Anyway, yeah, already told you what I thought of those. But I actually hadn't seen the coloring jobs above, and I gotta the say, the Munch one rocks my fucking world. |

Lyddea sketch #2 http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ctra_sheet.jpg Actra sketch #2 *raised her wings a bit and smallified her calve muscles.* NOTE TO ME: Work on giving her wing-bones a little muscletone. It looks like a tarp held up by toothpicks. Maybe lower her tail a few degrees. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...or_smaller.jpg LOOK OUT IT GIT U IN SL33P |

Tapewoimz. They may look like 40-foot long viperfish with arms, but they're actually related to birds. They live deep underground, and create vast tunnel systems, some of which were unknowingly used by the Mudokons in the creation of their temples. They have a very laid-back lifestyle, and the group Actra and the others meet haven't moved from their home in years. Unfortunately, their tunnel is placed along the sewer system for New Rupturefarms, which is... really starting to piss them off. Why, if it wasn't for their peace-loving nature and the giant, hallucinogenic mushrooms, why they might just do something about it. Oh, did I forget to mention the giant, hallucinogenic mushrooms? Premo stuff, man. Killer. It's like, all your troubles just... melt away, man. Then your hands start to grow and shrink in front of your eyes, and before you know it, your pupils dialate you think you're a car. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ll_smaller.jpg Skull of a Tapewoim. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...et_smaller.jpg This one was a little crooked. Nothing a little Photoshop can't handle. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...et_smaller.jpg BOOBS. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...xpressions.jpg Alf expressions. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...xpressions.jpg Munch expressions. |
:eek: :cheer: wow Dip those are SOOOO GOOOOD:D I like the way you draw the Noctero's, Alf and also Munch:p

Thanks, ladies.

Size Comparison Chart (incomplete)
A size-comparison chart for the cast of Actra's Oddysee. Note Roid's new design and the 4 new characters: (I've linked the image- it was way too big.) http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...k2/Wendell.jpg Wendell Voice actor I would choose: Patric Warburton Wendell owes the group a life-debt after Actra saves him from a group of Bigbro Sligs (who were really after her). He's built like a tank, and for some reason, is much larger than most Mudokons. He's loyal to a fault, and never says die. He's named after my Digital Publishing teacher. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...stikk2/Nac.jpg Nac Voice actor I'd choose: Charles Adler (thouhg he speaks in a very declaritive way; think Doctor Orpheus from Venture Bros) Actra, Alf, and Munch are referred to him by Wendell (who knows him through the "Friend of a freind" process). When they meet him, Nac is proforming his "Mystical Forces with Nac" magical act. The team soon finds out that Nac is really an out-of-work Necormancer, who quit due to to many "I want to see my loved one again" requests. Actra needed a vast army, and Nac readily agreed. Finally, someone who wanted to put his skills to some real use! http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...on_smaller.jpg Judd Voice actor I'd choose: Jeff Glenn Bennett (Talks like an elequent southerner, like Loveless of Wild Wild West or Tom Hanks' character from The Ladykillers) Juddrey Theodore Glukkon started where Mullock left off and re-built Rupturefarms, a throne which he had then sat on for 15 years. But instead of hiring Mudokons to do his work and getting his ass handed back to him by Abe, he decided to locate a new race to exploit. The Noctero were high on his list. Taking up a new slave force without knowing much about them is risky business, and the Cartel made him promise to keep them contained, or his business would be shut down. But now Actra is on the loose, and he needs to make damn sure that her little stunt doesn't attract media attention. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ov_smaller.jpg Borsikov Voice actor I'd use: Anyone who can pull off a deep-voiced Russian accent. A much more compident general than Dripik (and he proclaims it proudly), his army is more of a mercinary service and he runs it. Judd inlists his help after word spread of Actra's escape. He is stern and intimidating, and runs his army like a well-oiled machine. He has a flying slig assistant named Ike, who has a german accent. "Yes, mein leige." http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...id_smaller.jpg A better picture of Roid Roid Before the team leaves Afterworld for the mortal realm, Munch meets up with his old aquaintances, Humphrey and Irwin. They're required to train him to better use his head port, or they spend the next 2 centuries in solitary. As a better, more electrified Munch hops away, Humphrey sticks him with a syringe. They claim it's a "body enhancer," and Munch doesn't know how right they are. Back in the mortal realm, and after they enlist the aide of Wendell, Munch gets sick and tired of being teased by Alf. So sick of it, in fact, that he becomes miffed, angry, and then enraged. His body quakes and he grows to an immense size. His anger has triggered the steroids that were ingected into him, warping his appearance and making him almost invincible. He attacks the team, only to be stopped by Wendell. Once he calms down and reduces in size, he sees the damage his rampage has caused, and the friends he almost killed. Other new stuff http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ardMembers.jpg (Self-explanitory) http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...s1_smaller.jpg http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...s2_smaller.jpg Mudokon residents of Afterworld http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...de_smaller.jpg Another view of Roid. PURE RAGE. (Heh... you know, "Pure Rage" would be a great title for the issue that introduces Roid.) |
Holy crappers! Roid's HUGE! But very cool. :D Love the new char's, what happened to the Mudokon residents of Afterworld?
Anyway, up to your usual standard as always, and lookin' forward to more, and for Actra's Oddysee as well. :D |
hey, wow! fantastic arts :fuzgrin:
|
:
One had an axe to his head, another was riddled with bullets, one was beheaded, and another had something impale him/blast through him. |
Eeee *cringes* nasty... Is there anyone in the Afterworld that died naturally? Can't wait to see this all played out Dipstikk. :D You really should send it to Lanning. He'd lap it up. :D

Noctero culture
-The Noctero were once great conquerers, ruthless barberians, and cunning warriors, but something in their history caused them to hang up their spears and become peaceful and non-violent. This, unfortunately, made them easy targets as replacement slaves for the sects of the Magog Cartel that had freed the Mudokons. -Noctero traditionally paint their eyelids and lips black, to symbolize the shame of their past. Most Nocteros in recent generations, however, have forgotten why they do it and just do it. Some younger Noctero paint their bottom lip red as a way to rebel against the old traditons, which they find to be stupid and unnecessary. -Being unable to fly makes the Males the best housekeepers and nest-guardsmen. The females do the hunting and gathering. -Noctero makes mate for life, so choosing a mate is especially delicate. They usually date for up to 4 years, just to make sure that they're right for each other. -Noctero males usually shave one side of their head while letting the other side grow out, as well as pulling it back (think Dracula). Female "do's" vary from very straight like Actra's, to pulled back, to a variation of the two. In recent years, some females have embraced a split-do like the males. -The Noctero speak in our English, but write things down in what look Hyroglyphics. Because of this, many Noctero cannot read the strange language that the Industrialists use (our form of writing, with letters), and have to memorize the different shapes of the words. -Noctero are naturally attracted to dark, moist places, due to the centuries they've spent inside of caves. Sunlight scares them, which is why Actra is so nervous once she is ejected from New Rupturefarms and into the outside world. Some Noctero even prefer to live in the factory than to venture outside! -The Noctero worship many gods. One of which is the Archivist, a female who's appearance depends on the conditions of her people. If times are good for the Noctero, she's the picture of beauty. But now, when times are grim, she becomes a dark and woeful entity (think Clive Barker's "Tortured Souls" toyline). Another entity is the Hunter. He is said to be the bringer of a good harvest. Hunter is portrayed as asexual, and has the broad wings distinctive of a female. But he also has the general build of a male, and is referred to as a "he." He was once the overseer of many great battles as well, but since the Noctero became a peaceful race, he didn't see the need for that part of his job. |
I think your art is great. I like all the afterworld stuff especially. :)

To everyone: Be sure to read through the Noctero Biology and Culture posts. Some of them tie into the story at different points. |

I'm redoing the original picture with the updated design. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...a_portrait.jpg A saucy picture of Lyddea You know I'm a sucker for a Noc with big knockers. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...2/MudSkull.jpg Mudokon skull study. |
Nice, I really like the redo of the Actra picture. I think you've perfected the wing design now, looks realistic enough but Odd. I don't think you could draw a bad piccy even if yer tried. :D
|
Thanks, Lobo. :D
And I've also updated what Afterworld is. I want it to be more like a halfway point (like purgitory, but nix the infinate white, and replaced that with a Barlowe-esque landscape).There are different offices for the "higher-ups" to decide which would best suit each case and person waiting there. There are departments like "Wrongful Death Cases," "Haunting permits," "The Apocalypse Planner," and "Ressurection Loans," which is where the trio needs to go. I use the term, "loan," because in exchange for being ressurected, they must give something back to them. Luckily, Actra meets with one of her gods, the Archivist, who says that her only debt is to ensure the continuation of her species and to take down New RuptureFarms. There's also a "Spirit Exorcizing" service that was recently added, and Actra gets help with her problem. |
Whoa, you've done alot of artwork and designs, you realy thought out Actra's Oddysee. The ideas and the designs you make up are pretty inspressive, I especially like the ideas you have for the Afterworld. And your drawings look better than ever.
Tapewoirm creature reminds of Searex slightly, but it looks cool. Oh and I think you keep forgeting the horns on Roid ;) |
I did give Roid spines, but the horns on his head were omitted because I want him to have a strong resemblance to Munch. Roid also had buck teeth and clawed toes in the original design, which I replaced with sharp teeth and clawless feet since, again, Munch doesn't have those. Besides, the buck teeth also look kind of comical. Roid is the embodiment of Munch's anger, rage, and frustration, and I don't want the readers to laugh when they see him.
Oddish, how good are you at mechanical design? I may need you to assist me in a few concepts. My strong point is biological creatures, and I can't draw mechanical things worth a damn. I need a guy to help me by designing New Rupturefarms, and I think I can take it from there once I can see what I'm dealing with. |
I like those character profiles, and the pictures are great too. The facial expressions are amazing! I can't find any better words for your drawings.
The Afterworld idea is interesting, it's kinda like Dante's Inferno from a different perspective. A few characters visiting an 'afterlife' area and meeting relatives... And there's something in it from ancient Greek literature, isn't there? Roid could easily join Fuzzles for dinner. :D All of this artwork could work as a game or a movie, I think. |

I love the Glukkons you made! I can sort of do good factory settings. I did a few doodles which I never posted.
|
Heeeee! Love the offices idea, Odd, interesting and very fun. :D Agree with dripik there is a Dante-esque quality to the whole Afterworld, you just got to love it. Will there be any updates on the actual comic anytime soon Dip?
|
I really like the way you draw personages.
... It's taking too long for me to think of what to say right now... Nice job! Hat off to you.;) |

Gawd, it's like a ghost town here.
http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...rs_smaller.jpg I colored Roid. I'll be adding the colored Munch in next to him and submit that to DeviantART. |
OMFG i LIEK bGi mILK JUBBIES! ^_______________^
I really like that image of Actra on the log covered with wildlife and things. Do you intend to ever colourized it? Roid can so kick ass. Like, with a super big fist and all. |
Oh yeah, I do intend to color it. Mom wants me to. She has the old version at her office and was excited to hear that I was remaking it.
|
Ooooh those are very nice Dip! sorry if I haven't replied:( I've been pretty busy... I wanna see more of yer art:p I like the Glukkon the most; he looks quite mean;)
See Ya! - DS |
Yeh, I've been busy too, so sorry for not replying sooner. I love the redo Actra as well, can't wait to see it coloured and lookin' forward to a comic update. :D

A picture of Actra flying. I don't do enough of these. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...lf_smaller.jpg Alf inked. |
*Shrugs* The actra picture with showing the..uhh...Baby milk department(Sorry if I just offended someone..)..Quite surprised me. Nevertheless the drawings all look great!
Yes I indeed want to see more of your glukkon and roid, but what about nac? He looks badass man and that gives drawings imo a nice touch ;). |
:

Keep up the sweet work! |
Yeah, Lyddea's the one with the big boobs, Actra's are smaller and better for flying.

Holy shit, man. I want to father your babies beside a mother mole. That image is just del grande.
|
Oh wow. That's brilliant! :D
Just a question, any particular reason you cahnge the Noctero colour scheme to grey more then brown? Looks cool either way though and the wings are definitly better. :D |
Well, technically, her base color is still brown, but I wanted to go for a much darker look, to fit the theme of the comic.
And Super Munch, I'm afraid of moles. Can we use the ducks this time instead? They're more vocal anyway. (If such a place as hell truly exists, I'm going there...) |
