Default 9 Lives - A Guild Wars Comic





__________________________________________________ __________________________________






























coming soon!






__________________________________________________ ____________________________________________



Would you like to see your character in this comic? You can! I always have a few open spots for both comrades and villains.
To get your character in the comic you need to inspire me, and convince me that your character is the right choice.
You do this by filling out this form and posting in in this thread:

Quote:
character name: (mary sue)
age: (16)
birthplace: (ascalon city)
comrade or villain?: (comrade)

screenshots: (*^.^*)
body shape and facial features besides screenshots (since GW doesnt allow much variety): (omg sheis liek exotic but she is purdy like an onion wif layrs)

short background-story: (she wus in teh seering and watched her parents die!1 she is traumutizsed but is happy go lucky like yufie from ff7)
why I want him/her in comic: (she gos well wif the ele cus their both sexy n like wearing sexy clothes right)
soundtrack/theme: (My Immortal by Evanescense!1)

* * * the above was an example of what kind of characters I won't even consider.
* * * you can add as much as you want to the above form, if you feel there's something that needs to be said.
* * * I prefer you to leave out common armour and (especially) chaos gloves, unless there's a particular reason why the character is wearing it.
* * * I will re-design your character's armour. It'll still look like your man/woman, but with a few changes here and there. If you want
to minimize this effect you can post your character wearing a simple armour set which is down-to-earth and original, that could
influence me a great deal.
* * * Your character might pop up the the background or in a crowd if I don't decide to involve him/her in the story. Hope you don't mind!









Do you want to try your hand at making a comic? Why not participate in the 9 Lives project?
Any and all artists are welcome to make additions to the comic, either in the form of "Chapter Artwork" (you'll see an exmaple of this soon),
single pages, comic strips, 1-panel funnies etc. Anything you can think of basically.

You can either go;

- Serious Art: you draw as many pages as you want, maybe even entire chapters if you're up to it, based on the storyline. You can either
get a particular assignment from me, or make something of your own design but with roots in the 9 Lives lore. Your addition may or may not become Canon, which means that it will be a set part of the story which is considered to have actually happened to the characters and environment. All readers will go through your story to grasp the full depth of the plot. Whether or not your addition becomes canon depends on 1) your drawing skill, 2) if you've discussed your addition thoroughly with me, and 3) if it's true to the lore and characters.

- Comical Art; you draw anything that comes to mind, in any format you want. The object is to have fun with the characters and situation. If your addition is downright wrong (characters aren't depicted right, situation hasn't been observed first, etc.) you won't be featured.

Your style is entirely up to you.
I also do not expect your additions to look like my original art, I very much welcome variety!



__________________________________________________ ____________________________________________

as I make a few more pages I'll cut the image previews, of course :P

critique not really needed (you can go to my gallery to do that)
because it's sketch-based and I cba to ever clean it up.
I don't have time to make a polished comic. This will do.


Thread is not finished!

Cool two thumbs up, Tzu~!

woah, Tzu~! you go girl~!

the sketchiness is perfect, the rawness of it all enhances the brutality

if it were rendered, polished it might lose some of
that

lol, espadon... XD

new page!
I guess I lied when I said the story would start to unfold at page 5, I need to get her out of the situation first.
And yeah, I know I kinda did a lame-ass job on the last one -_-' n/m, look forward to the next!
