amazing art but you really are just not caring enough to really win. I would say do your best next time but ive been waiting for that since the battles of The all together tourney and it saddens me that youve gone this far with so many quality issues. you do have amazing shots and action but thats all i think its time to do a little work on just putting out something that is very clean and finished not this half ass shit.
Oh and im sorry, i say this because if i did what you did people would be like youdint finshed why dint you clean up you pencils and all that shit. so just making a point.
Ike i like yours too. the whole future Rtv did confuse me at first.. but the minute he started to speak i got it
the only reason was because he was a old white dude... then i remeber oh yeah rtv sometime draws him white and sometimes not. the redesign of his suit was bad ass. im a sucker for redesigns. the inks are sooo great love em, i just wish it was a longer the fight. while Rvt gave us a longer fight hes looked unfinish in quality
on the other hand you gave us a short fight but quality dint suffer thats why my vote went towards you.
Im looking forward to our rematch when your finished here.
good luck to the both of you.
Thanks for the comments so far!
I knew that redesigning Rtv so drastically was a bit of a risk when I did it. I'm disappointed if it's difficult to recognize him; I did try to keep elements of his design intact to combat that but maybe I didn't keep enough. Having battled Rtv before I decided that I wanted to play on elements of his character that I hadn't the first time. Whereas last time I presented him in a very urban, crime oriented way I wanted to emphasize the more sci-fi element of his character a bit more this time around.
Ultimately I decided to make him old because I didn't know where Rtv was going in his storyline and didn't want to mess anything up for him if I were to win. So making him an old man dodged all of that. Additionally, I intentionally gave him five digits on each hand rather than four (whereas in our first fight it was a mistake), because I thought that since Rtv has had multiple forms this could also just be written off by Rtv as another version of his character. In fact I almost called him Rtv 08 in the story but opted out of that because I thought it was silly to do so. I really wanted to use the girl, Rtv 04, but I had no idea what Rtv intends for her so I thought it would be presumptuous of me to do that.
I liked Rtv!'s a lot. The lack of color didn't really bother me cause I like the inks... at least it wasn't pencil or just thumbs, that woulda bugged me, but the inks alone are very pretty too so I didn't mind. Woulda been BETTER if fully colored sure, but I still didn't mind.
Iketeru's I didn't like a much as his last 2. I also didn't get that the old man was Rtv! at first... it really doesn't look like him at all to me, not even an old guy version of him. Also He really looked like a white guy to me...
I voted Rtv!
Pandora vs Rtv! has all kinds of awesome written on it! but I'm sure Ike will do a good job too.
RTV-you had some great shots and expressions, this was a very solid action comic. But the obvious unfinished nature of the comic really hurt you because it really sucks to see these awesome colors and then switch to raw inks that haven't been cleaned up. Not a bad comic in the end though.
IketeruGuy-You have some really amazing inks and you also did some great action. But it took me a few read throughs to get that the old guy was RTV, while I know it was clearly stated in the comic that it was multiple times, I kept thinking "okay who's this old dude?" haha I guess something didn't click in my brain that this guy was RTV for some reason and I can't quite put my finger on why. But it was still an enjoyable read despite my slowness.
RTV - nice startup, but I really was left wanting more and completely finished pages :P.
Stephen - NICE lines dude. Really awesome stuff. I love the really heavy blacks here. I think quality wise this definitely is your best looking round so far!
Rtv: I really liked your comic. I enjoyed your take on Caesar and Rtv and I like how well our sides can compliment each other in a way. I think those are things that we should definitely pick up on again later. I really liked the outfit you designed for Caesar and the martial arts battle between him and Rtv was cool. I really liked the part where they kick each other's legs. Very cool work, man!
RTV- Epic panelling my dude, story was well placed consider its span...just wish it wasn't so short (but Im aware why). I even appreciate the acknowledgement of you all previous encounter.
IKguy- Clean pages and an alternative opponent always does it for me. But once again, I wanted more.
In both cases The urge for more is a good sign and I like how you both played on knowing have other from the past future.
Re-re-re-re-uploaded. All dialogue was impromptu and i didn't fukking read it or check for errors.
Both of us did this in four days...and i'm okay with the result for the time i had.
Now that i look at the pages im not sure if i should've added dialogue. The action was meant to be panel by panel.
Oh well, we should definatly do this again.
I'm glad i got my motherfukking rematch, in a once-in-a-blue-moon tournament. I am truly blessed.
And now it's time for me to sleep till august. I'm leaking zombie juice.
Checkered pasts and martial arts skills galore in this one.
Quality rating's probably gonna be pretty top notch so I'm going to be looking very critically for some creativity in the storytelling to pick my winner, I'm betting.
