HMW: Firestormers

Postby Burn » Sun Jul 25, 2010 4:12 am

Ever since Ryan flicked the switch on Heavy Metal War game, the HMW forums have been graced with many creative players. Some kitbashed, some photoshopped, some simply wrote fics while others drew renditions of their characters. But they all brought their HMW characters to life in some form.

Jason Tyler is a relatively new player to the game but he's kept on with the HMW creative tradition.

Drawing inspiration from the hugely popular Mosaics and HMW mission logs, Jason has created a short three part series entitled "Firestormers".

Anxious for more? Then stay tuned as Jason is working on the "Inferno" series based on the "Inferno" mission texts.

Thanks everyone! Any while I would appreciate if no one would "rag" on the art work - I'm completely open to constructive criticism. I'm no expert here - as you guys can even see the styles are changing a little bit each time as I test and try to see what works and what doesn't!

The art work was meant to be that way as to keep the characters portrayed in it somewhat vague in appearance. I for one love his art and the way it is laid out. Sure, I may be a little bias on this first story tho :P

Simply amazing. I play Heavy Metal War at least once a day, but this is pretty amazing! Any chance this could become a mission for either the Autobots or the Decepticons? :lol: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: :APPLAUSE: And any chance you could do another, featuring the East Cybertron Trading Co.? :lol: ;)

Only issue I have is that I also have an HMW character and OC named Warzone (who I made back when I was like 4 after watching Transformers on tv in 1994).

That said...I guess there can be an Autobot and Decepticon with the same name.

Due to his rather unique birth, Grimlock has a slow but endearing speech pattern, which can easily make you forget he's Godzilla with style. And weapons.

While having your name "sullied" by the other guy could be a problem on Cybertron, I sincerely doubt there wasn't overlap somewhere. There are just only so many combinations of letters in any gizen alphabet. Plus, we know at least 2 canon Megatrons.

I fell out of HMW, mostly due to life, though I suspect the repetition of actions wore me down, I went to hands-on things. Mosytly, I blame life. However, my HMW chars are still kicking around in my head and occasionally I draft them out in a story. Maybe when one's good enough I'll toss it in. But I'm glad to see the creativity still/back in HMW.

Well this Warzone is based off Aerialbot Commander's Warzone, I won't depict anyones character without their permission.

I created this out of an actual arena battle log between Aerialbot Commander's Warzone and a Decepticon. I made the Decepticon vague in design like because I did not seek the owners permission.

Right now I am working on the Inferno series based off of the Inferno Story Logs, then I have a two other requests.

I'm trying to keep it based in the HMW realm so I want to base all of these comics off of HMW Characters, Battles, or Missions.

And I'd love to see other people bring their artwork into it - even if it's just characters!
