Hi guys, another issue at last. First 4 pages are up then will try to scan the images and letter the other pages over the next week or so. Apologies if it seems a bit slow in places, the amin point of this initial 4-parter is to set the scene and establish the characters for what carries on after this so it's necessary I'm afraid. What I have planned for the 4 issues after that though is all action, action, action! My brain moves faster, and more ambitiously, than my hand I'm afraid.
This has been an enjoyable comic. I loved the G1 comic, and it's nice to see someone else's take on what happened next ^^ The art takes me back to the days I was scribbling out TF comics (although for me at the time, it was high art, and I'm not much better now ) but I'm seeing huge improvements in the art and story as you get used to working on this story. Roll on the rest ^^
Where can I find parts 1 and 2? And is it possible to get the pages in higher res format? It's a bit hard to read the text
I'm not sure what the problem with the text is guys, sorry. I followed all the links and it was readable. It's 8pt typeface but any larger and I'd not be able to put much text per frame. Is it possible that the image is autosizing to the window and that you need to hover over it then enlarge it using the bottom right hand icon? I can email people the images direct if they want. The links to parts 1 & 2 are below. Should hopefully post a few more pages today or tomorrow. Thanks http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/thread74082.html http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/thread74737.html
Looking good. Does this issue end your story arc, or is it continued for another four issues? Wasn't clear from your first post which was the case. Also I like the first two issues (I was waiting till it was complete before looking at the third). But I noticed there's no credits listing who drew it/wrote it -- nor are there any details on your public profile. Fan comics like these tend to end up being mirrored on peoples sites, passed around on cds and by email by fans, etc. and it'd be a shame if no-one even knew who the writer/artist was.
Thanks for the interest. This is the third part of a four part opening story which sets the scene for the rest of the continuity i.e. answers the question 'what happened to all the different groups of TFs following the G1 comic'. I have planned out the events of the following 4 issues (up to 88) in detail and they will be 2 2-parters, 1 set on Cybertron, the other on Earth. (without giving too much away) Unfortunately it's hard to produce the comics at any decent speed due to other commitments as I would very much like to post them as whole issues. Instead, I try to post them in chunks when I can to keep people interested and not leave too much of a gap between issues. (ahem, Dreamwave cough cough) As for credit, I may add at least a pen-name to the comics if the interest is that strong. I dont mind them being reproduced, so long as others don't try to claim that they did all the work for it. Thanks guys.
Just an update for those who keep checking back for the rest of the issue. I have pages 5, 6, 7 and 12 finished. Only prob is the scene that starts halfway on page 7 lasts through till halfway along page 10, so I didn't like to post an incomplete scene as it makes bad reading. Therefore, soon as I've finished the whole issue I'll put up the other 8 pages. Should be early next week by the looks of things as I'm only short about 10 sketches. Thanks.
Here we go, the rest of issue 3. It's mainly filler for upcoming stories but hope is enjoyable none the less.
Page 12 is on my work computer so will post at a later stage - it's only part 3 of the 'story so far' update. I have about 20 of the 90 or so drawings required for issue 4 so it looks like about another month, although work is a bit slow so I may be able to churn it out faster.
The artwork isn't brilliant (although it's better than I could do) but the story's really got me interested... please keep it up.
