Some art ideas I had

Before working on Nortubel, I used to draw art and some of it was crossover based, other was based on my characters. But then I focused more on gamedev and later art I posted online was mostly stuff made for my game. A lot of it looks ugly but if you can tell I still wanted to focus on stuff I liked and not care about drawing popular stuff. I still had some ideas for art, which may not ever be done but they were pretty much the following:

Guts from Berserk as a Rankin Bass Hobbit.

Dhomochevsky and Iko from Blame but Iko is a balloon.

Sucy from LWA and En from Dorohedoro interacting.

Ranking Bass Eowyn x Casca Berserk.

Blame's Silicon life x Quake 2 Strogg.

Captain Sternn (Heavy Metal) and General Sturnn (Warhammer 40K).

Fritz the Cat/Zootopia crossover.

Mensab Seu X Farnese Serpico.

Turok and Yakari.

Gravity Rush Raven X Fuuma Kotaro of Tenkaichi.

Dragon's Crown Amazon and Hexen Fighter/Baratus

Mostly more anime/manga stuff (Berserk, Big O, LWA, Dorohedoro, Lupin the 3rd at the time).

Some characters I like doing that lunch in the lunch in the construction beam photo

Marvel vs Capcom joke with Elena from SF and Barracuda from Punisher.

Maybe a Totally Spies/Aeon Flux crossover

The Boys (Comic/Ennis version) and The Ripping Friends crossover

Doom Eternal Tyrant x D64 cut Cyberdemon.

And a bunch of other OC related art, which probably doesn't have to be done because I've made it for the game.

Captain Sternn's Trial | Heavy Metal | Creature Features

It really is what's happening and you actually see the characters and what they're playing and there is a ball like the dreaded locknar and it is not a crystal absorbs radiation and he is at this point he was inserted into a hulk and they did regret doing it aha quite often. He's like our son in a few ways they bought him a lot he has skill he has knowledge a lot more about killing and doesn't have the temperament for this massive idiotic show the more like a putting on and says it's stupid and it really is so his private already and this idiot starts saying stupid s*** while he's on the stand and Trump in the end he turns back and it gives him the money anyways but he's injects him and it comes back to him he's on the moon right here and he gets ejected he doesn't do it but he helps that's because of this incident but the money is very important.

If somebody coming out of nowhere the the seemingly comes out of nowhere this video but it's not Donald Trump has a plan for money just like his wife and she says it too this is going to come out and then you're f***** and she's waiting around for him to have money because he's planning on getting him some and controlling the situation so he's screwing around social security all the time and he has all this money in the bank and money is social security owes but he wants to put him through hell before he gets him anything and he's avoiding that and that's what he wants to do and this guy is a freaking nutcase next door and keeps on bothering and attacking him to run his assimine and I'm plan. So when he tried to hire Todd as a lawyer Todd figured it out. He said he won't let him get extra money or work for anyone for the price of tea in China or allow his money to go to him now people are figured out outside of here and a lot of them because they're not letting him have any money at all and they try and send it and they're killing these trumpsters and it's a ridiculous thing to do but the max had him do it and it's not really that profound it's just that the guy never was going to end up doing it yeah that's right he wants to hold him in the mental hospital and then prison and threatened for a ton of stuff and then running through a meaningless period But really it just does not work that way. And that means that he has most of our son's money and everyone knows it there it's in the banks investments and he's controlling those and people want them out of those investment firms and items that were his and control over social security there's a couple more things that he is in possession of that would have give him control over the money and it would be parts of the military where's the nuclear weapons are and he has control over part of the food distribution and water and supplies and grocery stores and some other items like that but police and the hospitals all the time for a sudden not to have anything but really the max did it to society to threaten society and to scapego Trump who's dying that is his entire clan permanently. Soon people will figure out is true no someone figured it out but just lawyer issue his really opened it up and people found him to be a moron and he just try to do it backwards so the max are trying to fight over control of the money and found these people to be everywhere and there's too many of them and they're far too arrogant for their blood so they're cutting them down to ribbons and we're going to post this stupid son of a b**** is going to get it now

Agreed. No other segment stands out as being so thoroughly enjoyable the whole way thru. It has the exact right mixture of horror, violence, and humor. And the music is great.

It’s been long enough, and I’ve seen the movie enough times that I feel like I can honestly say it’s kind of a mediocre movie. The animation is great, but the stories are a jumbled mess. Seeing the segments broken up into music video format honestly works a lot better.

Heavy Metal Special: One Step Beyond

First Saturday in May

Today, the first Saturday in May, is Free Comic Book Day. Comic shops get some special comics to be give away, for free, as a ceIebration of the medium and encourage collectors to come out and get some comics. I joined some local comic creators at my neighborhood comic shop and we did sketches for tips from open to close. I don’t know if we had an impact on the business today. People mostly showed up for free comic books but we did well. Given my share of the days tips, I made more money than I did at the last convention I worked. I may never get enough money to make comics my day job but a day like today almost gives me hope.

The best part of today was spending time with my friends, doing what we love most: drawing comics and talking about comics. Comic fans all have an opinion on their favorites as well as their least favorites. Reading comics is a singular experience. It’s the perfect passtime for introverts. When you go to a movie or a sporting event you share the experience with a large group of people. When you read a comic or a book that experience is yours alone. When you have an opportunity to share your thoughts on comics with like minded individuals it suddenly broadens that experience. You realize you’re not alone.

These days it’s hard to talk about comic books without talking about comic book movies. I love the MCU movies as much as anybody. As a kid I used to wonder what a film adaptation of my favorite comics would look like. My only gripe is that the movies haven’t really brought the masses to to comic shops to get a look at the source material. Part of the trouble is that in many ways the source material is unrecognizable from the film adaptations. That’s a topic for another long discussion. Another issue is the personal nature of comics isn’t always what people who need that event experience they get from a movie.

Comics have an inherent cinematic quality that implies a connection to film but comics can do things differently, even better, than film can. In a movie, time moves from scene to scene, just like a comic moves from panel to panel. Normally, time is pretty much linear. Sometimes a director plays with the timing by giving you events out of sequence like Quentin Tarantino did in Resevoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction. Many directors use a sequence of scenes in a montage to show progress, a little pocket inside a film to mark the passage of time outside of the main plot of the film. In a comic you can do all of those things easily but one thing that comics do that film doesn’t really do is manipulate time.

I know that films can have slow motion sequences. I’m talking about how comics can add panels to slow time down and then take them away to speed things up. Check out this example from a classic issue of the sci-if/fantasy anthology, Heavy Metal.

Above is Captain Sternn by Bernie Wrightson. Wrightson played with time like a master in this one. This whole story really only takes a couple minutes to read through but Wrightson slows things down to draw out a scene and then speeds it up to create urgency and suspense, all just by varying the panel size and number per page. It’s just nine pages but it feels like so much more, in the best possible way. Smarter people than me have touted the merits of comic storytelling far better than I can. Go out there and read some good comics. I’ll see you next May.
