Dinobot comic

Postby ShinMusashi44 » Thu Nov 10, 2005 1:31 am

I've Slowly been working on a short comic for Myth Wars. So i chose MetalSamamon's design of Tengu Dinobot. I've only got 3 pages so far. I'll update when i finish more. And it's my first time with dialogue so it wont be the best.

Great work.. just one thing, and I may be completely wrong here, I have no idea.. did the women really wear their kimonos that immodestly in feudal(?) Japan?

Perhaps, if her neckline were closed at first, then torn open to reveal her cleavage when one of the men grabs for her?

Yah, I agree, I mean for fan purposes it may be fine, but if aiming for some historical accuracy, I don't belive the women showed cleavage or skin at all. I have to recheck, but I also think that geishas didn't even do that as well.

Besides that little crit, everything else is fantastic.:)

That's great work!! Excellent!

Love the stitched cloak and hat for Dinobot!

Good use of panels and good job on pacing.. have you done this before?

Ahh! Now I want to do a comic!

Keep it up - and please, sir, may we have some more?

Yes i know they didn't show their chest :D I did that on purpose. Also if we want to be 100% accurate her chest should be alot smaller as well. It was just there for that lust/sexy kinda of thing. I could always change it.

Dark_Lord_Prime- sure you can ink them. Do you need them in a bigger size. Or can you make them bigger after you ink them? Cause Limabean is gonna color them. So should i make the pics bigger before you ink them or can you make it bigger after you ink them?

Also to everyone. Should i change her clothing to be more real?

also to everyone. The only skin japanese really showed off was the neck. In japanese culture they see the back of the neck as the most sexyest part of the female body.

816x1055 should be plenty big. I can upscale 'em when I'm done, but that might distort them slightly. I don't think I've ever tried to scale any of my pics up before.. is that the dimensions you originally scanned 'em at?

Probably. You can still have the fan-service cleavage if you do what I suggested, though.. have her robe be torn open when that one guy grabs her there.

Im not sure what dimensions they are. When i go to photoshop the resolution is 96. Does that help at all? I can scan them a double their size and send them. Would they be to big then for you to ink?

96 is the DPI (dots-per-inch). The resolution is 816 pixels X 1055 pixels, which is actually pretty big. Lemme load one up in PS and see what I'm working with. :)

Heh...shin was kind of enough to PM me these drawings first; speaking that is my Dinobot design that he's using; but I must comment on it here as well!

I LOVE IT!!

Not just because of who it is; but also the actual art as well. It looks very profeesional; and well done.

Granted; it's not 100% accurate to old Japanese times, but this isn't a historical document; it's a comic. However, I agree that shin could do some minor mods like her clothing and perhaps a smaller 'bust'; but only slight changes; nothing drastic.

:P

But it does look great!!!!

Thanks MS, And i did change the kimono. But i didn't post the changes.

Also can anyone think of a cool sub-name for the comic? Cause i want to do covers as well. And i can't just call it Myth Wars:dinobot.

Maybe something like, "Myth Wars: Hero Reborn" or "Myth Wars: The Return of Dinobot"?

Niiiiice! :D

And as for the title, what about these:
"The Return of Honor"
"Honor's Warrior"
"The Spirit Warrior"

So are you going to do comics of other characters as well?

Personally I think you should have left the Kimono the way it was. I liked it :twisted: :lol: .

Seriously, people, there is a robot wearing a cape and hat in feudal(ish) Japan. How realistic is that. I say Make this as pop culture as you want. And As Jeff Foxworthy said "slut her up just a little bit" :lol: :lol:

also who says the guy with the Pike didn't make her open her kimono to begin with.
