it's going slowly due to the fact that quite a few of your artists don't have easy to a scanner......¬¬

Don't sweat over it, Zip (and others who are involved in this).

I'm pretty sure most of you are not full time artists (school/work and other priorities?) and you guys are working with each other over the Net. Take the time to work on it, have fun and get to know each other. By God's grace, all things work out.

Yeah, your right mave, Ive got an idea. hang on, ill get it all worked out, everyone sit tight...

I can help with animals/monsters/plants/landscapes, since I can draw good ones really fast. Humans usually take a little while though, and I have a couple of projects already going. I'd prefer to help with nonhuman things.

w00t! e-mi-LY! XD i like~<3

mwahahaha, big brush on photoshop! XD *kinda hyper-had caffeine* he reminds me of someone.....i think folken (escaflowne) yeah...folken in the manga....

I'm no artist, but as a writer I figure you probably want me to make my presence known...

Not really, but thanks anyways, I may as well spill the beans;

Im going to assign each artist an individual character, but dont everybody start making prefrences, jsut because you are particular to one type of character, doesnt mean your the best at drawing them, im expirimenting right now, i want to see who weve got (Yes i have forgotten all :P).

ZiP, I will be buying a scanner fairly soon with money I got from graduation (Ill need it for my major in college) so I can scan stuff now

Hisharo Himato is the samurai guy right?

Yo, i can color as well check my art corner area, for computer colored images i've done, their not perfect but gall dang it i just started this color on the computer thing. LOL

Chico eh ok.

Chapel

Te reason I paired you off wiht Emily is because of your latest one, thats pretty good I think. Sort of manly but definatly a woman.

.....if i saw my assignment earlier, i would've scanned in my nanny sketches along with the following doodles.....but oh well, i can always go sometime next week.....

ANYWAY, i drew these a long time ago. I was trying out those completely black eyes and it turned into andy sutherland (which i obviously finished off on the comp....) and the second one is nanny - my idea if she were going to have ponytails. Although.....i have a more natural hairstyle for her in mind ^^;;

P.S. i realized that andy's eye color is blue, not black.....blah, don't think of it as a sketch purposely designed for him.

EDIT: why hasn't anyone said anything (besides vampi) about the sketches~? ..........goodness, i've become a forum thread killer lately ;;>>

Important Annoucement:

As some of you know, ZiP has left this forum but fortuantely, this manga will keep on going. ZiPhas passed the torch to Chapel and I. We will be currently leading the manga.

Things will stay the same and nothing will change to the manga and its developement. Hopefully we can get this manga up and running soon

Ah, my thanks for the information. I was wondering how this project would fare in ZiP's absence.

Um yeah, well I cuncur. I do wish someone would send me what photos we will be useing and the over all story and where it should be going from here. Or if zip as all these... someone make me as informed as one of the leading guys should be.

What what i know, we need character artists, background artists, mecha artists, writers, ploters, and pre panel scketch artist. So someone tell me how all that fars as well. I am on as one of the character artists.

Chapel

Personally I'd like to hear everyones opinions on what we have so far and if the ends are what we all invision. This won't work if we got eight people running in different directions. I would like to know if every one likes the character designs the story and the names of the characters.

Chapel

The character designs....well....I think I'll just draw them all, even though Zip has given some "guidlines". I have no clue how the thing will end because Zip hadn't given me enough information to give a guess. SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME THEY KNOW THE GENERAL ENDING ZIP HAD IN MIND!!! I think we can play around with the names a little more....and the "samurai"....I was imagining a different type of samurai.......gah.....I'm frustrated that Zip left.........I feel left hanging here and unsure of the future of this thing.
We need a desgin of the ship too. I was envisioning a ship like the archangel (I think it was called the archangel) from Gundam SEED.

I'll treat this like it's all over from the beginning again. That's the best way for me to handle a leadership change.

ah....nvm....I think I'll still be working off of what we have....

This will make writing very... interesting, to put it positively. When you have things more developed, I will do my best to put everything together with Lochaber Axe.

Hey UC I love the way you write. I don't think anyone knows the ending to this, I would ask you two to put your heads together and give us at least a place to go Zip never even gave me the how or what of this story so I say we take what little we have and let the writers have a go with it. I'm not dropping responsibilities, however the witers would be best to tell us where they would like this to go. Let the artists conceptualize and the writers show us where to put our characters.

Chapel

I agree that plot before characters is easier, but not all manga-ka work in such a manner. Shaman King, for example, had characters before plot.

Personally, I'd be in favor of beginning with a stereotypical plot device (crew of misfits sent to a remote corner of the galaxy to get them out of the way, though you know they'll get involved) and then abruptly ripping the plot device apart.

This I really agree with, a simple plot device of misfits is perfect to get the ball rolling just through the audience in the mix. We can do flash back scenes to explain their origins.

Chapel

Just hope that as the ball rolls along, it doesn't cause an avalanche. They can cart away obstructions from the mountain, but they can also cart away people too.

Whenever you want to start UC, just PM me about it.
