Description #01 - "Absolute Power"

'These comics tell a story. Story about bad... story about... even more bad.'

So. This is the start of the comic I'm doing. It seemed more true to the nature of the Neverhood to do these traditionally rather than in digital media, so what you see here is exactly how it looks in my sketchbook. Colouring all that blackness was haaaaard.
This first episode is special so it gets to be all dramatic and B&W. And nobody's even going to read these because the fandom's been dead for several years now, hahar!

I knew this looked so familiar. I had played through the PS1 game "Skull Monkeys" and recognized Kleo as Klayman...I just could't put it completely together until I looked it up. Excellent!

This is an awesome comic. Awesome.

And the fandom's not dead, it's just resting.

I'm sure the entire fandom will find this eventually. All 25 of us.

The shading looks great, it must have taken forever! =O

Yay for the whole fandom! xP

The shading was a bit time consuming but then I bought a gigantic pen. >:3

OMG! I LOVED THIS GAME SO MUCH UNTIL THE CD BROKE! KLOGG WAS MY FAVORITE!!! *huggz* Note the two Gs.

You bring up such happy memories...Neverhood was the only decent game out there with decent controls...What happened...?

The fandom can't be called dead when there are people who still think that Neverhood is fun and exiting.
I love Neverhood.

Your lettering is perfect! How long did you work to get the effect of a neverhood font while being hand drawn?!?!

Pyreo In reply to X-Quantum-Anomaly-X [2007-05-22 08:03:12 +0000 UTC]

Hm, I didn't work on that at all. I just typed the text out on word, made it the Neverhood font, and copied it out on the paper.

X-Quantum-Anomaly-X In reply to Pyreo [2007-05-22 17:17:54 +0000 UTC]

but you did actually write it correct?

Pyreo In reply to X-Quantum-Anomaly-X [2007-05-22 17:51:45 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I wrote it out myself, just copying the font from the computer, it really wasn't hard.

Very nice. I hope thats not pencil black because then it would have taken forever. =o

Pyreo In reply to jut5star [2007-05-19 17:36:16 +0000 UTC]

Nah, I did the solid black in a marker pen that was bought especially... xD But I had to go over it a few times to get total darkness.

Thaaats fuuuun. *waits for more*

Lovely contrast with the black and white, too. It sets up the story for being a dark one. ^^

Glacideas [2007-05-19 01:11:21 +0000 UTC]

The black does look very black, which is a feat in it's self.

I never finished Neverhood as the library always cut down our time on playing it and I don't remember much.

Man, you're bringing back so many memories. It was always a choice between Neverhood or Freddie the Fish (or whatever that yellow fish and green fish were called). Good times ^^

Yay for memories! *insert Axel quote*
Not that I want to make you feel bad, but... completing The Neverhood is so rewarding, after you've spent days wandering around a creepy uninhabited world...
