Okay I am so late to finding this but it is pretty funny. Ross Scott's series of videos called Freeman's Mindare simply Scott riffing over the action in the original Half Life game as if he was the main character. It is not at all what I'd think of as Freeman's personality (although in a remarkably McCloudian trick, Half Life gives no personality to Freeman so that every person playing the games gets to fill in whatever they imagine). It isn't 100% awesome but I had to watch through all 10 of them and probably will keep up with it now that I'm thru the archives. Wow, I am a geek :)
Also, just for the record - I bought (for about $12 bucks) the Operation Anchorage expansion to Fallout 3. I really liked Fallout 3, but Operation Anchorage was not really worth it. It's short (maybe 3 or 4 hours tops) and it's very linear -- do a mission, do another one. Completely unlike the open-ended environment of the original game. And the whole "simulator but you can die" bit was pretty unbelievable as a story. I'm really hoping the next expansion stories are LOTS better. (The next one is "The Pitt" - coming this month actually).
Despite starting off the year with a humble idea of working on making comics simply to get a little better I've slipped off the rails this month. For all kinds of other stuff - work, family, soccer, LIFE. Anyhow I've posted three of the Super Jr comics I've been making to play with Manga Studio (inking on the WACOM) and I hope to start another page of that this week.
I think I did this one of Tom Banner back in February? I guess the face is okay but ugh, everything else... his body looks like it's made out of cardboard (flat flat flat!).
Ideas, ideas, ideas. Check. Time and skill - still working on that...
Last year drawing this random adventure storyline for my lets-make-comics comic I decided to try and fit the characters into the FISHBONE EP album cover pose/scene. So below is the cover of the Fishbone EP:
Here's my sketch from last year with a quick coloring and some attempt to clean up the inking. I'm realizing I really need to do a better job of inking (or maybe start inking digitally on the WACOM) -- I can't always do a lot of fills because I've got too many "gaps" in the inking...
