I've got all these awesome ideas for Transformers fan-fictions, but I've can't deside how the put them out there. I've got 3 seperate series that I wanna do, it's just how I were to do them is the problem.
I've thought of doing a hand drawn comic, but I'm not skilled enough to do it. I would first have to learn to draw better, and then to take the time to draw every page. It would take a very long time to make.
Then I thought of doing a picture comic, like EPR did. But my stories are very serious and in-depth. Where as EPR's was primarily comical, so I don't think that would work.
Then I saw this program on a tech show that can take a picture and turn it into a drawing. So I got the idea that I use that program to draw the characters for me, draw the backgrounds myself(most of which I can reuse), and then put it together and edit it on my PC. But I can't remember what the program was called and I would need an editing tool like Photoshop too, which I don't have.

You could possibly do it in CGI and reuse the models.

Reasonable free graphics software:

This sparks my interest.

I've had a huge premise of a thirteen chapter fan-fic in my mind for years now, but have the problem of not being a confident writer.

Is there anywhere I can see sample work that people have done using these programs to gauge if I want to use this?

My fan-fic has a mixture of well-known and self-created TFs within it and I want to see if they will look close enough to the CGI in the original TF shows.

It got used for the Spider-Man 2 pre-vis, so it's fairly professional kit.

Lots of info out there: http://www.blendernation.com/

Or you could ask this guy what he uses: http://www.iaconcity.com/

Any idea of what was actually used on Beast Wars.

I know that it has been a long while since and that it I probably shouldn't use it with the inescapable evolution of computers and software, but just wondering.

A couple of simpler solutions would be to get an artist to draw your stories for you (but I guess you've already thoguth of that and nixed that idea) or to forego art altogether and just write these stories.
But it seems you're dead set on making this a comic project, so there goes my blather out the window...

Well, as for me, I'm working on my fourth tribute video of BW and then I might have a plan for a fifth and then I might do one, but if so it will only be one, for Beast Machines and then I'll look into this 3D software to make my fanfic a complete reality.

P.S.: then.
