OK.
Hi Everyone.
I haven't been massively active on Void for a while and I think I need to spruce things up a bit so I'm going to do something I was never able to do before and that is to create a character and submit an Intro Comic. (I launched straight into a Tournament with Fredric).
I have been writing and drawing bits of a comic I really want to make on and off for a while now, and I thought as a fun way to develop some of the characters involved in it I would use them on Void. By putting them in certain situations with other characters on the site will hopefully get me thinking in different ways about them, and also help me develop a bit more the way I want to be making comics.
So this is one of the characters...
I've just been flatting buts of colour onto him. I'll update this image as I progress with it. Might actually try colouring it traditionally aswell. See what visual aesthetic I prefer.
His name is Fig. He's basically based on me, but caricatured and fishy!
He is part of a tribe, (based on Native American Tribes) that live in an "Underwater" world.
Its not quite underwater, its more that their atmosphere is a mixture halfway between water and air.
Rather than riding on the back of a horse he rides round on the back of a Giant Newt named Tiva.
This is a drawing featuring an adolescent Newt that I did a good few months ago, I imagine them a lottle differnet now, nevertheless...
I'm trying to keep backstory and stuff like that brief.
This is Fig and Tiva first meeting when they are young.
Basically I want to challenge people to battles, hopefully being able to incorporate their characters into my underwater world, maybe changing them physically a bit, (gills,fins maybe) with the artists permission of course. Also anyone can feel free to take Fig onto earth as he could sort of work amphibiously I guess? Just wanted to check if this is a cool thing to do with the Void admin people or not?
Any impressions would be welcome.
In regards to an Intro comic, as I've not done one before. What do you guys thinks most important in showing in it?
